"A release saying they are producing samples"

I think that came out a long time ago...

"As opposed to getting today's news without knowing we are "allowed" to be producing samples."

kblb has always been "allowed" to produce samples?.. and I believe they have been doing so for quite some time...

if you are talking about Vietnam, I don't believe this pr has anything to do with Vietnam...directly

the samples that kblb have been sending out came from its Michigan pilot facility...

ES1, it is my understanding that with the past news and this PR that it would be understood that we are producing in Vietnam. IMO, Kim would not release this PR without being absolutely sure we could produce the amounts of material POLARTEC needs to service it's customers. You know how careful and conservative he is with his releases. I'm sure POLARTEC and others have been waiting for confirmation as well before they putout their own press release.

It's been a long wait for me as well. This has tried my patience as well, and I've made my voice heard as a shareholder.

From what I know the Vietnam production line is in place ... samples are being produced in Vietnam. I believe it is just a matter of ramping up the volume.

But we'll see soon, there is other news in the pipeline as well I am sure, it's just a matter of timing. Kim may wait until this POLARTEC news is fully digested before releasing other news.

I'm relieved we have finally received third party confirmation from POLARTEC and that they have been working with us for 3 years on our fibers and yarns. This statement may imply that the spider silk has been thoroughly tested and is ready for market? This fact alone tells me others who have received samples may be ready to release news.

Just my thoughts and reading tea leaves and information I gather.

I am just always puzzled by Kim's public info releases and his PR plan



I am very grateful to get something that speaks to where we really are, and he didn't half step this or slow play it. It means we are ready to go. A revealing and de-risking day for a good number of folks that needed it. It is going to take a few PR's like this to get us where we should have been.

We'll soon find out if someone has been holding us back and if there is money behind Kraig, like I think there is. There is no way smart money isn't taking a hard look at us right now. Waive your rules and step up or let our sugar daddy bring it to you. Either way Kim has more ammo and he has wanted to cut loose, but wisely conserved. This was kickoff I believe. That said, he sure held back until everything aligned..... Puzzling indeed, but I am just going to see what happens now that Kim pulled the trigger. Maybe I am overestimating where we should be. Maybe you are still underestimating where we are and where the price is going to be....but not too much.

We got the news that confirmed my/our thinking today. Have fun.
