When I say "slow-walked" I mean the deliberate, methodical, strategic way forward (generally speaking). With caution along the way to ensure this step works in accordance with the next 10. As opposed to rushing things and having to then do 10 things you didn't want to do before you can take the next step.
In the early days of KBLB, I don't believe the method was being applied. Only when Mr. T could guarantee himself he had a viable product then back it with a viable way to bring it to market with someone beyond himself to make the dream a reality, was he then able to institute the slow-walk method.
No doubt he erred along the way. Everybody does. But to think we are what we were at this juncture in KBLB's "viability" is to fail to look at accomplishments and what is to become of KBLB.
