In my opinion he is waaaaay underpaid. Even more so when he was deferring his salary(ies). I'm not sure if the Mr. T angst is more because he hasn't done things the way certain individuals believe he should have done them to this point, or because Spider Silk hasn't hit the market yet and there is nowhere to turn to (cast blame) then here with KBLB. Either way, Mr. T has chosen to do things HIS WAY. I appreciate getting the products right with full protections along the way. Definitely that way over just spitting out something to say it has Spider Silk in it. Mr. T wants his products to showcase the actual properties of Spider Silk. That, to me, is to be commended! But, then again, that's the way I would do it, too. I'd protect the living crap out of EVERYTHING the entire way and make sure any Spider Silk product our company releases adheres to what makes Spider Silk so "game-changing." Otherwise it is just a novelty item with Spider Silk in it.

Why do you think funding is not a Slam Dunk?

No, he is not way underpaid. He is way overpaid, especially with no products and no revenues.

I am still at the point of not making it about what he is paid. It wasn't my idea and successes that will pay off. I get the anger and frustration though. Who likes being in the dark.

No, funding is not a Slam Dunk. It is a half court shot.

No one has a fiber like DS. And there are few people that know if it is truely a slam dunk, or a half court shot. Even slam dunks can be missed....UCONN vs. San Deigo State was a good miss by the ultimate winners.

I called it a shoo-in because it is a competition and I think they will be a winner. "You go with what you know" and I know the few people that do know what the 99% pure SS fiber properties are. If that is cow manure in a PR, then the DoD asked for our cow manure in an RFI. They might well go for funding several of the top performing companies, or one might stand out.

I also know if anyone has something better than DS, they are keeping it a secret. In the marketing world we live in, everyone is needing funding, so it is a low to no probability anyone has them beat. KBLB has been in the SS catbird seat for years.

Even if it is a half court shot, KBLB is the front runner for making it.
