< The second point..
is most important because it is my feeling that many of the potential purchasers are waiting Torvec out because they don't think the company has the ability to go into production and therefore become a threat. This puts large companies in a do or die purchase mode, and if TOVC is in production at that point you can bet that the price will be way higher.>


That is a good point..There is that very affordable, very expansive, factory ready building in Seneca Falls N.Y that happens to be owned and developed by one of our board Members??And oh yeh it is in Senator Clinton's home territory and apparently her staffers think they may just have some job creation type stuff over here In Bushnell's Basin..
somebody call Ceberus...tell em they may have a better return on their investment without all that unsightly pension stuff too...
alright that is enough enthusiasm..back to Missouri

My instincts tell me some of the same speedway...

I think there will be multiple deals that gain speed and size which will at some point force the hand of an acquirer..... They will come in many shapes and sizes...deals that may appear smaller on the intitial revenue side, such as those highlighted in today's CEO update, morph into propduction deals..those produce the measurable revenues and further validate the tech in the market place...granted that the process is excruciatingly long, but the wait will be worth it...

As you say, the company is positioned to go in what ever direction makes the most sense for each technology...today's CEO update seems to be indicating that all projects discussed at the shareholder meeting continue and then some, despite what some here seem to try and imply..Torvec is moving into the sales stage....

'I think the reality is that this thing is moving faster than anyone really knows.' You are right on the money. It's faster than Torvec thought, at least as far as NASA went. I'm sure they were thinking, 'what's taking so long', then NASA calls, then Chicago calls, then Koeningsegg calls, then Nissan calls again, and suddenly it's pedal to the metal on fronts they didn't see coming, but were happy to address.

It's probably moving faster than Eaton and others thought possible. Even though they had plenty of time to prepare for this Torvec business climate. Is it moving fast enough for someone who planned to cash out in March, no, but it is probably moving uncomfortably fast for anyone who has a big short position.

Depending on how old you are, 10 years either seems like a lifetime or somehow like 2 years used to be. I'm sure a lot of people are betting against huge changes in the auto industry, but there are fundamental shifts happening right now. The GM car that left Henrietta last weekend only went 300 miles on it's fuel cell, but there will be 100 out in a year or two and Honda's version will start to roll out next year.

Cars in the next 10 years will be nothing like the previous 100 years and Torvec will be a very important part of this next generation. Or not, the bets are down, soon we will flip the cards and see who has a better hand.
