wazup, i think the key word here is "yet". i'm a shareholder because i do think the company will achieve that high a standard in the next several months. basically, as they do these deals they will become as good as the sum of all subsidiaries in the near term, and then the quality of management will impact what kind of synergies they can achieve, etc, over the years that follow. jmho.

You may be right wazup, but my gut tells me otherwise. All in good time.
And not sure what you are riled about and don't know what my history says about me other than I think I go back to the first page. Is that a bad thing?
Don't worry, I usually don't talk this much...I'm crawling back under my rock now.

Wazup,

As I have mentioned before I also work in aerospace and my company supplies the military with parts on a regular basis. As you state there is a base set of criteria a supplier must meet, but if you know as much as you say you know supplying the military with anything is all dependent on what retired general or colonel you have on the payroll to make the proper introductions. At this point you have no information about the companies QASP is acquiring. How do you know one of them isn't already an approved supplier to the military? I would be very careful speaking in absolutes as it may come back to haunt you.

Disagree WAZ. Military might very well be in the future, imo.

I am not suggesting that QASP is seeking to become a military supplier (have no idea), but I disagree that QASP has no chance of coming close to the military. The military / gov't spends multiple $$MM in small businesses every year looking for innovative ideas through SBIR (Small Business Innovative Research) and STTR (Small Business Technology Transfer) programs. Fuel costs, 2 wars in logistically-challenged areas (I forget the % but I believe that largest % of our soldiers that have died in the war were directly related to logistics and specifically support of fuel convoys, etc). If QASP's products are as great as they say, then either the SBIR or STTR path may be a way to get their foot in the door. Also, wasn't Dean a past member/director of the North American Composite Consortium that did a lot of work with ONR (Office of Naval Research) in the past. Would be nice, and would make sense, but PURE SPECULATION.
