onewho, Can't we say many times over the years that stuff seems to be happening in <insert location>?

You mention a few distributors really pushing now. What happened to so many past distributors?

About management's product strategy, IMO it has lacked focus. At one point, they were spending time & money on repackaging existing products in order to try to capture a niche market and it has not worked has it? For that to be effective, they should have done all the testing & validation first. Not afterwards. Who cares if you have a product for an industry if they're going to scoff at you due to lack of enough credible validation, etc? If you're going to go in half-kilter, then just stick with the existing products first and focus on that until you achieve more credibility.

The shotgun, throw it at the wall, approach didn't prove to be very effective did it? IMO again, they should have properly tested, via credible well-known organizations, the existing products first. Focus on that, grow sales so that they get noticed and get some industrial attention. Then expand. Not the other way around. Or, if they're going to create "new" products (solar, greenhouse, etc) then first make inroads to that industry prior to spending a lot of time & money. Instead of watering down their time, their focus, and their success rate. I'd say the results speak for themselves on that note.

Fairbanks wasn't 'nothing'. It was the largest and most credible US customer to date. Right? That would have been huge, had it been legit. Imagine if the city of Fairbanks had data and would vouch for Nansulate saving them a lot of energy budget. Imagine that. Imagine that, instead of the city attorney saying that the PR was false. Big difference.

Do you know how many other cities would have jumped on board if Fairbanks director of engineering, et al, would have vouched for Nansulate and proved that it saved them major energy expenditures? A lot of other cities would have jumped on board. The US has a lot of buying power. It would have been a turning point and milestone of credibility for the company and product. Rather than an all time low in credibility.

Oh, China has a lot of buying power, too. What happened to the China partner who was supposed to be on board by early 2010? Did the company speak too soon again?

One... You are kidding right, of course Fairbanks was a huge deal it exposed openly the PR farce and their was no way to spin it otherwise? It is now seen as the credibility rule for the PRs and not the exception.

I doubt if it can avoid a death spiral with no consummation of projects and no audited profits; perhaps that is why they just hired a stock promoter to push it to its subscribers.

Management is not going to change due to ownership and that in itself is a true nail in the coffin. If they can sell the company to a bigger credible company then they would really move things in the right direction. Strange though, if the science is so good why the heck have there not been publicized $$ offers for a patented product? imo
