The only problem with all these disruptive technologies coming out, is that if they proliferate too quickly, the oil pharma complex will just etch a sketch everything overnight.
Translation: Etch a sketch - To Etch a Sketch something would be to make a drawing by moving horizontal and vertical lines on the Etch a Sketch screen. In this context, however, the meaning is that the drawing will be erased by moving the Etch a Sketch panel violently back and forth while holding the screen upside down. The effect is to erase the drawing. Barrymore means that the big Fortune 500 companies will come along and hold us upside down and shake us if QMC has success too quickly.
Probably with an EMP blast. These guys refuse to lose.
Translation: (from Wikipedia)The term electromagnetic pulse (sometimes abbreviated EMP) is a burst of electromagnetic radiation that results from an explosion (especially a nuclear explosion) and/or a suddenly fluctuating magnetic field. The resulting electric and magnetic fields may couple with electrical/electronic systems to produce damaging current and voltage surges.
In military terminology, a nuclear bomb detonated hundreds of kilometers above the Earth's surface is known as a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) device. Nuclear electromagnetic pulse has three distinct time components that result from different physical phenomena. Effects of a HEMP device depend on a very large number of factors, including the altitude of the detonation, energy yield, gamma ray output, interactions with the Earth's magnetic field, and shielding of targets.
The Fortune 500 companies bent on destroying QMC will use nuclear weapons.
Get this stock up to a buck and make some elite friends. FAST.
Translation: Elite Friends. This was a puzzler. Does he mean we're not good enough to be his friends? Does he mean we should embrace what Eisenhower warned in his speech about the Military/Industrial Complex? I thought long and hard about this (that's 5 minutes, for me!) and Googled the term, and was lucky to find the exact meaning of Elite Friends, and I embrace it!
Bottom Line Analysis: Barrymore got his shares! Hooray!
In the words of my friend, The Exterminator (channeling the great Don Rickles), Barrymore, I kid you because I love you!
But, Seriously, folks, Squires has protected the stock by not diluting it so that another company could swoop in and buy a majority. In fact, it could be argued that there is high stability in ownership of the shares, protecting the company from takeover. Most shareholders expect the shares to rise like an EMP.
Secondly, QMC has guarded its technology from scrutiny as it has developed it thereby preventing other companies to get an edge or counter their activities. This board has discovered relatively little, in reality.
Third, and this is my opinion only, but Squires acted too fast in 2009, with publicity about a factory and expectations about how fast things would be happening. He has had more than a year to think about that, I based on what I have seen of his leadership skills, he has had time to plan a campaign for this fall that will both lead the stock higher and also lead the company down the path he wants to go. We see hints of it with the release of the Jabbour/Doderer article, Rice Alliance update next week and Jabbours planned speeches and panel participation already mapped out to December.
