This is usually where Crunch chimes-in but...
I'll have a crack at answering your postulation till he steps-in.
**If your glass is 1/2 full...
the possibility may[?] exist that one of these other company's making news
are buying their QD's wholesale (or in partnership) from (or with) QTMM.
The possibility that we may[?] already have solo retail sales exists as well.
In either case, these 'conjectured' sales may[?] be predicated upon securing
the TQD patent...either as a mandated condition of sales by the consumer
or as a preference by QTMM , to protect their IP prior to going transparent.
This hypothesis may[?] explain the delay in those PR's Dr.Bob was preparing.
Not possible ? You tell me !
It's funny how folks see things differently sometimes...
to me , this data from the USPTO was pretty encouraging...but wadda' I know #@%
**If your glass is 1/2 empty...
there's nothing I can do for you & I suggest you sell ASAP....
this is not a stock for the weak-of-heart.
In any case...GL2U in whatever you decide to invest in.
