"Michael Franklin looks like a cool dude" - yes, but being a hip 50+ year old washed up Wolfman Jack fan club president who can only make his 1970's musical schtick fit in is in China does not qualify him to be a leader of a solar company.
Regarding his relavent experience, let's take a closer look:
In 2008, he begins his solar career in between his Rockin' Robin musical extravaganza and producing 1970's icon Gloria Gayner's Christmas special by becoming Director of Asian Operations for Evolution Solar (EVSO). Shortly after this designation, he announces a block buster $36 million dollar deal which gets them an exclusive right to produce 1 million solar wafers per month!!: http://www.thestreet.com/story/10690535/1/evso-evolution-solar-announces-36-million-wafer-supply-agreement.html
Unfortunately, that deal never actually materializes, despite the announcement of a solid contract, which then brings scrutiny to the company by the SEC resulting in a suspension: http://sec.gov/litigation/suspensions/2011/34-64612.pdf
This year, 2012, while working on his much anticipated solo album, "Forgotten Secrets" to be featured at the Xiamen International Music Festival, he has also launched Optimum Solar which featured the much anticipated "Plug 'n Play" solar panel with a company called ONYX: http://www.solarsouthwestflorida.com/plug-and-play-solar-panels/
So in summary, Michael Franklin, the accomplished musician, with having just entered the solar industry in 2008, has a 100% track record of having each of the three companies he was involved with being suspended by the SEC (EVSO, GSLO, and ONYX). Maybe he should stick with his day job or is the 4th time a charm.....?
