The frequency of the sonocracker's sonic cavitation is beyond the hearing range of the human ear. It won't destroy an ear drum.

SUF and Rudy Gunnerman have a checkered past. Investors would be wise to look at this company with a critical eye. I for one do not believe all the message board hype. I want proof from an independent third party that the sonocracker process works as claimed. I'm not willing to rely on the company's claims that it does. I don't think anyone else should either.

Blazed:
Look, first of all, I am not paid, except by income derived from pharmaceutical research, own absolutely no SUF stock, and personally avoid short selling (max return is limited, exposure is high, and I respect the time and intelligence of those who practice that art, as long as they maintain their ethics by not ever speaking negatively of a stock they have shorted).

That said. Scalability is a significant issue. One could run a house off of 12 volt batteries but space and cost considerations make that approach infeasible.

Your e-mail significant, as my questions remain:
If the 2K machine works to the South Korean's satisfaction, then where are the results and the milestone payment?
Where is even a picture, let alone results from the 5K machine, let alone the 15K, said to be completed? As Sulphco downgraded the size of their facilities, where exactly are these machines housed? Think the recent press comments answer this question: looping oil through a smaller machine is said to achive the higher levels?

As to the Total deal announced in October (Business Week) seems the deal is now a "test" involving Total shipping oil to Nevada? That is not even a two party test, let alone a third party replication or peer review of results.

As to the Arabian deal, for under $140K the partner obtained 50% of "the profits of any sales agreements". As Sulphco is supplying the equipment, seems they may have quite a deal, on top of any fees that SulphCo might have paid the Government of Fujairah for the pleasure of doing business in that country.

The internet is a wonderful tool, you can even see an aerial of the German firm producing the 30K units, learn that the Japanese firm also contributing specializes in structural steel (not the stainless normally associated with this type of equipment), learn that SulphCo's current president as stated on the SulphCo website "spent the majority of his career with Clean Fuels Technology, Inc." and that that firm is currently suing him. And also see that a firm devoted to Research and Development for FY04 spent 3.35 million(86.8% of operating expenses) on Selling/General/Administrative Expenses and only 0.41M(10.6% of OE) on Research &
Development.
Gunnerman et al have a track record of earning substantial personal income from firms that ultimately fail.
