Webs,
Great post. Many of your thoughts and concerns are mine also. Maybe being an eccentric genius makes John appear suspect at times. We don't often come in contact with characters like him. I don't want to lose money and don't want you to lose all you've gained at this point. If JB comes through on his promises, Webs, many of us will be tellin' stories of the great vulcan investor for years to come.

Here's a good post about JBII...
I've definitely been prone to some silly outbursts in my euphoria along the way, as you well know, and now zen does to(had one with him this weekend with him). My quick comment on those outburst to both of you is that I think most times that people/organization set out to do great things, that too many people piss on them along the way. Maybe it is a good motivator, but I don't understand why people aren't able to give the benefit of the doubt more. I actually do understand, and I guess having a public company opens you up to that.
If John is executing a pump and dump, or thought he had something huge, and is backed in a corner, and now has to greatly stretch the truth to keep it going, I'm definitely going to be shocked. I feel like I could have spotted Maddoff, but maybe not. I have constantly analyzed my thoughts and assessment of John and JBI, and they always conclude that John is the real deal and very honest. That doesn't mean he hasn't done some silly things. As I said in the post on jbii board, we are all human.
Anyway, to the point of validation. We all know business takes longer than we think. We have all been apart of that. I really don't think that glove incident was faked. I spoke with John on the phone about it. I have now spoken to him a few times in 7 months. He comes across as incredibly honest. I'm communicating with a poster on the hub board in email, who has decades of experience in clinical psychology, and they agree 100%. John has his family, friends, and residents of his hometown all in this stock. He has secured some very tough contracts with the tape business. Getting oil and gas to give him their tapes can't be understated on how much trust would be needed to do that. I guess you could say, we don't know for sure if they are customers, but we do know they have MIT, NASA, etc.
Starting to ramble and say things I've said many times. I don't think IsleChem would be in on this. I don't think John would throw it over to them the instant he received the machine, which he basically did once that second container came in, if he was worried about the process. Building the "footprint", manual, safety precautions, and taking the machine apart and rebuilding several times would obviously take a lot of time. One thing I've learned about John, and any optimistic person(same in reverse for pessimistic) is that you have to double or more the timelines of what they project. John works his ass off, putting in 15 hours a day. I'm glad it isn't flying to the next investor confidence type of work your ass off. I do worry though that it is, doing 15 million different things though. I would theorize that John gets easily bored, and thinks VERY big. So, he put a ton on his plate. More than he can handle. He's learning how to be a CEO and manage many dozen people on the fly. John's optimism allows him to get incredible amounts of things done, but he still falls well short of the expectations built, fair and unfair, by the shareholder base. I want my CEO to be that way, rather than the reverse though. If you have the reverse mentality, be my accountant. Another thing is they left their goals/business plan on that old website for months. They said they would be operational in Sept. I think, and it was mid Nov. and they hadn't done half of what was on their goals list. I think a scam covers that up right away, instead of showing how far off they are for two months. It was my joking about it that I think got them to finally take it down.
I can't properly explain my entire thoughts on this in writing. There has been tease and delay, but I think it comes from honesty. Honesty that he wishes he could have accomplished, but got too aggressive on his optimism. Projecting his own work ethic onto others, that is unrealistic, and misjudging all the little pieces along the way. I remodeled a large portion of my home two years ago. I would say, ok, I'll be done with the bathroom in 6-8 weeks. 12 weeks later, I'm still finishing up the final touches, because I misjudged having redo ALL the plumbing, and ordering this part, and the list goes on.
We have a final date now, April 24. Show us the machine then, or the stock is done for. Good to have a date nailed down. Personally, as my friend has said, we have check mated the situation. We got in at 1-1.20, so the chances of losing money are extremely thin now. Doesn't mean we won't kill ourselves for the rest of our lives for leaving so much money on the table, but I think it is worth the reward, and my personal assessment of the risk says this is the real deal.
We shall see. Going to be very volatile these next few weeks.

Belaruski NICE
Bela to be honest , I have never tasted Capt Morgan's Rum ...I once got sick on southern confort .....and that was it for me with the sweet drinks.Originally posted by Belaruski View Postyou're my kind of guy pete. awhile back we were invited to an affair by a friend that won a contest and she was able to invite 25 of her friends to a bar in Belmar, NJ for 3 hours of open bar and a big free buffet. as a sideline Capt. Morgan rum had a promo going on that afternoon where they had a guy dressed up in pirates garb and three or four young scantily clad women just busting out and dressed as "wenches" going around offering free shots of capt. morgan's rum. if you could drink 3 smaller version shots down one right after another you would get a free tee shirt with capt morgans picture on it. my wife got pissed off at me but over the course of the three hrs. i was able to win two tee shirts and if i remember correctly my brain was smoothed that afternoon.

i don't have any problem with the PR's as long as the represent the truth. but numerous PR's like the other day seem to be indicative of pump and dump even if they are the truth. but if i were in the same boat i would be doing whatever it took to generate interest in my company and to raise capital. if he is a scam he will get caught in the end. they always do. it's easy to bad mouth and be sarcastic but much harder to put the money on the line and make the play. i would be a hyprocrite to say anything bad about the stock being that i'm now up over $27000 with my two trades.Originally posted by Websman View PostOk...I'll give you that one Lye....Too many PR's.
