Absolutely true. Time to stick to the man!

So DW being the cagey veteran he is, appears to have repeatedly said, "I'm not giving up control or catering to any bureacratic mumbo-jumbo. We'll find another way."

Good for him.

A quick google has a ready made answer for you:

The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program was established by Congress in 1982 to provide increased opportunities for small businesses to participate in R&D, to increase employment, and to improve U.S. competitiveness. The program's specific objectives are to stimulate U.S. technological innovation, use small businesses to meet federal research and development needs, increase private-sector commercialization of innovations derived from federal R&D, and foster and encourage participation by socially disadvantaged businesses. Legislation enacted in 2000 extended and strengthened the SBIR program and increased its emphasis on pursuing commercial applications of SBIR project results.

Very clever. I've got to get someone to explain to me about this a Google.

What does: "EEStor had submitted 6 proposals to the SBIR program in 2002" mean exactly?

Were they looking for funding from NASA?

Thx

Whoever it was who mangled the english language into this constipated phraseology deserves to have dogs set on him, beaten with sticks and driven out of town!

To my ears it sounds devine. Applause, applause!

So it appears that LM is ramping up their grid-leveling business even though Zenn is to get the first production line and the first EESUs. Production lines might be in production all over the place. Wonder how many production EESUs are out there already.

Somebody document the part at the start that was only audio - when they were talking about EEStor - and stick it in this thread.

Sure, most of us never expected to still be waiting in March considering how much buzz there was as we approached December.

But, I am slightly encouraged that nobody has leaked news that EEStor isn't going to reveal this year, or can't meet their production goals.

This is somewhat along the same lines as no news is good news but with a twist.

Since the EESU is going to be the biggest thing since the wheel, and coming out before they can make thousands if not millions reliably serves no business purpose, I'm guessing the delay is all about getting every possible duck in a row that they can and nothing else.

DW will ship/reveal when the time is right not to serve our wishes.

Tec, Oakthicket, MSR, CRJohn, Y_Po are banned from posting in this thread. No other kooks either.

All other weirdos are welcome to post how we can be in March already with no NNN, negative or positive.

Stumbled on this today, while reading the news online. Thought it was interesting.

Article: Pack Ice Scarce off Eastern Canada.

http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2010/03/01/n...

Not that any observational data will change anybody's world-view driven climate change denial.

More GARBAGE statistics...

Lies... Damn lies...

Oh I'm sorry, that's a peer reviewed statistic...

So it's utter crap...

(actually the population used was 100 hand picked "research climatologists", whose requirement for being included in the population was to agree with this study... Two refused to do so)

From NPR:
"Ninety-eight percent of the research climatologists in the world say that global warming is real, that its impacts are going to be catastrophic," he argued. "There are 2 percent who disagree with that. I have a choice of believing the 98 percent or the 2 percent."

It appears you completely missed the point of the NPR article.
