There is one question that has been puzzling me regarding this technology. From what I understand, the conductivity in the plastic is achieved by metal, so I can appreciate that Integral has found a better way to mix or achieve better dispersion which makes their solution more conductive than other plastic of that type. However how can it be as conductive as metal but lighter? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the conductive material is metal then would it not seem obvious that to achieve similar level of conductivity you would require the same mass of metal?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, from what I have read on conductive plastic the biggest difficulties is dispersion of the conductive matter during the molding process, has anybody seen any ElectriPlast parts? Do they have difficulties in achieving consistency in the end product, which would explain their silence?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Really this story does seem too good to be true, is it a scam?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for your thoughts&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for the question. Your timing is pretty good, I just wrote a...well, a rather long missive to a group of friends regarding the silence presently in place, and my view on the issues difficulties, or consolations taking place at this point behind the scenes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before going further on that point though, let me note that while ElectriPlast has conductive properties equal to, or better than it’s metal comparison – this is a fact that has been stated repeated, the pending 3rd party tests will bear this reality out in time… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for how it can be better, well from various interviews given, it is known that this is a unique mix of materials, which when compiled in a specialized fashion, uses micron sized filaments that are in some manner situated in a specialized lattice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This gives the ElectriPlast material both its tensile strength and lightweight, in addition to its conductive, or as required, its resistive potential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granted, this is the simplistic perspective, but I think it answers the gist of your question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the story being a scam – consider this, who’s reputation will be damaged more if it is?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral, the creator of the IP, and patent holder… Or JARCO, almost an 80 million dollar a year, employee owned company who has invested time, equipment, security and man-power all aimed to the successful kick-off of this innovative potential. More to the point, JARCO wants to multiply their profits five fold in the next few years, and is fast becoming the Center of the ElectriPlast universe. They have already sunk a healthy amount of time, energy, and clout behind this new direction, and have uncovered solid benefits not yet disclosed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My spider-sense is telling me that with this kind of solid support by a deep-pocketed, trusted agent, the ITKG investors have far less to be concerned with than they did 14 months ago when the stock was treading water at .30 cents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the silence, there is an old saying regarding the quiet before the storm… A synergy of events are coming to a head, one might consider this a preamble to the Big Bang that creates that ElectriPlast universe mentioned earlier…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope that was of help…&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;PK sends… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-5527700845563905713?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/5527700845563905713/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=5527700845563905713' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/5527700845563905713'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/5527700845563905713'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/05/reader-interaction-25-apr-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 25 Apr 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-4993200809485673274</id><published>2007-05-30T12:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-30T12:05:18.471-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 29-30 Mar 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;First Steps toward a Productive Future...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;29-30 March 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some info that may be helpful for ITKG&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,261749,00.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congratulations -- you have touched on one of the reasons for excitement centered on the pending patented impacts associated to this IP.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Better said, think on it this way--while it is true that Integral and their ElectriPlast IP are looking in many directions to exploit numerous markets.

It's been a month since the Knowles announcement and nothing has since been posted in the way of news. Heard anything?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, have you heard anything? I've been waiting very patiently for any small tidbit of news but all has been quite silent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader from AZ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think most would agree that the wait and not knowing are the hardest parts. I've been a shareholder for quite awhile and their lack of communication with (and seeming lack of concern for) the shareholders’ is probably my biggest complaint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it time for shareholders to unite?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Readers,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before starting, I just wanted to offer an apology for the delay in getting back to those writing here--also for not being present to update the Blog with the latest rumored and real activities taking place behind the scenes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was doing some service time to the Government and was pre-occupied with other stuff. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am back. Unfortunately I have to admit, as some have noted, it has indeed been silent since the Knowles announcement, but that is not to say the momentum behind ElectriPlast has ground to a halt -- far from it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last month, I noted that events were to come to a head in a few weeks -- the events are still in play, the cause for the delay is as simple as this. Integral Technologies in pushing their IP to market has to work through and rely on others to meet established benchmarks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sounds like an excuse, partially it is, but in reality, that is what has been taking place all along, and why it has taken so long to get to where we are today. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is the pending expectation of a massive grouping of patents to be released soon. One of these patents is said to be the comprehensive bailiwick which will serve as the basic cover patent for all current and future ElectriPlast, and ElectriPlast-like conductive materials potentially made by other front-runners working to create: conductive plastics; inherently conductive polymers (ICPs); inherently dissipative polymer (IDPs); and other competing polymers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What else is going on – well, word is Integral Technologies, some of its licensees, and most importantly, the ElectriPlast IP will one day be featured as a reported segment on a nationally syndicated TV program. The details behind this event are shady. When will it air? What specifically was the content focused on? What aspects were covered and did they involve: the management; the marketing plan; the companies involved; the product(s); the inventor; the supply-chain; the investment? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are all questions yet to be released. What is known is that the filming took place shortly after Valentines Day – but as I mentioned a moment ago, the details back then, as today, were/are too sketchy to make any noteworthy comments on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is that all – Far from it… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is much more. Events continue to progress in Jasper, with plans for JARCO’s expansion in the air. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other contracts and licensing agreements are close to being announced; and if I am not mistaken a third party testing of the ElectriPlast material is either in progress or has been completed…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are a number of issues more to follow up on, but this is only my first day back in front of my computer keyboard, and my notes, and the various emails/tip-off leads from fellow shareholders, EB Readers, and other interested parties are scattered, or not yet opened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That said, give me some time to decompress and I will share what I can then…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from Bavaria's St Patrick Party Center,&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;PK sends… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-5786158951956425963?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/5786158951956425963/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=5786158951956425963' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/5786158951956425963'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/5786158951956425963'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/05/reader-interaction-12-13-17-mar-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 12-13, 17 Mar 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-7332435152620615977</id><published>2007-05-30T12:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-05-30T12:01:47.655-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 13-14 Feb 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Flash of Light Slips Through...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13-14 February 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I suppose we now know who Jasper was making the production run for.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As an experienced trader, I have to say that ITKG is really a compelling case.

I'm adding another vote to reflect the same sentiments, exactly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyone out there who can help us out?&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Another anonymous small investor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Come on! You guys/gals act as if you've never invested in Micro Caps before. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If so, then you must have learned that volatility goes with the territory, right? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If not, then consider this downturn as your "schooling." It's really quite simple: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) You believe that the stock price will eventually catch up with the technology and you ride it out, or &lt;br /&gt;2) You don't. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you don't, then why keep punishing yourself?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yet another anonymous Small Investor&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Readers,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello to all reading, and those writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I gather this surprise down-turn has hit hard and left some wondering on the validity of the ElectriPlast, and more importantly, its marketability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not one of those DEAL with it speeches – nothing near. Your concerns are valid and the questions are reasonable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand, first and foremost, OTCBB, or better said Penny Stocks are extremely susceptible to investor sentiment, rumor, hype and lies. Unfortunately, we are still at the beginning phase of this investment. The stock is under the radar, and we as stakeholders are holding onto something that—though it is not yet there—has the potential to impact numerous markets at the same time. Because of this, we are in the same position as what some once called angel investors. Like those who invested in Microsoft before the technology was realized; or those who supported eBay long before its stock came available on the open market, long before its potential could be realized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are not that early on the train at this point, but for the rest of the world, there is still a fog surrounding the implied impact that the ElectriPlast IP will have on various markets being targeted. The EB was begun with the notion of clearing the fog for some, and offering answers to those who began to see the potential. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A friend recently reminded me of a saying, and I know I’ll get it wrong: “under promise and over perform.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not realizing it, I’ve tried to follow that guideline in email responses and correspondences. In the Blog stories themselves, no, I could not take that approach because I needed to speculate on some of the potentials based on the patent summaries as they were approved, and from insights gleaned from the Integral itself. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Despite that, I attempted to remain true in my descriptions – despite the fact that, until ElectriPlast becomes marketed and is available on the streets, the “real” potential will remain a close-held secret, available only to the license holders and to the over 300 companies holding Non Disclosure Agreements with Integral Technologies, and its license holders: JARCO; Heatron; ADAC; and Esprit. As noted above, I worked to under promise on my descriptions of what was gleaned from both the patents and accounts from sources that were exposed to the tech-specs of ElectriPlast and are aware of the potentials. Still, it is hard to do, if what was relayed is fact, then there is no way this venture could fail, and the fact that multi-million dollar companies are signing licensing agreements and (potentially future contracts) with Integral might be interpreted as supporting this premise. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All right, the questions are focused on the why behind the dip. Heck, it could be any number of things behind that – from the raised expectations over the CES (some wanted a booth), me, I saw it as yet another source of validation for product potential - - I believe I said as much in my Blog articles, and similar tones were echoed in Vince’s articles. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The product was validated, those companies looking for a new angle on developing their pending product lines were exposed to the potential ElectriPlast brings to bear. Contacts were made and developed during that event – problem was, they were not broadcasted, announced, or publicized beyond the event itself. Welcome to the world of business, where first to market sometimes means working with someone who wishes to keep their secret weapon secret for as long as necessary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another reason for the drop could be due to the newspaper article reported on the iHub a few weeks ago, wherein Bill Robinson gave an interview and noted that revenue from ElectriPlast sales may probably be seen in the 3rd or 4th quarter. This is longer than some would have thought – what with this being the “year” and all. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don’t know what to say about that--it is about perspectives more than not. If revenues are seen in the 2nd quarter, will we march on Bellingham and proclaim the CEO a liar. I think not, and though I cannot say he is spot on, I can say JARCO has been producing ElectriPlast in volume over the past 3 months for (someone). I can say that they are looking to increase their production load multi-fold. I can say that Tom Aisenbrey has been spent more than a few weeks in Jasper assisting with the operation &amp; production’s fine-tuning efforts. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To what end?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me be clear. This company is moving in a forward direction. The Licensees listed now are not the last to be seen. Many, many other companies are taking a hard look at the ElectriPlast option, and have their legal teams reviewing and tweaking their proposed agreements as I write. Some of the NDA companies intend to enter into contractual agreements with Integral directly, while others will become clients to JARCO’s supply-chain manufacturing infrastructure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The story associated to this investment remains constant – yes, the stock price dropped. Trust when NASDAQ, or AMEX comes into play, such fluctuations will not be present, and manipulators will find it harder to tease the price per share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until that time, you will simply have to deal with those on a message board taunting and attempting to confuse the larger picture with their holier than thou, negative ‘tude. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I doubt this was of much help to some – the product and its potential is real, the issues and speculations highlighted in this Blog are valid. There is no instant path to success, and if there was, then I would raise the flag of doubt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No, a foundation is required, and it needs to be built upon. Integral is doing just that. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am tempted to say calm your passions, but I sense the reasons why some may be anxious. What I recommend is waiting for the activity set to occur at or around the end of this month, beginning of next before testing the “cut and run” winds on this extremely speculative, but potentially highly rewarding investment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That’s it from me… Cheers and best from the Heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;PK sends… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-320154173020723278?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/320154173020723278/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=320154173020723278' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/320154173020723278'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/320154173020723278'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/05/reader-interaction-6-8-feb-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 6-8 Feb 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-5254461654486171953</id><published>2007-02-18T10:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T11:16:39.114-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 22-25 Jan 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question on the IP Price Per Pound...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22-25 January 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi PK:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Firstly, best wishes to you for good health and much happiness in 2007.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some &lt;b&gt;major&lt;/b&gt; questions popped up in my mind while reading your latest Blog entry:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What would you imagine the price per pound of ElectriPlast is selling for??&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;And further, hypothetically of course, what would the profit on a per pound basis be??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know, I know, we don't know the cost of the raw materials or both JARCO's manufacturing and marketing costs in addition to what the ElectriPlast is priced at. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is the business model to sell the raw ElectriPlast and collect a royalty on say a per&lt;br /&gt;item manufactured basis? or to just sell the ElectriPlast on a per pound basis with no royalty?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there is a royalty, would it be a royalty based on an items' list price? wholesale price? and if it's 75,000 door handle assemblies for a car in Europe, what happens? Is there a blanket license fee for the 75,000 door handles in addition to the cost of the raw ElectriPlast?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After reading your Blog some concern came to mind in regards to the supply side. JARCO can supply 100,000 lbs per month. Now even if JARCO could double or triple the output to 200-300,000 lbs per month, that's not going to be anywhere near enough if things get going. Your figure of 1.5 million lbs. per month of what is anticipated for the short and mid term is a nice figure however where's that going to come from? I'm speculating that JARCP tripling their output would be a major accomplishment but 10 times or 15 times their output???? Probably not going to happen without building a bigger factory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esprit and other future European manufacturers would probably like to have and would eventually need to have a source closer to their facilities. Asia too. Convenience and the cost and time to ship containers across the Atlantic/Pacific would be alleviated. Finding and &lt;b&gt;Trusting&lt;/b&gt; 1, 2, or 3 other manufacturing facilities on different continents will be a major, major deal. How do you trust other manufacturers with the IP/Formulation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's your speculation for additional supply?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure you're way ahead of me on this and probably already have some viable solutions in mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Care to share?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay warm in Bavaria.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best Regards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good hearing from you again, and great question – Price Per Pound.  I think maybe I as the EB Publisher, or the Editor-in-Chief should do an article in that direction, but then again – maybe not.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reason being, the information we have access to on that account – though not speculative – varies dependent on who the licensee is; their interest; and the negotiated price settled upon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is how the game plan will work – in every industry imaginable, Integral will have one prime, or secondary industry product server/supplier licensed to first introduce a novel new ElectriPlast product to the market, and then—as the popularity and uniqueness of ElectriPlast is better understood and favored above other available product options—to become partnered as THE primary supplier of a strongly desired product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As noted the price per pound will depend on a variety of things—to include the value of the material ElectriPlast is meant to mimic, or replace (from copper type material, to semi and "super"-conducting capable materials).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In some instances, it has been reported that the selling price of ElectriPlast pellets could range from  $10 - $50 per pound.  Granted these more than likely represent low-end prices – you know, first-time buyers and users get the initial discount, then the price rises as the market grows and the usefulness becomes better realized and understood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since Jasper Rubber carries the burden of work, they are paid, and Integral earns a percentage of that sum.  The percentage amount varies from license and contracts negotiated also.  I might say somewhere in the neighborhood of 10-40% but that would be speculation and rumor based.  Suffice it to note, whatever agreement/arrangement has taken place between JARCO and Integral, both have walked away from the bargaining table happy – JARCO more so because with the production of ElectriPlast product, their client list, and end-of-the-day bottom line earnings will rise, and rise.  We are talking a $70 million a year company looking to grow exponentially.  We are looking at Integral looking to tap onto that growth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’ll let you do the math.  No matter how it shakes, within the first year of sales, Integral would have almost covered all past debts and expenses and would be well along the path to solid positive earnings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is another angle associated – not only does JARCO supply raw material, they also produce finished product.  Those sales exceed that of raw material, and once again, Integral earns a percentage of that take.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would look to the 3rd or 4th quarter to seeing an impact from the sales – right now; the real focus is in garnering the licensees, and in increasing production capabilities.  On this end, from my understanding, JARCO is fully behind Integral, and are looking to increase their capacity – in some fashion that I am not yet prepared to detail until it occurs and become readily apparent to all (but I think you may of hit on the avenue that I am thinking of in your questioning guess – who knows, JARCO may have even already begun moving in that direction).  Regardless, trust that they are supporting this project, and have the end fully in sight and mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for sourcing of materials and supply-chain, I don’t think that an overwhelming problem with global trade being what it is.  And no, JARCO is the company Integral relies upon to act as the sole supplier of product.  They will do so in two fashions – first, by supplying palletized ElectriPlast, allowing a manufacturer the ability to mold the product themselves to meet their specific needs or requirements – second, by having JARCO supply finished product that meets a manufacturers specific needs or requirement. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No sharing of IP will take place beyond that.  As for duplication, it may be possible in the future, but that is why patents were developed first – also, the creation of the ElectriPlast material is not as simple as reverse engineering.  Think on this, after years of exposure to samples of ElectriPlast, neither GE or DuPont have yet been able to exploit the material they had access to (at least not to the extent that it offered the same reported quality and capability that Integral has mastered.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this helped in answering some of your question – granted some of the comments above are speculation/rumor based, but I don’t think I am leading you down a fairy-tale path here.  The potential is real and the product works as advertised.  Validation of that fact is re-affirmed with each additional license garnered.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best – from a snow-blanketed Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;PK sends… &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-5254461654486171953?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/5254461654486171953/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=5254461654486171953' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/5254461654486171953'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/5254461654486171953'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-22-25-jan-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 22-25 Jan 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-7368021948400509787</id><published>2007-02-18T10:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T10:46:46.506-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 22-23 Jan 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Nailing Down the Mood at JARCO...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22-23 January 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Could anyone there tell how optimistic the Jasper rubber officers were? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How much have they invested in manufacturing capacity? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would seems logical that if they are very committed to Electriplast, that would bode well for prospective sales.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, I wonder if there will be any revenues recorded this quarter from the previous licensing agreements. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ITKG's 10Q is coming up in the middle of February. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish we could get a statement from the CEO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for asking the questions. You don't make it easy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About JARCO - To date, it has been reported through rumor, by the ElectriPlast inventor, Tom Aisenbrey, and by both Integral and JARCO that the company (JARCO) is extremely optimistic about this new and unique connection and their future as they see it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality, JARCO is fully behind the ElectriPlast project, and have placed their full -- wait, let's re-stress that &lt;b&gt;FULL&lt;/b&gt; resources behind this endeavor. There is a real potential that this employee managed company will multiply its yearly bottom-line exponentially. You can consider JARCO fully committed. Chances are because of the "exponential" stakes involved we won't hear much on this aspect until all surrounding issues and details are solidified -- but keep an eye out for that space all the same. A lot of activity is taking place at ground zero, better known as "Jasper".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for revenues, you may see a trickling as reported to the SEC, but don't expect anything of significance until the 3rd and 4th quarter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right now, Integral is focused on getting an inside track on each and every conceivable market impacted by its patented products -- and setting up those markets for the time when their pending patents become fully recognized. At present Integral has about 20 patents in place, with another 20 patents due to come into their own in the next few months--and almost 80 more to follow shortly thereafter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tom Aisenbrey has in mind to have approximately 300 patents submitted and registered in support of the ElectriPlast IP. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that is not what you asked; you wanted to know about the revenues. Go with the quarters I mentioned above, but realize that that can be boosted at anytime based on the needs of the orders placed to the niche ElectriPlast licensed companies by the end-users.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the statement from Bill Robinson, the Integral CEO, well, I wish that too, but it would be difficult to guess at what he could really tell at this point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me clear up that last -- right now his has a variety of companies test bedding the ElectriPlast material for their use, and to dog-and-pony to their customers. These companies each have the prospect of signing a licensing agreement with Integral, and as a result becoming a conduit to their niche area of the marketplace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each are vying for an advantage, a best deal to strike with Bill Robinson so that they can become one of the first--in their niche area--to market the ElectriPlast potential to their clients, and possibly steal customers from their competitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bill Robinson can give the larger picture, but he may be satisfied in letting actions speak for him. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granted, I --for one-- think it better to let the shareholders in on the larger picture, but I am not standing in his shoes, and it is difficult being a Blog-Seat-Driver.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suffice it to note, he will say something when ready, and there is enough backdoor interaction and communication taking place at this time where it might not be necessary to hold the shareholders hands. While I don't agree with that line of thought--transparency in my view, and in today's world is a healthy thing--in the business world, it might be extremely costly, showing your cards too willingly to the ever-present competition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope that was of some help,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-7368021948400509787?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/7368021948400509787/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=7368021948400509787' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/7368021948400509787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/7368021948400509787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-22-23-jan-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 22-23 Jan 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-8922702243969872520</id><published>2007-02-18T10:44:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T10:45:21.052-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 10 Jan 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hedging Bets?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10 January 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope Christmas treated you and yours well and that the New Year rolls on strong. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I've turned to you for commentary on this from Tobin Smith: "If and when ITKG proves its technology can transition from development to commercialization, be ready to see some real action in the shares."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;He made this statement in his newsletter 'Bottom Line' opinion after stating the latest news regarding licenses and Espirit Solutions.  He explained Espirit has a formidable customer base and specializes in high-performance protective systems within the aerospace and defense market. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I wanted to hear from you on Tobin's hedging position of "If" (and when) ITKG proves... I'm just looking here for your commentary using this as the discussion point. While the stock has short-term volatility, the 200-day trend-line shows a nice, smooth upward running line. With this and many other positive factors supporting ElectriPlast, I tend to get too relaxed given that I have 70k shares invested. Even though I understand we're still looking at 2-5 years for the licensing to sale of the company plan to play out. This is also plenty of time for something, anything to disrupt the plan and the value of the stock. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Thanks for your time and effort. Best to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In regards to Tobin Smith and his stake in Integral Technologies, other than as an investment, there are no strong strings attaching that connection.  Integral is a company, and Tobin is a free agent, able and willing to tell those who follow his lead whatever he chooses.  Integral has no voice on that process.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the Licensing to Sale note – I think, with the JARCO connection fully established, that time lag would be cut down to weeks.  JARCO is a full service entity, with supply chain and quality control’s firmly in place.  They are ISO certified, and are already established in the industry.  I doubt that they will sacrifice that established reputation, and more importantly, their ISO certification, simply to get sucked into marketing scam.  In short, Tobin and his ChangeWave crew may take advantage of the markets, and may hedge their commentary – but that is the limit of their stake in this investment.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the opposite side of the scale, you have JARCO who is &lt;b&gt;heavily&lt;/b&gt; vested into the development, production and marketing of ElectriPlast. In lining up with Integral Technologies, they place their ISO certification and reputation on the line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think if I were to choose sides, and more, if I were to wonder at who had certain inside knowledge on the eventual game plan and end results – through it all, I would side with JARCO.  Their investment is greater, and not to be taken lightly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not to slam Tobin and his efforts, but it – in my opinion – is far easier to sell a stock and walk away, moving on to the next horizon.  He is not doing that though, nor do I think he has any intention to consider it – not now, and not with over 100 companies with NDAs’ waiting for patents to solidify so that they too can take advantage of the ElectriPlast option…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-8922702243969872520?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/8922702243969872520/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=8922702243969872520' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/8922702243969872520'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/8922702243969872520'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-10-jan-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 10 Jan 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-1007467993773273842</id><published>2007-02-18T09:55:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T10:44:00.716-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 9-13 Jan 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Difficult Nut to Crack…&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9-13 January 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you tell me what the annual sales revenue of ESL is? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I haved tried to research this and cannot find this information. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, are the the manufacturer of the protective shielding or do they represent or act as a consultant for the companies that make this part?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it possible a company such as "Research in motion" of 'Blackberry' fame could be very much interested in 'Plastenna' to increase their competitiveness?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would anticipate so due to the recent announcement of the iPhone launch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Might all the present cell phone makers be under the gun to better their product? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for your comments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader’s,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Two great questions ~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sorry for the delay in answering the first, I got caught up in real life for a bit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The revenue's of ESL is a difficult nut to crack. There is limited information available, but not the specifics you are requesting. Being a UK Ltd, the disclosure of their financing is, by far, different than what you would expect for a US company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suffice it to note, the information available will be shared shortly, but rather than run with half a fact, I'll hold off for a bit until I can see if more insight on that front can be collected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the second question regarding RIM and other "like" companies interest in the PlasTenna, or any ElectriPlast aspect towards their product lines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here it is. In response to an email from a EB Reader many months ago, now posted on the ElectriPlast Q&amp;A Blog, I informed that questioner that the chances were unlikely that there was a connection between ElectriPlast and the newly introduced iPhone. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They would have been a great fit, but for whatever the reasons, these two companies never made formal introductions, and the iPhone was well on its way into development before ElectriPlast began its active marketing campaign--and became a stable enough entity, with a solid standing supply-chain supporting it, to host notions of doing business on this large a scale. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With MOT, there was a different story regarding such a fit. Though MOT contracts out many aspects of its product manufacturing and production, they also own large interests in both aspects and are established enough to be able to take raw materials offered (like ElectriPlast from sources like Integral Technologies) and supply and produce their own product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the iPhone, the story is different. Apple is not specifically in the manufacturing business, nor did they buy a manufacturer in order to begin making their innovative iPhones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to your question -- or rather to the answer: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The iPhone has raised the bar on consumer’s expectations for what their personal communication product should be able to do, what it should look like, and how it should perform.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a small package, the iPhone literally replaces the need for: PDAs; digital cameras; MP3 players; the Gameboy; the old school Filofax/calendar; GPS Tracker; WiFi/WiMAX Internet browser; and of course phone -- heck, with the Bluetooth enhancements you can even add walkie-talkie to that mix.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Replacing all of these personal communication/information platforms, and a TV remote control added for kicks, the iPhone has indeed raised the standard by more than a couple of notches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many companies with products on the market will see their sales sag and fade to dust unless they look for a technology edge with which to compete. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can ElectriPlast be part of that edge -- Oh Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What many don't realize is that plastic technology is on the verge of an explosion. Computer chips, made out of plastic vice silicon, are being developed. Instead of the clunky (yes, one day your LCD computer monitor will be referred to as clunky--much like the monitor it probably replaced) computer monitor before you now, one day you could see a frame with a thin sheet of plastic, loaded with high defination characteristics. replacing it. Heck, Tom Aisenbrey has even test bedded ElectriPlast based semiconductors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, yes the iPhone is a marvel, and were it that ElectriPlast involved with its initial development, as investors, your and my fortunes in this small company would be set. But that does not say it never will happen in the future, nor does it say that this is the end of the story. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ElectriPlast brings innovative technology to the table, and because of the emergence of the iPhone, that is what various companies, such as RIM, will soon look for in an effort to compete.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, after the long (almost EB Blogworthy) spiel, the short answer to your question is, Oh Yeah! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All in the communications industry are now under the gun to come forth with better products. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the introduction of Apple's iPhone, the MOT recently introduced Razer series has become about as passé as the dated radio telephone featured on the old "Mannix" detective show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope that was of help,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-1007467993773273842?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/1007467993773273842/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=1007467993773273842' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/1007467993773273842'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/1007467993773273842'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-9-13-jan-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 9-13 Jan 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-1472100688700621370</id><published>2007-02-18T09:48:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T09:55:10.733-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 8 Jan 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dedicated to the Toys of Yester-Year...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8 January 2007&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought you might be interested to know that one of the world's largest and most advanced magnetic tape manufacturer's is about to close its doors in a few days after going bankrupt, bought for nothing, and still unable to recover. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The equipment will be sold for nothing and the land sold. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They can bond and print almost anything to any type of thin film.

What you describe was once a proud, prospering cornerstone of Americana suffering the clash of the times.  It was an Analog company working in a Digital world. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you have MP3 players no bigger than a writing pen, or photo/video cameras that are becoming smaller than a pack of cigarettes, and can fit in the palm of your hand while storing up to 8GB of memory... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, the toys of yesteryear are either going to have to adapt, merge, or fade. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dad once owned a Reel-to-Reel. He lovingly loaded it with the music he wanted to listen to and we'd listen to the tunes wail throughout those special nights of my childhood. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A number of years ago, his Recorder broke. I was going to get him a new one, but the prices were outrageous. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then thought to do a "McGuiver" on the broken Reel-to-Reel Recorder, it and fix it myself. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The parts for his Recorder were more outrageous than the notion of purchasing a new one--plus, if the truth were to be known, I really didn't have a clue as to how to fix it--rather, I thought it like an IKEA product—you know--sooner or later the pieces would come together on their own forming into something looking like that picture on the box. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead, I thought to look in other directions, what with the onslaught of VHS recorders, CD's and then DVD's, along with the ease of loading -- I introduced my Father to WinMX (a revived peer-to-peer internet site), and he found that he could upload and record on CD and MP3, the old music he loved--and more--the old tunes of his childhood that he could never before find. And all this for free. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An so, his tapes, boxed up, began gathering dust in a dark corner of the basement, right next to his broken Reel-to-Reel recorder. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sincerely feel for your friend, and I understand your comment.  Look around, it is happening all over. Not just companies falling out of time, but people, jobs, America itself. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I heard on the radio a story about how the major department stores are bemoaning the fact that yet another year has passed and few have met their forecasted holiday sales volumes. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I ask how can they be surprised? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;America is no longer the producer it once was. Most of the presents purchased were made elsewhere--outsourced to China, or a third world country more likely than not. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Christmas lights, decorations, and even fake trees are now being made in China. And that doesn't even touch the material (clothing/electronics) manufacturing aspect. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile--a growing number of Americans are working two jobs to support their family and their credit card debt -- and yes, somewhere in the mix is a mortgage or rent and other creature comforts monthly payments, like cable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank goodness for places of part time employment like Home Depot. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And a mega-boo-hiss to the retailers who missed their forecasted sales year... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The heartless person that I am, despite the crocodile-tears they cry, I tend to think: Maybe these retailers should have considered "buying" American products in the first place, as opposed to lining their pockets, while gouging America where it hurts the most... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow, that was quite a tangent -- Sorry I got off track slightly. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and thanks for the post, and the support to the EB. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-1472100688700621370?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/1472100688700621370/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=1472100688700621370' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/1472100688700621370'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/1472100688700621370'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-8-jan-2007.html' title='Reader Interaction - 8 Jan 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-6578988978847705289</id><published>2007-02-18T09:47:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T09:48:33.194-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 6 Jan 2007</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Possibilities Abound...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6 January 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for the outstanding article (your attempts to downplay your literary skills, notwithstanding). You've painted a pretty vivid picture for the reader of some of the possibilities associated with this great venture. What are its limits? Our imaginations! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My guess is the imaginations of several will be stoked at the CES next week!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;gktignol&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.- Would you mind commenting on some of the things mentioned in your opening paragraphs sometime?....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for the good words and the kind lies... The reality is, I am not downplaying my talents. I speak like I write, and I have had teachers berate me on that often in the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The thing is, as long as the intended audience gets the gist of the intended message, I call it a win. Others might call it literary-pain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the CES this week, consider this: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Win, Place or Show -- we still garner recognition and high marks. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My thinking is that even more heads will be turned as the possibilities surrounding ElectriPlast become better highlighted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS -- Did you happen to check out the links on that last piece? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Click on the hotlink that say's "CLICK HERE"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The video pretty much steals a number of my talking points for upcoming articles...

Just found out that Integral Technologies will not be having an exhibit. Just curious as to why. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will Electriplast be shown? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would guess yes, but not quite sure now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fellow Shareholder&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fair comment Fellow Shareholder,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My information is slightly different. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rather than get into a debate on the issue, let's wait for the CES show to open next week before we begin drawing lines in the sand...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK "with great cheer &amp; New Year optimism" sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was able to see that Integral Technologies will be giving a presentation on Electriplast at the CES show next Wed. afternoon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy New Year!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fellow Shareholder&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fellow Shareholder,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for digging a little deeper and uncovering the insight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are some on various message boards who will readily make negative claims in an effort to sway, or mislead others. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For them, it is not about uncovering the truth, the &lt;b&gt;fact&lt;/b&gt;s, the reality (however you choose to phrase it), but more it is about power that they sense they gain in raising uncertainty and doubt. For them, it could be something as simple as using psychological scare tactics to play shareholders, and manipulate the stock in this faulty OTC market. Personally, I think it may have more to do with an individual psychosis where this/these entity(ies) feel that (they) need to be taken seriously, and seen by others as a resource of information, and an authority for &lt;b&gt;fact&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That said, you realize there are negative influences out in the world. Just like you would do for your own -- I will continue to urge you, and others reading, to seek out the underlying truth behind what is propped up as &lt;b&gt;FACT&lt;/b&gt;, or impending doom on the message boards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truth comes in differing shades, and the best falsehoods come from those who most often cry foul, or those who play the fear card as they attempt to bolster their issue of the moment... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rather than getting sucked into the groundswell of that attitude, use the best and most responsible information resource available -- yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dig consistently; read between the lines often, and if that doesn't work, pick up a phone and make your concerns known to IR. Though IR may not always be able to resolve your particular issues, they should (when asked) point you toward a resource that you can use to further your due diligence rights as a fellow shareholder...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best from the Heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-8666036563003451139?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/8666036563003451139/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=8666036563003451139' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/8666036563003451139'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/8666036563003451139'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-27-dec-2006-5-jan.html' title='Reader Interaction - 27 Dec 2006 - 5 Jan 2007'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-7081406259928089600</id><published>2007-02-18T09:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-18T09:44:18.993-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 22-26 Dec 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; No Longer a Quest Part-III...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22-26 December 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for all the effort on this site.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Question: What would cause you to change your mind? I think I understand your reasoning about how ITKG is now focusing on smaller manufacturing companies and establishing the production process with Jasper. I agree that these are smart moves. It does seem to me also, at least from a stock technical point of view, that Intregral really has to make something happen soon. Witness how the market reacted to the ADAC news - the next day down 7%. It truly is put up or shut up time for this little company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am long this stock and wish it well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Merry Christmas, &amp; sorry to be so long in getting back to you…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You ask a question that asks for opinion – and though I do not mind offering one, know that it is merely my opinion as an investor/shareholder in Integral Technologies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You ask about timing and immediate market moves. I agree. Something does have to happen, and yes, sooner is by far better than later or never. In that regard there is little that I can tell you at this point. The news released last week regarding the ADAC agreement was not the news I for one was expecting. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sure, rumor abounded that there would be an announcement surrounding an automotive parts interest in the coming year, but there were / are a number of other rumors floating that spoke to more significant –readily recognizable—announcements which were also pending. Rumor had one of these coming forth first.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the markets reaction to the ADAC news that is an immediate issue which is not important at the moment. I mean--not to dress it up--but as an investor, don’t you think it a significant achievement to have a multimillion-dollar company doing business with your stock-holding company? More, don’t you think it important that the ElectriPlast IP finally migrate out of the virtual concept to the real world? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The impact of the immediate market reaction is nothing compared to the notion of getting the ElectriPlast product into the hands of real people, so that they can see for themselves what we have an inkling to – more, its important to get the ElectriPlast IP onto the market, allowing others a visual as to what is possible, and in effect putting it squarely on their radar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is always put-up-or-shut-up-time for this little company. Many an investor reading this Blog can tell you a story of how they too wish the stock could have seen the progress of this past year, years ago. As I noted in my last to you, and throughout this Blog, a number of issues held that progress to a stand-still: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Patents, being one of the issues seeing a resolution, with new patents being approved on a weekly basis.&lt;br /&gt;• Supply Chain aspect being another – that too has been addressed, its resolution has been reported in the recent past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, as shareholders, we find ourselves in an extremely unique position. The elements of success are truly close at hand. The foundations of an event occurring soon are in place. The daily price per share (PPS) might be a focus for many, and if that is the case, then I urge them to follow their conscience and sell. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality behind that is, until the stock becomes listed as a NASDAQ or AMEX entity, it will be subjected to potential market maker manipulation. That is good for some, but not for those who watch these things using it as a bellwether. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You asked my opinion – I offer it freely. Watch, and let the plan unfold. The CES is scheduled to hit in early January 2007. In addition, there will be other agreements and sales of product in the offering. There may even be interesting news from Jasper regarding…well regarding things that we as investors want to hear.

I wonder why nothing has developed yet in the way of revenues. (KLN)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;KN, that's a good point. Since 2001, they've made numerous announcements of licensing agreements and business partnerships, yet over the past three years, they've had revenues of $1k, $67k, and $2k in the years ending June 30 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm only just beginning my research on this company, but your comment, and their history of press releases without subsequent revenue, at least on the surface, makes this look like your typical OTC.BB scam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the flip side, though, they have just completed their first actual manufacturing agreement, which is different from the previous agreements in that it could actually lead to physical production of the product, and more importantly, to revenue. Additionally, a deeper dive into some of the aforementioned press releases shows that, while their titles seem a bit "pumped-up" most of them do merely discuss the exploration of market potential, and did not suggest immediate revenue generation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additionally, it does appear that the plans laid out in the January 6, 2006 letter to shareholders (to move toward production and sales) are coming to fruition (Jasper and ADAC), so I'm inclined, for now, to give management the benefit of the doubt that they are actually on the road to revenue generation and profitability. (Chris)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Readers (KLN &amp; Chris),&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for the questions, and for offering a chance to relay the story, as I understand it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, to KLN, the ultimate reason for the past few years you highlighted is due to Supply-Chain certainly, but more it was due to the uncontrolled actions of second and third parties. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That prospective agreements were noted in press releases is commonplace among partnerships that choose to signal their intention to do business. Motorola is one instance of focus noted in this writing, or rather they were. I would point you to the leadership change that took place as Integral released the press release identifying the possibility of entering an arrangement with a major cell phone concern. Dig into the history of the time, and you will find that the old MOT management had visited Integral’s offices/lab. In return, Bill Robinson and Tom Aisenbrey and others visited with Motorola and spoke with their leadership. All was on track, lawyers had met, and plans were made. Then Motorola company, again, stumbled in the marketplace. New leadership took over, and in the housecleaning that ensued, former management contacts once made, were replaced. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was a lesson-learned session for those at Integral Technologies. They realized that, yet again, they were relying on a large name player to carry them to success. They needed a change to their game plan, and a complete overhaul in their marketing strategy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you read Chris’ assessment, you will see indications of the change and signs of its emergence. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, rather than announce yet to be achieved successes, the company became more reserved -- holding back on the news (and rumor) until only after the real news had occurred.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, instead of looking for a large name company to latch their star upon – rather than look to GE or DuPont, they chose instead to focus on the question of how best to market their IP material quickly and in quantity. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Somewhere in the project management phase of the planning process, the notion of coordinating with/through one, or more established manufacturers came into being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company leadership searched internationally for just the right partnership – and while doing so, sought out solutions to the other various lacking Supply Chain issues that had hampered past efforts and kept the ultimate goal of success ever elusive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After almost a year of resolving the above issues, working out the kinks, and tweaking timelines, securing financing and resolving potential partnership concerns – Integral, as Chris notes, issued their 6 January press release manifesto, highlighting things to come; milestones; and a comprehensive overall game plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While it is fair to look at the past and use it as an indicator, also keep in mind that the past if remembered can be a teacher. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just like you won’t hold an incident against a child as it grows into adolescence and later adulthood, remember – Integral has experienced trending mistakes and in the past two years has learned from them, breaking the mold with a new strategy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From all indicators available, it appears that they are keeping to the game plan, and if you choose to hold that against Integral and their leadership, then that is your choice. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To me, I see the fact that multi-million dollar industries are taking serious note of the ElectriPlast potential, and are bothering to sign on board.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To me – that looks like something more is a-brewing, than the same-o, same-o mantra few unique naysayers would have you believe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to what I said early on, you have a Supply Chain in play. To that end, you also have a Manufacturer who has hired a multitude of workers to handle an anticipated increase in workload. You have patents with a host of patents pending. And, you have hands-on, international recognition in the coming the form of the Jan 2006 CES.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And this merely scratches the surface – talk about just beginning, ADAC is in play, along with yet another well know auto manufacture – and trust it won’t stop there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With over 100 Non Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) were commented upon in past press releases, you can count on that as fact – and we shareholders will see what other impressive well-known entities pony up to the table, and hear them loudly when they say:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;“Make Mine ElectriPlast!” &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sincerely hope that helped a little.

Nothing that I can see came of the posting or the question -- though, I like you, think it would be a major WIN scenario for Integral, and more for ElectriPlast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wouldn't count it out as a possibility, but I would not read too many positives into the silence either.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For now it remains an unknown...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-374416507435350334?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/374416507435350334/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=374416507435350334' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/374416507435350334'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/374416507435350334'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2007/02/reader-interaction-5-dec-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 5 Dec 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-8151263755418613312</id><published>2006-12-28T05:48:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-28T06:03:37.950-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 2 Dec 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Journey's Next Phase...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 December 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for the continued good work w/the blog. In my estimation you are providing a great service to the shareholders or those simply looking for more information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The manufacturing announcement ws a long time in coming. Hooray! I believe it was one of the best-written pieces to date.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that the manufacturing arm has been announced, what is your best guess as to the next phase of our journey?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TIA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you much for the words of appreciation for the EB and support –&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We strive for a fair and balanced approach in dealing with this Blog – though we have an obvious bias based on our understanding of pending events, and the history shared here. This is not specifically to address your question but please, give me a quick moment to speak to others who may be reading:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The comments/answers offered on the EB—as a matter of fact, the premise of the articles hosted, and the ElectriPlast Blog itself— (is/are) not given to feed into a pump or dump scheme, but rather, they are given in a manner to let the reader/questioner understand that this is not the sole resource for information, and more importantly, that throughout the process—they have a choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In regards to the comments/answers offered, some responses as a result may come across as wishy-washy, and for that, well…I look at answering the initial question, but then must also consider doing so while taking into account the fact that others may also be reading. As a result, my responses are tempered in respect for the fact that I am not speaking in a private forum to just one other individual. What I would encourage any wanting to interact and get a honest opinion is to simply send an email and ask your questions on a one-to-one basis with the understanding that it not to be shared beyond that. I will then offer an opinion with the understanding that you are responsible and aware of the choices associated and that my opinions are indeed biased based upon the varied insights &amp;amp; experiences I use to filter my views.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, jumping off of that soapbox, you asked about the:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#660000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Next Phase of our Journey?”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, the “Who” is already established – and the last press release notes that there are well over 100 non-disclosure agreements (NDA’s) associated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “What, Where, How,” well those are apparent givens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That leaves the “When &amp;amp; Why.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “When” is the question easiest to answer. It has already started. Over the past months, Integral and JARCO have installed the necessary equipment to make manufacturing a reality. If you had checked out JARCO’s website, you would have noted that they have been hiring recently for the forecasted increases in production. Were you one of their clients, you would have been briefed on a disruptive new material that the JARCO leadership believed would satisfied your needs and beyond—and may then have been invited, along with numerous other clients for tours and demonstrations of the product, the capabilities, and the various offshoot potentials associated. Were you to call have Integral, you may have found that Tom Aisenbrey has been spending some serious time in Jasper—but when asked why, you would have probably received a “no comment” statement. The same goes for the Integral CEO. He too has made a number of trips to Jasper—but little else is known (or rather, said) beyond that. Finally, according to the local Jasper news media, an article we intend to post on the EB later today (once an outstanding issue is fact checked), it notes that production IS presently taking place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “Why,” well, to make you, me, along with the various companies involved oodles and oodles of money is one aspect. But more the project management process at hand is to achieve a number of milestones. We have already crossed some of them and the price of the stock and investor awareness and enthusiasm has reflected—but more importantly, we have crossed them on time, and remain on schedule for the end result – how did Integral’s CEO describe “that end result” almost a year ago…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://electriplast.blogspot.com/2006/01/latest-electriplast-news-dated-3.html"&gt;http://electriplast.blogspot.com/2006/01/latest-electriplast-news-dated-3.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"While sales and marketing are becoming the key area of focus for us going forward, we realize that our most valuable asset is our technology. It is important that we maintain our leading industry position and continue to invest in innovation going forward. Our objective for 2006 is to continue expanding and protecting our intellectual property, while sharing the cost of innovation with our partners and customers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In conclusion, I would like to reiterate that I think we are on the cusp of seeing ElectriPlast(TM) achieve commercial success. I believe that over the next several years, we will be able to gain a substantial share of the conductive polymer market that has been projected by Business Communications to reach $1.6 billion by 2010. I want to thank you for your continued support over the past years. It has been an exciting ride for us, and we look forward to a very productive 2006."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So in answer to your question – the project was detailed in the linked 3 Jan 2006 article. The ultimate plan is to achieve commercial success, and gain an overwhelming share of the conductive polymer market—which will grow as the product capabilities, and various offshoot potentials become realized and applied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral has fulfilled its 2006 agenda. Now is the time to mimic the example of some of companies often referenced in the EB (like Microsoft, StarBucks, and eBay), and expand on the 2006 successes in order to make some serious inroads into capturing a yet-to-be-tapped market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, my friend, this is not a best guess. Based on the history witnessed, even in the past year, I would call the game plan detailed above as: "the Next Phase"…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers, season’s greetings, and best to us all…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-8151263755418613312?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/8151263755418613312/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=8151263755418613312' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/8151263755418613312'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/8151263755418613312'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/12/reader-interaction-2-dec-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 2 Dec 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-6258748806265556781</id><published>2006-12-28T05:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-28T05:47:37.527-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 27-28 Nov 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cautiously Impressed...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;27-28 November 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm seriously considering ITKG as an investment but I'm a little gunshy from some other Tobin Smith picks that have been disasters for me. So, I'm doing more DD than I normally do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Incidently, I'm in Bellingham as we speak...buried under 10 inches of snow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything about ITKG seems great...the potential is awesome...but there's seems to be one BIG problem. No independent engineer has created a product that we can see. Out of 40 experts that seems a bit strange. Somewhere I read that there was a problem of consistency within the formula. Do you know if this was a problem and has been solved, or still is a problem?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Incidently, regarding the Award...I'm cautiously impressed. I have been an international and national judge in the Direct Marketing field so I'm familiar with this form of high level award. The problem is the judges do not get to verify anything. You're given company-generated facts and have to hope they're real. To a large extent you're operating under a honor system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But whether the Awards are for real or not only time will tell. The key point is an answewr to my question above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TIA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for your suspicion regarding Mr Tobin Smith and his prior picks, I honestly cannot attest to good or bad. I had not heard of him until earlier this year--and only then though other Blog Readers such as yourself. I am not a subscriber to his offerings, though there have been times that some have shared. As for his past, well you have better insight than I there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I can relate is, despite what he notes in his stock reports -- he has no impact on Integral or the Management's decisions or progress to date. Were he not highlighting ITKG as a buy option, the stock would still have risen (maybe not so quickly, but it was on an upward progression all the same).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Earlier this year, Integral's management announced the overall game plan for this company's marketing campaign. This was the starting gun's report to inform all that Integral had transitioned from a developmental stage company and that it was aggressively working to now market their patented potential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I understand your caution, and realize the need you express to know more before leaping blindly onto something so potentially new, and not yet marketed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is risk involved in that thinking, but there are rewards associated too. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree, this is speculative at best, and your caution is deserved. BUT, you have an opportunity that many do not have before you. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are in Bellingham!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• You can contact the company and request a visit to the premises.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• You can speak face-to-face with some of the players associated with the birthing of this disruptive IP and get a direct impression before you invest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, I--being in Bavaria--am operating on an honor system, but I do have friends, whom I trust, and who had signed limited NDA with the Integral Technologies. It was these friends, who after their NDA expired, relayed their experience and impressions to what they were exposed to. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not to be lulled into blindly believing based on faith alone -- I do value the judgment of these friends. I value, in a few cases, their technical expertise in assessing &amp; evaluating their observations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes there are awards, and experts have lauded the possibilities surrounding the ElectriPlast IP, and the potential changes can bring to the table. And while, as you note, Judges for awards do not often get a chance to garner full disclosure and access to all materials being reviewed, depending on the patent, patent pending or other legal statuses associated -- they do get access.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's more than many reading this Blog have at present, and why when limited exposure to ElectriPlast, and awards offered are announced, people take note.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, you are in a great position to visit the Integral facilities. I would urge you to call, make an appointment and act upon that opportunity before you before you consider investing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best from the snow-capped heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-6258748806265556781?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/6258748806265556781/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=6258748806265556781' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/6258748806265556781'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/6258748806265556781'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/12/reader-interaction-27-28-nov-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 27-28 Nov 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-2439923767455980411</id><published>2006-12-26T06:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-26T06:27:17.724-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 20-21 Nov 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Investment Compass Bearings...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20-21 November 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The buying activity was solid today. Are we headed towards a Fortune 100 announcement as has been tossed around?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I managed to pick up another 23,000 shrs ($1.92) during the meltdown 2 weeks ago so the pick up truck is now full to the brim.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The CES news is a great honor but the Christmas present would sure be some major news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope you're doing well before the Bavarian winter sets in,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good for you on your acquisition. Many were listening to a few nay-sayers predictions of doom and darkness -- far from the reality surrounding this investment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company is still on track to doing business with Fortune 100 companies. Directly and through both Heatron and JARCO. These companies already have client lists and sales forces in play and working on their behalf. Both have the impression that ElectriPlast could seriously change their fortunes and are working hard to turn impression into something substantial.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral too continues to coordinate directly with its 40 or more initial corporate contacts, plus those Defense entities that QuanStar introduced them to last year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Solidifying the Supply Chain is key to the ultimate success here. Last month, BR and TA traveled to China for an unspecified reason -- trust that it centered on ensuring supply chain issues were covered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the recent recognition of the CES, that is an extremely large deal. The point of which is to direct eyes toward Integral's IP, and get them asking questions. The questions will be resolved with the first flurry of contracts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IMO, Integral and ElectriPlast is just about at that stage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter how it turns out, January will be an interesting time for all shareholders fortunate enough to get in--even at today's prices...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and continued best for you -- and us all...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS -- I am working on opening a new Blog in the near future - would you mind if I incorporate this email into it ((without personal information/names or email addresses associated))??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I've always said; You may use any e/mail that I send to you for your web-logs. I always appreciate your intellect and insight. At times, as an investor and true believer in ITKG, it feels a bit lonely because management is so very quiet concerning the operation and direction of the company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My imagination for what this IP could lead to in the future is as bright as sunshine. However, during some of these dark days it's nice to be following the guy (PK) with the flashlight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm still hoping, though you said it wouldn't happen, that the forthcoming Apple i-Phone will be equipped with a PlasTenna.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stay warm and best wishes to you...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-2439923767455980411?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/2439923767455980411/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=2439923767455980411' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/2439923767455980411'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/2439923767455980411'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/12/reader-interaction-20-21-nov-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 20-21 Nov 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116510307530902451</id><published>2006-12-02T15:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-02T15:44:35.316-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 10 Oct 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Any Good Words to Share...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10 October 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to thank you for your insight.  Do you think we are going to see any press in the near future?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you may know, Tom Aisenbrey is in Jasper at this time.  Bill Robinson (BR) is in NY finishing up on some business, and will soon be meeting Tom and others at JARCO possibly toward the end of the week.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In regards to press in the near future, the general thought is that usually, BR does not like to have press releases flow until he is in his comfort zone, back near his home base.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That said anything is possible when Jasper Rubber is involved.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rumor has it that there are a couple of customers present who are interested in using ElectriPlast material purchased by JARCO.  I don't know who exactly brought them to the table (former Jasper Rubber clients, or clients Integral developed lo these many years).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If it is an old Integral client, then a press release is destined to happen.  If it is a JARCO client, then that company controls the flow of information to the media because their first responsibility is to their client, and if that means giving that entity a marketing edge, by protecting the client’s product, or material source—then that is what they may do.  Sounds stupid, but it’s about legal matters more than common sense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of BR's travels – rumor has it that in November, he'll be heading back to China.  IR gave general information on his travels last time he was there.  This time around, his itinerary, and agenda is unknown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That doesn't answer your news question.  On that front, sorry, in taking a front door approach to gathering information, everyone has gotten tight lipped.  I’ve got to do some more digging around the edges, which means by the time I track down a reliable line of insight, the press release will have already been on the streets.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still, my interest is piqued on this one also...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers, and anytime as far as added value insight goes,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116510307530902451?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116510307530902451/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116510307530902451' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116510307530902451'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116510307530902451'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/12/reader-interaction-10-oct-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 10 Oct 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116510215045052030</id><published>2006-12-02T15:24:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-02T16:52:51.640-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 5-6 Oct 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Patents and Challenges to IP Ownership.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5-6 October 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been doing some research on conductive polymers.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is ITKG prepared for challenges to their patents?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason I asked is that IBM has many patents on "Inherently Conductive Polymer" processes etc.  ITKG patents are using "conductive polymers."  Sources have told me that there is a fine line between the two processes on what is used and how it is used in the plastic industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you comment on the above?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You thoughts are appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Glad to hear from you again -- and glad to see you uncovering facts for yourself on this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you may have read, the world is full of Inherently Conductive Polymers.  There are a huge host of them present in the world, and many scientists are working to develop that technology into something that will one day sweep the market.  From Chemical based Polymers to Electro-active Polymers.  The reality behind that bit of background is the simple fact, that though there are synthetic products that conduct electricity--none do so in such an efficient manner that would make them invaluable, or worthwhile.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consider this, electric companies would love to use copper wire on all of the power lines throughout the country.  Why, because they then could drastically reduce the amperage on the volts streaming over the line, and in turn save themselves millions of wasted dollars yearly.  Because they cannot, or worse, because they have to use a lightweight, poor substitute instead--like aluminum, these companies are stuck with using the technology available to them--even knowing that they will still loose hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of dollars as a result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why, because they have to raise the amperage drastically for the voltage to travel through the line.  It's like driving with your foot on the brake.  You'll get where you want to go, but the trip could have been more enjoyable if . . .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To date, all of the other player pieces on the boards do not have the conductive range or capability that Integral has and continues to display.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is one of the reasons why Integral offered its Licensing fee for 1 mere dollar.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once these various other client companies, related to Heatron &amp; JARCO, get a touch, taste and flavor to the possibilities associated -- get the example offered that this material is more conductive than the stuff of present-age technology -- then they will want nothing other.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its conductivity is that good.  Far better than the ICP stuff presently on the market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here’s an additional something to consider and possibly follow up on your own:  When checking the patents submitted, look for the name George O. Sailes.  In brief, that is the same individual, who filed many of the IBM patents.  It was his patent law firm responsible for filing many of the ElectriPlast patents. Of all people, he should know how close, or distant Integral’s patents come to the IBM patents. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He would have advised, if his research discovered that we were anywhere near the IBM patents. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is what patent attorney's do to earn their pesetas!&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Another way to express it is: Given the potential billion dollar markets for various ICPs, IBM, GE, DuPont, Bayer, and others, would have already filed their patents IF they had anything close to what Integral has.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Preston, Gates Ellis writes the legal framework for the ElectriPlast IP; George O. Sailes does the patent work. As a company with an explosive IP in hand, and as shareholding investors in this venture, we are buttoned up tighter than my spinster aunt!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best -- and read the following if you like: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://electriplast.blogspot.com/2006/03/electriplast-setting-pace-in-growing.html&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116510215045052030?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116510215045052030/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116510215045052030' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116510215045052030'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116510215045052030'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/12/reader-interaction-5-6-oct-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 5-6 Oct 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116509637654647415</id><published>2006-12-02T13:48:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-02T17:08:40.556-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 26-27 Sep 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Expressing Communication Concerns Directly to the Company Management.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26-27 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe your thoughts are accurate and correct. I have lost confidence in Mike Pound and Scott. I no longer will give them the time of day. Anytime I called Integral, Michael had a very smart attitude.  I believe their heads swelled as the price per share increased.  I wish that I could somehow send a message to Bill without going thru their website. I wanted to voice my thoughts. -- In a very constructive way, of course. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to tell you that I appreciate your insight and ideas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I too wish you could speak directly to Bill Robinson (BR), if anything, to help you in strengthening your confidence in your investment, but also out of common sense of courtesy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IMO, you should have noted that you attended the meeting at Jasper, and walked away with the feeling that he, or one of the other company leaders not only wanted, but also encouraged communication between the common shareholders and themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality is this though.  BR’s sights are set at the horizon.  Yes, he is aware, and sees the material potential daily.  He also sees the stock daily, but he sees this in different terms than you or I.  With the material potential, he has the edge.  Because his business advisors have told him of ElectriPlast’s worth in the real world--if it is as disruptive as advertised.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;· To that end, the fact that JARCO did sign an agreement validates that notion/truth of that question even more.  &lt;br /&gt;· Secondly, he sees the stock in terms of NASDAQ potential.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once the overall marketing plan reaches that peak, then the stock prices will fall into place, stronger hands--like Mutual and Hedge Fund managers will readily bulk purchase the company stock, and these entities are not likely to day-trade for effect, or sell their stocks out of fear/controversy, or rumor-based-confusion. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why I note that last--for the simple reason--these institutions are like banks--they are banks in a sense.  Before you, or I can get a business loan, we must have a business-plan in hand.  Before we purchase a home, we must have collateral or a co-signer available.  For Mutual and other Fund managers, they get to conduct hands on evaluation of the product, they test the market, and analyze and scrutinize for fault, or loss--before they invest.  Rarely do these Fund managers invest in something that is not on a major market, and rarely do they invest in penny stocks.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That Worthington did was telling at the time they choose to invest.  They were betting on the product, and possibly the company, but the IP material must have truly impressed them to encourage their investment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The point I am getting to--BR's sights could be far beyond this, or any false blips on the radar.  He is more than likely looking to the incarnation of day when all those patents become real, and the profit potential for each is used to multiply the bottom line.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The complaints you have today have to be about something larger than a 30-day pps (price per share) spread.  If the process of communication is broken, you have to be specific to address that, and come up with a solution.  If Michael Pound is telling misleading stories out of school, then that needs to be addressed up front and highlighted for effect.  If it is his attitude, then realize you are not the first individual he’s spoken to in the day, or week with the same questions, or the same concerns.  It is human nature to let attitude impact a work day -- it is human nature to have an off day also.  It is not human nature to mislead an erstwhile investor seeking information, and that should be addressed up front and if not to the person, then to his supervisor/manager.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, there is a course of action to take and make progress on -- you have embarked on that path, to engage the company with a complaint.  Rather than merely addressing it to BR through a blind Integral email, you might also consider forward your concerns and complaints to IMG, Integral Technologies' PR connection.  They, by rights, should be in a position to forward such feedback to the management directly--and if not, at the very least it should strike a chord of concern that you are reaching others outside their sphere of control to express your dissatisfaction with events and felt it necessary to involve others eyes and ears with your words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just thoughts -- once again, I meant to keep it short, but the ramble mode works best when I am tired, and it is well past my bedtime now...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116509637654647415?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116509637654647415/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116509637654647415' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116509637654647415'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116509637654647415'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/12/reader-interaction-26-27-sep-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 26-27 Sep 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116492431835920355</id><published>2006-11-30T14:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-02T13:54:25.173-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 25 Sep 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Missing the Milestones Covered – while focusing on the Day-to-Day Stock Price.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our stock is taking a beating.  What are your thoughts?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I'll say what I believe--that this is a temporary matter, good only if you day traded (which I don't), but that is not what you are asking for or about -- so here is what I think...  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This weekend, I forwarded a message to Integral's leadership through IR.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short I detailed my thoughts on the cause/effect and a ready-made solution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The extremely short version:  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “A” cause: the company's IR.  They may not be able to disclose all that everyone desires, and it is human nature to give more than one should especially when interacting over the phone.  This can lead some to walking away from the message of the day/month, etc. with false expectations or worse hearing something that was not said, or even implied.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The “B” cause: missed opportunities to get the right message to the investors or to explain the immediate and long reaching goals.  In this I mean instances such as not highlighting the QuanStar conclusion or worse, not explaining to the shareholders that they brought the company to the boardrooms of a number of leader military industrial corps, an Integral walked away impressing them all -- or that this was not a break but the conclusion to this phase of their established business relationship, and that both companies are still friendly and if the need arises in the near or distant future QuanStar will readily make its services available to Integral to further both of their interests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This could have been done for the confusing $1 licensing fees extracted from both Heatron and Jasper too -- a quick explanation to the smartness of this deal would have garnered the company investor buy-in to their long-range vision.  Instead, they left people to wonder, and wonder--with the addition of negative prompting from some with an agenda out there on the some message boards.  That, and the lack of visible forward progress and supporting words, may have helped in causing the effect of fear, and panic in those not yet able to see the true potential and encompassing capabilities surrounding the product IP, and this as an investment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The solution I recommended was to better coordinate their messages to reach their target audience -- not in a press release, but better, by using their "mass email mailing list" to target, inform and include (or at least enlighten) shareholders in the company's decision making process.  Treat their investors like the esteemed shareholders they are, and let them know that their investment and trust are appreciated, while at the same time, giving them just that bit more than which they would be able to read in a common press release.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality is, the fundamentals are the same as when we first corresponded.  In fact, they are even better now that Jasper is publicly in the picture, and with their production capability, who knows, one day they might even be announced as the nation's first ElectriPlast material compounder.  The supply-chain is coming into focus, and all pieces, with the exception of the additional patents, and following that, the announced clients, are in place.  Both are very close.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok, maybe this was a bit longer than extremely short.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a temporary situation.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Answer me this: What has really changed between the company of now and the company of $3.75-$4.10?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More importantly, do you doubt we will see that range again -- or surpass it once either of the latter pieces of the above-mentioned picture comes into frame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You asked my thoughts.  If Bill Robinson gets word of my recommendations, he could see an immediate net effect -- that and more importantly, he will be on the path to rebuilding conviction and encouragement among the shareholders, with the end result of garnering inclusive buy-in on the vision, and winning the hearts and minds of investors, while speaking directly to the stakeholders who actually “get” just how disruptive this material could one-day become.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I should change my moniker to the Rambling-man cause I do have a hard time keeping a conversation short...  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best to you,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116492431835920355?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116492431835920355/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116492431835920355' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492431835920355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492431835920355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-25-sep-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 25 Sep 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116492415305567693</id><published>2006-11-30T14:00:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-30T14:13:26.996-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 16 Sep 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Is Jasper Rubber Buying Stock in Integral?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you know if Jasper Rubber has purchased any ITKG stock thru any special offering? Somebody has given them financing.  All indication is that they were close to being short on cash. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great weekend. Love your latest Blog article. I look forward everyday when I check your Blog to see something new. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The big question is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are we having fun?!  I say--Yes. Life is good when you have made $135,000 on paper with ITKG stock. And it's all resting in a 401K account. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great weekend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You ask a great question -- unfortunately all I have to go on are rumors, which do not amount to much.  Suffice it to note that Integral is looking soon to place its stock on one of the major indexes in the near future.  To do this, they will require a substantial amount of capitol on hand, and depending on the exchange (AMEX or NASDAQ), the stock to trade at a $3 to $5 range for a period of time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to a solid source rumor, the cash is in-place and ready for this next step.  The company is more than likely waiting on that first major announcement to place it over the top and substantiate that trade target range.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, in response, at least to part of your question, I would not worry about cash-flow issues.  The arrangement between the companies will unfold, and your friends attending the shareholder get-together in Jasper might uncover more on that to substantiate the rumors already heard on this front.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and thanks for the good words -- my editor will be thrilled at the appreciation &amp; acknowledgement of and for his most recent good works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116492415305567693?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116492415305567693/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116492415305567693' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492415305567693'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492415305567693'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-16-sep-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 16 Sep 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116492403744374285</id><published>2006-11-30T13:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-30T14:00:37.453-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 14 Sep 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fearful Questions on Déjà Vu, all over again?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have talked with four other ITKG investors.  They are concerned that we are re-living the past when announcements were made with agreements but no revenue producing contracts coming to fruition.  One of these individuals is a substantial investor who asked a question that is hard to answer.  The question was this:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"In researching Press Releases in early 2000, ITKG came out with some pretty strong announcements that they had a couple of cell phone manufacturers in the initial phases of utilizing the "PlasTenna" product.  What is to say that we are re-living the past with nothing substantial and more dilution on the way?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did not no how to respond.  The question is:  how much longer can I get these guys to hang on before dumping?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am telling them to sit tight.  I can only hope and pray that this announcement is the beginning of several more announcements coming within the next two weeks.  Keep in mind, Bill Robinson (BR) and Tom Aisenbrey sat in front of 20 or so shareholders in Jasper Indiana commenting on 7 licenses before the end of the year.  I have to believe that Bill is not that dumb to be making those types of comments without being pretty darn sure that something will happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is so hard to try to get these guys to understand that the past is different from the present.  I can only hope that I am leading them down the correct path.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have an answer to that question, but it is late and I hope you do not mind if I take it on tomorrow so it will have a ring of sense to it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, realize this simple fact.  With the manufacturer announced, this puts Integral on a totally new level than it has ever experienced in the past.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Answer this question: How close is the Jasper Rubber/Integral relationship?  Once you do that, you will sense where my thoughts already reside.  By the way, you are spot on, this is a different time--but that would mean that one would have to believe that a company is aware of its past and is willing to learn from that.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for your friends or anyone else -- if anyone has a desire to sell, then you have to let them.  It is their money, and at the end of the day, their responsibility as to how they trade their shares.  I know it might sound heartless, and that we wish others could share in our good fortunes, but try as we might, we cannot enlighten everyone.  Different people have varying thresholds of understanding.  For some the act of investing is, simply put, divining reason and reality from the uncertain fear of the almost or unknown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If these individuals you speak of sell at a profit, then be happy for them.  You and I know that this has the potential of being larger, but for some, the stress of market risk is too much - let them go with their peace of mind intact.  And trust in the fact, the company will not sink due to their absence.  Once the first sale is made, and material validation is...well...verified, know that the shares sold due to personal uncertainty will be bought on the cheap by someone who "gets it."  That's someone who actually understands what the capabilities and product market potential are at hand.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from the Heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the historical skinny on the 2000 announcement, and the later announcement with MOT.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First -- Integral attempted a couple of different tact’s at getting into the market at little cost, and without going the route of buying into an expensive manufacturing element.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Initially, they tried mentoring under GE.  They even hired one of GE's former top pitchmen, an individual named RAVI.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This relationship was cast asunder due to the back-deal work conducted by both GE and Ravi with Integral left almost unawares.  BR caught onto the game and cut the relationship immediately, and fired Ravi to boot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They then worked with DuPont -- a tragedy I had mentioned in the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, during this time frame, they were lead to believe the skies were the limit.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They have sided with the market giants, and with their clout supporting them, they were allowed to dream -- the PR's of the time reflected the optimism surrounding the moment.  That and the fact that other companies Integral was introduced to, impressed by the association with GE, and later DuPont -- and more importantly by the solid supply-chain support these companies were able to guarantee -- these companies gave ear to what Integral had to say and upon seeing the material at work, became believers.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you will note, and as I hinted in my email yesterday, the supply-chain is the ultimate key surrounding both the success of Integral, and their successful introduction to the marketplace.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No company will do business with another if assurances cannot be given on product or material availability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because Integral never owned a manufacturing plant, they could not offer that assurance -- which is why they attempted to mentor under, work along side of, and finally license rights to larger companies who literally control markets, or manufactures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is where the difference rests.  Integral has found what they consider a TRUSTED AGENT in JARCO.  Now Integral can share the unique characteristics of ElectriPlast with a trusted outside source, which will have a shared investment in Integrals interests and material needs &amp; requirements.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, they tried dealing directly with companies.  This gave them freedom to allow the company to contact and negotiate deals directly with a recommended manufacture that had access to the secrets behind ElectriPlast IP materials.  This is where the deal with MOT began and died.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Simply put, BR dealt with one MOT management team who presided over the failed Sat Phone (Iridium) venture.  Hundreds upon hundreds of millions were lost outright on that prospect, and the loss nearly broke MOT.  There was also the case that Integral had yet to find a manufacture that it felt comfortable in sharing its IP secrets to -- but that is a later matter to consider.  Suffice it for now to know that MOT was one of Integral's first-steps to engage larger companies directly.  With each in the end, the supply-chain guarantee ended up limiting the marketing ability, and curtailed the promises of material delivery required before a contract could be signed...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, let’s go back to the MOT saga.  A new, more conservative management took over on the MOT board.  Unfortunately, Integral's contact, and former work-through Program Manager left with the earlier board.  Integral Letter of Intent to conduct business was passed on to the new strategic Sponsors within the MOT organization, and left to wilt and die.  Integral still engages with MOT, but not at the level they once did.  Whether they are still test bedding the ElectriPlast material is unknown--at least to me--at this time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's it for the history and on why the times now are so drastically different.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now BR can make promises.  Now, with the power and resources of a manufacturer/compounder behind him, he can tell company x, y, or z just how much raw material he can arrange for them to get, and when.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before, he could not...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS -- would you mind if I use portions of this and the earlier email in an upcoming Blog submission?  The words offered might be helpful to other shareholders echoing similar sentiments...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please let me know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from the Heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116492403744374285?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116492403744374285/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116492403744374285' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492403744374285'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492403744374285'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-14-sep-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 14 Sep 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116492377541504991</id><published>2006-11-30T13:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-30T13:56:15.416-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 12 Sep 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Addressing Questions on Patents Part II...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you again for your detailed and well thought out answers. I knew the 150 million shares were probably both a defensive matter as well as currency to buy something important (manufacturer possibly).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a little confused about what you said about a take-over company buying each individual Patent. I have not read any of the various Patent applications. I had assumed that the Patents are registered in the name of the company. These Patents are ITKG's IP and the basis of the company and it's business/value. Like QCOM or RMBS. When you buy this company you are buying the 100+ Patents, is this not correct?  I will do a patent search as soon as I send this because I am now very interested in your above comments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may of course use any question I pose. We're all hopefully seeking truth and knowledge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I appreciate your time and intellect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best Regards to you in Deutschland,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader -- sorry to confuse -- that was assumption on my part working hard.  I thought that you had already read into the patents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The patents are registered to Integral Technologies, but the inventions are all based upon Tom Aisenbrey's research and knowledge, and drafted/submitted under his and Integral's name.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That said, yes, a company seeking to gobble up a little company like Integral would find that the patents, though registered via Integral, have a codicil which notes Tom's role in their development, and shared ownership.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This would be the company's leverage in keeping an outsider from merely buying out the shares in the company to own the IP derived from the patents.  Tom &amp; Integral, would hold out for payment on almost each of the almost 100 plus near-term (within the next year or two) patents in the works now, and up to a total of almost 300 future patents--a goal referenced in past interviews on the subject.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All I was trying to note in my meanderings was that the company has built a solid foundation on the off chance that a hostile takeover could ever occur.  And with the discussion of having a trusted-agent manufacturer on the team, depending on the arrangement agreed upon; along with the true potential of the ElectriPlast material and its IP value to the marketplace -- well, suffice it to note, Integral's management will have not only controlling power over their product, but will be able to fulfill any and all commercial orders without pause.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both actions will serve to accelerate the company’s growth in the market, and with more associated product on the streets and in consumer's hands.  Such a move would offer ready recognition for the ElectriPlast branding label, and the materials overall capability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short - I see it as a good thing if, if this trusted-agent manufacturer relationship becomes as tight as my initial murmurings and thoughts wish for them to be. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality, and the rest of the story will come with time, but my wishes would fall in line with whatever military associations that were developed through QuanStar (such businesses would require a solid manufactured material supply-chain before committing contracted negotiations--at least that is my opinion of how that world would work).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, time will well.  In the meantime, we can research the speculated opinions, and push the possibilities just that much further.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from the Heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116492377541504991?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116492377541504991/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116492377541504991' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492377541504991'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492377541504991'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-12-sep-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 12 Sep 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116492351681898935</id><published>2006-11-30T13:39:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-30T13:51:56.823-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 11 Sep 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Addressing Questions on Patents Part I...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks PK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(&lt;strong&gt;Blogger’s Note:&lt;/strong&gt; This is a response to an earlier email containing information wherein one of the three parties interacting chose not to have their words shared beyond those addressed.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your friend sounds very excited about the IP and it's possibilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;May I ask you this; Does having a manufacturer mean (which is what I had thought they were going to be doing), someone to make the batches of the proprietary beads, (which are then sent to the 3rd party manufacturer/molder to make the finished product), or does it mean they need to have a factory with molding and tooling equipment and a processing/packaging line??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, let's hope that some great products from some great companies will be in the works soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I appreciate you keeping me informed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best Regards from L.A.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader -- all good questions...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again -- before I share my thoughts, would you mind if I share this email with others? I believe that the questions you asked touches the heart of issues that are of interest and have implications well beyond this brief interaction. Please let me know...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The primary importance of having a manufacture is trust, and maybe more beyond that. Whoever produces Integral's proprietary material will have access to the secrets that make ElectriPlast what it is... The same secrets that DuPont tried, but failed to reproduce on their own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beyond trust is the ability to dictate your company's needs beyond that of the manufacturer--who could be doing similar work for a whole host of similar niche companies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What you will uncover in the weeks to come, starting with the link below is that Integral has finally found such a company, and they do have a level of trust and understanding that will, by far, surpass work in their--and as shareholders--our favor. In other words, you might find that Integral may end up either buying into this yet-to-be-named-manufacture, or they may be bought out by this same entity. No matter how it fleshes out, we will end up on the top because--and this is the kicker and the most significant key to the position we find ourselves in--it's all because of the 150 million in shares added onto the stock back in April/May of this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://electriplast.blogspot.com/2006/09/electriplast-mysterious-manufacturing.html"&gt;http://electriplast.blogspot.com/2006/09/electriplast-mysterious-manufacturing.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How does that 150 million add to the mix?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Consider this, to buy out Integral, a company like GE or DuPont will have to pay large--well into the tens of billions--and far more after the word of the take-over emerges to purchase the shares necessary. Add to that, buying out the company will not be enough, they will also have to purchase each and every patent developed--more 10's to 100's of millions of dollars each.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my opinion -- The company never meant to use the 150 million that was added to the company's balance for selling to shareholders, but rather its use was meant for protection from any kind of aggressive stock take-over. Whoever tried an unfriendly takeover would hurt from the effort, and might make their own company vulnerable to similar actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know, well beyond the premise of your question -- I just wanted you to realize, the manufacturing question went well beyond the making of pellets, or molding material. The company Integral gets involved with will be able to do both most assuredly. Instead, the question goes to the heart of just how successful Integral intends to be with their ElectriPlast material. So successful that then possibly negotiate a merger with a plastics manufacturer -- one who sees such potential in ElectriPlast that it casts aside that host of other niche customers to dedicate all its efforts and attention to the security of IP issues and the ultimately further ElectriPlast's span of control into an unwitting market...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think along those lines, and I believe you will begin to see the vast, vast potentials associated to this IP and the shares you currently hold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that I have said my piece -- If you read the Blog, you might realize that both GE and DuPont at one time had a relationship with Integral -- can you begin to imagine how that favored line applies now...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from the Heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116492351681898935?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116492351681898935/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116492351681898935' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492351681898935'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116492351681898935'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-11-sep-2006_30.html' title='Reader Interaction - 11 Sep 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116420215267935404</id><published>2006-11-22T05:24:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-22T05:32:12.056-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 6 Sept 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Request for Information...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6 September 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just a hunch from myself, an individual shareholder..........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First, forget Motorola and forget Nokia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm sure that you are aware that one of the tech industry buzzing is that Apple has been developing a cell phone/ipod that might be ready to ship around the 2nd quarter 2007. Wouldn't it be both a coup for ITKG and a unique forward move for Apple if they introduced their first cell phone (which you know will have to be both spectacularly innovative, ground-breaking, earth shattering, and beautifully designed) with the new Plas Tenna. The first cell phone without an antenna (and with waaaay better reception) would be such an Apple thing to do. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My gut is telling me that ITKG is involved. I could of course be totally wrong, I am a dreamer, but if this were to indeed be a reality, can you imagine what a lightening bolt from heaven this would be for us shareholders. The entire world, from the millions of ipod kids, to the life long Mac junkies, to wall street analysts, to silicon valley techies, to Madison avenue. The entire world will be watching when Steve Jobs rolls out this phone in about 6 months. If this phone is as beautiful and spectacular as I know it will be, then this iphone will be the *must have* for millions of ipod kids around the world and (here's the dream part again) if ITKG is indeed involved then the people in Bellingham will be issuing future licenses as fast as Beetles records were selling in 1964. This Iphone could be another pop culture phenomenon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have a great site PK and I appreciate everything you do in relation to ITKG. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for reading/listening,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi there EB Reader --&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that is truly thinking outside of the box. . .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, I heard a similar story from a friend not too long ago.  The truth is, Integral's ElectriPlast/Plastenna is a good fit in a number of areas:  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From WiFi/WiMAX PDA's with Bluetooth and GPS capabilities (for an example, see ACER N35); to, as you note, the next generation of Apple's IPODs...and the list can go on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you do not mind, I'd like to pass your email on to a friend.  As I noted earlier, the association--or one very similar--had already been made.  I have been looking into the Military connections that QuanStar brought to the table over the past year, and the possibilities are staggering.  The commercial side is just as empowering, and all it would take is one well-known association to make this speculative venture into a NASDAQ player.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As an aside -- keep your ear to the ground for word regarding a future manufacturing connection.  If the few rumors I've run across are true, then once that becomes a reality, the providing of IP material to the various test-bedding producers in question--to include the Apple's of the world...well, let's just say that the more control Integral has over its ElectriPlast material, the more it's shareholders will benefit just through association alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best from the heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116420215267935404?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116420215267935404/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116420215267935404' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116420215267935404'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116420215267935404'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-6-sept-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 6 Sept 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116420170894067756</id><published>2006-11-22T05:19:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-22T14:05:21.266-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 31 Aug 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Request for Information...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;31 August 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can you send or direct me to a copy of the full report about ITKG?

Yet here the story goes again, we're just minutes away from inking a deal with and actual product, and the stock is taking off, again. Again. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's to say this is the real time?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was also wondering what's going on. The stock is taking off, but will it soon fall back again? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When will more patents be approved and will a deal ever be approved? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Internet searches provide very few clues as to what's going on. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is driving this stock up? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Promises? &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;-------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, those great questions. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In response, I would say that the Patents are the key factor in this event over all else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In prior years, the company acknowledged openly that they were in a development phase. Development means just that, testing &amp; validating -- and not just the product, but the markets they had intentions to exploit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While it is true, this could have taken off years earlier, one thing had always held that momentum back -- the lack of Patents . Actually that is not quite correct, and I'll amend myself now to note that history and lessons learned along the path also contributed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I noted in previous Blogs and in commentaries to those who emailed, Integral had a legal tussle over their initial WiFi/Bluetooth market venture years back -- their micro-antennas, reputed to be some of the best on the market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A legal attempt at blackmail by IAS Communications, a one-time partner to Integral Technologies curbed ITKG's initial attempt to go to market, just as the wireless niche market was starving for their promised contribution. By the time Integral won the lawsuit, the market had saturated with a number of other competitive antenna products. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During that lawsuit, Integral's Tom Aisenbrey invented the ElectriPlast material, calling it Plastenna--because that was their primary focus at the time. Over time, they uncovered a myriad of other potentials to this material and began developing them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that is another story. Going back to the main point -- after the development process began, the company leadership thought to further their efforts by mentoring under GE. This brief marriage did not work out, and lead to a relationship with DuPont. DuPont, after realizing the potential and value of ElectriPlast, acted inappropriately with their NDA (non disclosure agreement) access.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With that, Integral pushed in earnest the ongoing process of exploring and garnering patents for each discovered process that ElectriPlast excelled at. It was a blessing in disguise in that both the management and the inventor were forced to look beyond the box and discover multiple potentials beyond the antenna aspect.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was then that the company announced that it was becoming a Plastics' company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since then they have worked, in conjunction with PG&amp;E, those patent concerns and are literally ready to go forward both on the civilian side of the market, and through QuanStar, the military side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is to say that it is real this time -- I got no answer for you because that would be leading! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand that this is still a penny stock Ã¢ÂÂ risks, losses and potential benefits &amp; windfall profits all added into the mix. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you invested here, and have a sense as to the potential, then you are aware of the heights to which this company and its promising IP could reach. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If not, then I would recommend cashing out and watching from the sidelines -- but stand back. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whether you choose to believe it or not, this is a forward progressing story, and it will continue with or without you being present...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS -- What is driving this stock up is the same thing that put it on your radar. There is a good story with great potentials and possibilities associated. If it sounds plausible, and people are willing to believe then they will invest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If it sounds plausible, and people can sense the reality behind the story, then they will invest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If it sounds plausible, and people can see the product in action and sense the reality presented by their eyes, then they will invest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While it is true, a number of companies have testbedded the product for their own use, they are not the only entities in creation holding an NDA with Integral -- nor are they the only ones who have seen for themselves the reality behind the IP or this investment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a large amount of money being traded on this company, I find it hard to believe that the story is so widely spread that so many hundreds of thousands of people who are weekly--in the blind--forking down three bucks and change just to see their investment go through on the stock ticker. In other words, I would assume that one entity, or another has seen the product for themselves and as a result decided to invest a chunk of their own change based on their observations. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would assume that with the more companies out there testbedding the ElectriPlast product, that more than one entity is out there investing as a result...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But that is merely an assumption on my part -- otherwise, I have not heard any official promises, nor would I expect to. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the stock market -- and like in real-life, &lt;em&gt;"Risk is a Factor, not a Promise, or an Assurance". &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116419822550984043?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116419822550984043/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116419822550984043' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116419822550984043'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116419822550984043'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-23-25-aug-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 23-25 Aug 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116418234066068826</id><published>2006-11-21T23:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-22T03:36:50.376-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 30 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Addressing a Pundit Commentary from the iHub Board--a Tired Trend Continues...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;30 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Sputnik rants and raves on IHUB, I now have him on ignore.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you have any estimate of when ITKG will show signs of reporting revenues?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The patents are good news, and they are very significant, but after so much time we need to see signs that others are grasping and accepting the technology.  We need to see market acceptance and some testimonials from happy users. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When will this begin?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many thanks, cheers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testimonials &lt;/strong&gt;-- you'll see that as product comes to market, not before...&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The public word from the company is that this year, 2006, is the go-to-market year. Next year, 2007, will see ample evidence of that happening.  The rest-of-the-story centers on finalizing a number of criteria that past lessons had taught the company to take care of before going to market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1st&lt;/strong&gt; -- resolve all pending legal actions -- step up to the plate with a clean slate.  (if you review the news from the past two years, that is what was occurring.  Whether there was a possibility that someone could lay legal claims against, or there were true facts to support past claims, patents, in-house issues (anything that could kai-bosh a potential market run) these were addressed and resolved.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2nd&lt;/strong&gt; -- resolve the supply-chain issues -- if you review press releases and commentary from the boards or where every you choose to look, you will sense that the company principles have been traveling.  Not hawking their wares (not wholly).  More, they have been making inroads on the supply chain issues: manufacturing, legal, patents, marketing, networking-in-general.  Quanstar and a number of other agreements support that game plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3rd&lt;/strong&gt; -- resolve the money issues -- the proxy vote centers as the most recent initiative on that front.  Then there are the noted plans to move beyond the OTCBB to a more stable, orderly market--one where the market makers agenda does not curry so vast an influence over the daily pps movement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4th&lt;/strong&gt; -- closing some of the long established licensing agreements.  Some companies have been testbedding ElectriPlast materials for something like 4 years now.  (I know, if they have had the material for so long, why is there not a product on the streets.)  For the same reason that NASA doesn't launch prototype rockets.  Rumor has it that some of these companies are well known Fortune 100/500 entities.  Once the name is associated to the ElectriPlast product  -- well, that will satisfy your comment below.  Even still, no one can truly predict the market, or the times surrounding the emergence of a new product.  It's like predicting that the "Pet Rock" would take off as it did.  No one in their right mind at the time would have guessed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All I can say to the prospect of wanting something to happen is sit back and enjoy the ride.  Either you have a sense that this is a real thing, or you don't.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The ElectriPlast Blog is presented in a fashion to give you a peek at what is possible, but this is an investment fraught with pitfalls and controversy.  Let's call it what it really is, it's a OTCBB Penny Stock. Speculative as &lt;em&gt;HELL,&lt;/em&gt;  and just as potentially rewarding.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is going to happen will happen, whether you want it to occur faster, or in a different sequence.  The four items I listed above scratch at the surface of the things that have taken place behind the scenes and bought us to this point here-and-now.  Because I realize the history associated, I can afford to take a longer view.  The best advice I can offer after that is to let you in on the real secret.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"You have to have a vision as to what is possible when it comes to conductive plastics."  If you have read my blog, then you have a clue, but the following video link--also in the blog--should help to calm your passions for instant success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.utexas.edu/inside_ut/take5/loo/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;http://www.utexas.edu/inside_ut/take5/loo/&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116418234066068826?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116418234066068826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116418234066068826' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116418234066068826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116418234066068826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-30-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 30 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116414089319317986</id><published>2006-11-21T12:10:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-21T13:24:24.070-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 26-27 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Addressing a Pundit Commentary from the iHub Board--a Tired Trend Emerging...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26-27 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp;amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you familiar with Swartz and/or Wellington as Sputnik refers to?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Posted by: Sputnik&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good luck to you. I have followed this stock for several years. History has documented that when the Post Am is filed the selling security holders sell, not hold, especially Swartz. Considering that quite a bit is in the "Wellington" group of retirement funds a 100%+ return in two years leads me to believe that they will take the money and run. I know that quite a few don't want the past to be discussed here, but facts are facts.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes -- both...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as they (Integral's management team) were about to move forward in the marketplace with their line of Micro-Antenna products which were poised to address the newfound needs of an emerging wireless world; just after they borrowed a lump sum of capital from Swartz, a malicious lawsuit occurred. I mention aspects of that event within the Blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Needless to say, the impact was immediate, potential contracts were lost, and manufacturing agreements were stalled.  Integral was reeling from the implications of the lawsuit, and more from the time it took to conclude. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The longer the delay, the more companies --other than Integral-- could capitalize on what at one time looked like "their" niche WiFi/Bluetooth/3G wireless market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The suit lasted a year and a number of weeks. Integral Technologies as a company was almost bankrupt (but far from that point due to a new IP discovery), and they had a product which was no longer novel, or unique to the tech markets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During this lawsuit, Tom Aisenbury discovered ElectriPlast (then called Plastenna).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of the lawsuit, they kept this discovery hush-hush for fear of the opposition possibly dragging that into court and laying claim to its creation. ((you might now begin to sense where they get their tight-lipped attitude toward the outside world)).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While all this was going on, the company still had a loan with Swartz to deal with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luckily, Bill Robinson (BR) took a frugal approach to the contract, and used all angles to both pay off the loan in quick order, and do so in cash--from product sales--whenever possible. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, he did not do like some tech companies of the time did, prostitute themselves into hock to loan companies by using company stocks...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was how they became free and clear of Swartz and cut their ties completely. Hence, when I note that I am comfortable with the company's fiscal policies, I have a history to draw from.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What you might hear from this Sputnik may be different. If so, I won't express what I think of him or his observed tactics ~~ but I would encourage you to seek out the truth for yourself...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for Wellington -- they are still involved with ITKG, and have reaped great rewards from their initial buy in price as a result of their focusing in Integral's direction. I would expect that bond to continue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116414089319317986?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116414089319317986/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116414089319317986' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116414089319317986'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116414089319317986'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-26-27-july-2006_21.html' title='Reader Interaction - 26-27 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116413958265694634</id><published>2006-11-21T12:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-21T12:41:30.073-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 26 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Addressing a Pundit Commentary from the iHub Board...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you aware of this seen on the iHub recently:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Posted by: Sputnik&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It appears that the latest group of ITKG financiers is getting ready to sell there shares. The company just recently filed a post effective amendment with the SEC to announce the reselling (no compensation to the company) of some 11,000,000 shares. Why would they do that?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not of the post; but of the action (or rather intention of this action) yes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mentioned this to you in the past* as a matter of fact, my last post on the Blog was centered on this premise...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All companies have the ability to sell shares at one set price in order to raise capital for an event, operation, or objective. They sell these shares to an entity and that entity purchases them at a set price (sometimes at, or below market value). If below market value, then they have full rights to these shares, but cannot sell them for a set period of time (2 to 4 years) depending on the agreement behind the sale / purchase.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this specific case -- rather than to feed into that specific posters pointed agenda to raise an alarm and cause panic -- think for a moment and imagine: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why the company would want to raise capital at this specific time&lt;/strong&gt;* (a time when they are focused on selling a product, and fine-tuning aspects surrounding their supply-chain) ??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116413958265694634?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116413958265694634/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116413958265694634' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413958265694634'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413958265694634'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-26-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 26 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116413927716733917</id><published>2006-11-21T07:18:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-21T12:01:17.170-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 25 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Questioning the Proxy Vote, Continued...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I received this today and responded accordingly.

Sorry to be so slow with a response, but I only check this account a couple of times a week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll answer your question as best I can and attempt to answer any that may still remain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral's Authorized Shares (AS) was increased from 50mm to 150mm on May 10, 2006 via a vote of Shareholders. This was the first increase in the AS since the Company's inception a little over 10 years ago. Obviously, all of the additional AS have not been Issued -- indeed, if any of them have, it has not yet been made public. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe the current number of Outstanding Shares still stands at less than 50mm. That includes what's in the float, those that are restricted, as well as their warrants. It's clear that a small number of the AS (the numbers I have heard is 3-5mm) will be issued at some point in the future to raise additional funding.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may want to place a call to Investor Relations if you're so inclined. They should be able to give you the exact breakdown of what's in the flaot, how many are restricted, and the number of warrants yet to be exercised. But as I mentioned, I believe that total number to be less than 50 million.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope this helps.  It was nice hearing from you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;XXXXXXX"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116413927716733917?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116413927716733917/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116413927716733917' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413927716733917'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413927716733917'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-25-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 25 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116413842388881849</id><published>2006-11-21T07:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-21T11:48:55.893-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 24-25 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Questioning the Proxy Vote, Continued...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24-25 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just letting you know that I received no reply from the company upon my sending an email requesting the status of the true float.   I smell a big fat rat here; and I encourage you to look deeper into this matter as I have.  Someone holds a lot of stock to sell at anytime. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look at the recent drop for confirmation-lots of innocent people get badly hurt from stocks like this. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one ever asked the real tough questions as I have-and look at the decline!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the past, questions have been asked, and answers were given--that process continues as this company changes.  You are not the first to create that wheel.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not a financial analyst, or accountant, but I have great trust in those who have worked at that as a career. Those who have been at that task for the past 20 years and have the experience to share.  One of these individuals of trust is a friend, and he is working to sum up an answer to your query on my behalf.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FYI--the individual I am referring to, until recently, knows this company's principles.  He not only researched the company thoroughly, but he invested, and remains invested there also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until he relays his summary, rather than getting twisted over this issue, I might recommend you lighten your investment load for the time being.  Or, if you truly feel you smell the "rat" then maybe you should simply throw a pass at the whole investment option.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company will continue down its path, and the reality is, if you are as suspicious as your note indicates, that latter option might offer a certain peace of mind.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Over the past number of years, I have talked to a number of people on this very issue, and for the most part I am aware of the broad-stroke answers.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I noted, questions have been asked, and while you are right, the company will do little more than point you toward SEC reports submitted, there are those available who can read into the numbers and give you the honest answers to those "hard" questions.  Once again, I am far from an accountant--there are basic fundamentals that you must learn when it comes to stocks if you wish to truly track/trend that aspect.  I am aware, but have never learned the fundamentals--that is not my focus, and I won't pretend to be the expert there, but I will offer assistance when possible, and have.  I referred your question to one I trust.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this point, that is the sincere best I can do in offering a valid assist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116413842388881849?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116413842388881849/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116413842388881849' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413842388881849'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413842388881849'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-24-25-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 24-25 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116413727934751511</id><published>2006-11-21T07:12:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-21T11:27:59.356-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 22 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Questioning the Proxy Vote, Continued...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've reviewed past articles and unfortunately could not find the current stock distribution. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all know the number of authorized shares increased from 50 to 150 million. What I cannot find is where those shares are. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That difference is important since it provides us with the potential overhang of shares that could be sold anytime. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we have rule-144 stock involved, then that's great since it restricts sellers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the company filings show is that 15 million shares are held by warrant conversions and can be sold at any time by the shareholders.  But what about the other 85 million shares? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where did they go?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the deal in regards to the authorized increase of share.  The distribution is public knowledge and reported via SEC reporting criteria, but is buried (kept vague) because it allows for flexibility on the off chance that and outside entity attempts to buy out the company to suite their own agenda--through the purchase of the company's stock.  It affords the management, and at the end of the day, the shareholders, protection from such an event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, there is no leading intention to touch those shares in an effort to make a quick buck.  That would have happened long ago, when they first increased to 50 million share--and then there were financial considerations which could have tempted them management to look hard at going that direction.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this time, the financial consideration are low--extremely low.  Not that they are a money generating entity as yet, but they are not begging for their next meal either.  The company is solvent to the extent that they can afford to wait 1 or 2 years without outside support, and still move their product to market as the game plan dictates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know that you want more, and there is no sense in throwing the olive branch of trust at these people, you don't know them personally and their history means less due to the fact that it is merely a host of facts presented online or offered by me--and who knows what kind of agenda I have while running a website featuring of all things a little known stock company which has recently garnered a small bit of fame and recognition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I understand your wary hesitation and interest, and do not argue against it--as a matter of fact, I tend to appreciate such thoughts because they keep me from becoming lazy, sitting upon my personal giant, watching as the scenes unfold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no complaint and I encourage you to develop that line of due diligence further.  I will offer my view where needed or asked--but at this point, I can offer that I have touched this matter a number of times both in the recent and distant past.  I have covered the loan from Schwartz.  In all instances--I saw no deception against the shareholders, though I must be honest and note that I saw no eager rush for full disclosure.  This is information their legal advisors have offer advice on, and the managers at Integral are following those recommendations.  That said, I do have history to base my assessments upon also, and have used that to form my filter when judging the managements next step agenda/strategy considerations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Long email, I know, but I wanted you to understand where I am coming from also.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you wish to develop that Due Diligence, please do.  I have touched this matter a number of times in the past.  I am comfortable with this outcome and sense no tricks in the works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116413727934751511?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116413727934751511/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116413727934751511' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413727934751511'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116413727934751511'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-22-july-2006_21.html' title='Reader Interaction - 22 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116412235556407156</id><published>2006-11-21T07:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-22T14:06:33.710-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 22 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Questioning the Proxy Vote...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On 10 May 2006, the company issued a news wire re: increasing the number of shares from 50 to 150 million. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you know if any of those shares are restricted? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If not there are at least 11 million shares added to the float from the conversion of warrants from private placement deals. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yahoo shows the float at 40 million.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need to focus on the correct current capital structure of this company.  Any facts you could provide will be very much appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The stock increase and proxy vote were covered in past Blog articles.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yahoo does not focus only on Integral Technologies, nor are they accountable to keep all of their links up-to-date.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you uncover anything other than that featured within the articles detailed on the blog, please let me know and I will post accordingly.  To date, the company has disclosed what they have and could.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The motivations surrounding the proxy vote--to my sense--are transparent, and are in preparation to firming the foundation of/for future events (the expected market breakout, and mass stock movement of ElectriPlast).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, if you believe my view, or the views posted on the EB are incorrect, then I am open to learning, and correcting my worldview.

I actually bought it back in 2001 and have spent the last several years wondering why. I rode it up to 1.98, all the way back to .27 and now to new un-chartered territory. A couple of friends who bought in last year sold at 3 but I have held on (probably too long) to see where this might go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While the "story" of ITKG sounds good many tech companies do. Do you really believe that: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(a) ITKG has stumbled onto valuable intellectual property that can have mass appeal? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(b) And, that their 5 man company w/ very little financial backing actually has the ability to capitalize on it? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not exactly the kind of company, especially trading OTC, that one can really analyze to make a rational decision to either invest in or to remain invested in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since you have clearly spent some time creating your Blog I thought you might have a different perspective.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't feel odd at all about asking a question--and I won't tell you any outrageous lies about this company, or it's potential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality is this is a highly charged, and even more highly speculative stock venture. The reality also is, if the story has the chance of being true, your investment will be akin to that of being one of the first to invest into Wal-Mart, Microsoft, eBay or Starbucks. It is that risky, that dangerous, but also that potentially explosive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason I am bothered to work a Blog on this "as you call it" story is simple. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are a number of dis-separate reports highlighting the potentials associated, but no resource--to include the Integral website--which brings it all together. But more importantly, I do this because the timing behind the prospective roll-out of this company's product is right, right now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are a number of issues which makes me believe that this unseen, untouched material is real. Singularly key are the approved patents. There is also the money that some well known Institutionals have committed to this venture--in addition to the tests conducted thus far--though not open to public review. All of these issues add flavor to that 'story'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Suffice it to say, there is supporting evidence to the realness associated. But I can understand your unease with the market, the product, and the eventual--at the end of the day--deal ever coming through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many things that can go wrong, but I will be honest with you. Until we even get near that point, the stock's price per share will grow by leaps and bounds beforehand--and by that time whatever problems that emerge then, will have the solutions available to resolve them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not like there is no tangible product or smoke and mirrors are involved. Within the next year, ElectriPlast products will be on the streets--in products produced by highly regarded, well known corporate names and manufactures. The patents note the potential. If half of what's reported in these write-ups is valid, then mass markets may well become impacted. My Blog is present and merely scratches at the surface of the potentials gleaned from those approved patents. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those not yet approved (provisional patents) talk to the prospect of plastic based conductive wire, able to pass more voltage at lesser cost from point-to-point. They talk to the prospect of making molded circuit boards, with all components made from varying measures of the same material---all ElectriPlast based. And those are just a few examples. There are over 100 provisional patents--with more being worked--in the wings waiting for approval.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there you have it. The stock will rise and fall, but it is in an upward progression at this time, and in my opinion, it will continue down this path until specific licensing agreements are penned, and the names of those companies associated with ElectriPlast become known.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those are the underlying factors which will continue to support the growth of the stock and its price. Once these issues are known, the price per share will either explode dramatically, or falter. We are not there as yet--so when I note that this is the "rightness" in terms of timing and investment, I use this as the basis for my reasoning, and from that perspective, have no fear over a daily rise or drop in stock price--it is all relative until the above underlying factors become realized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope that helped somewhat...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116412350841182319?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116412350841182319/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116412350841182319' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116412350841182319'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116412350841182319'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-19-22-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 19-22 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116412182315680291</id><published>2006-11-21T06:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T06:39:27.603-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 21 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Appreciating Positive Stock Days...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;21 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has anyone emailed you to explain the huge drop in price?  People are losing their shirts now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No explanation--to be honest, I looked more at why the stock price per share (pps) increased as it did...  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At first, I thought that word had migrated that news on a deal of some sort was leaked.  After looking further, I realized that the initial spike was the result of a massive institutional purchase--everything that generated afterwards was the result of speculative investors playing at day-trades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mentioned to you in the past that the foundation is at this time rests $2.75-$3.00.  From what I can see, that still stands for the moment -- that is until news from Bellingham alters that math...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My sense is, the chances of a rebound are strong.  Moreover, those who sold and lost their shirts never quite got idea surrounding the potential impact ElectriPlast would have on the market once associated products began hitting the streets, and licensing/contract agreements become realized.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The stated goal of Bill Robinson is to move the stock from the OTCBB to the AMEX or NASDAQ in the very near future.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Depending on the news and breakthroughs that occurs in Bellingham, the when on that question mark will be satisfied.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reality is, the company is--short of squaring out the supply chain issues--almost there at this point and needs a major licensing deal to make it happen.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once Integral moves from the OTCBB to a more stable playing field as the AMEX or NASD, then the stock manipulation by the market makers will have a far less impact on the day to day, and the drastic swings we see now will fade due to the scrutiny of ever-present regulators watching the market makers and detailing the ebb and flow of their actions...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not to be blasé about the price per share on any given day--a draw back is not always a bad thing...  But I, like you, appreciate the positive days far more than not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116412182315680291?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116412182315680291/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116412182315680291' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116412182315680291'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116412182315680291'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-21-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 21 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116405801757792377</id><published>2006-11-20T13:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T06:37:12.663-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 18-19 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Readers' Initial Conception of this Q&amp;A Blog...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18-19 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What market cap should this stock have? How high will it go?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just invite people to communicate with you via email.  Then post the results.  They can also join the IHUB bulletin board which is already in place.  Let me know what you decide to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Investor Hub option sounds like a viable option--and in checking it out, I see that it already has a moderator.  I will email him to see if he is up for such collaboration.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In regards to the Market Cap associated to this company's stock -- I have heard, via email from other Blog readers who shared some of Mr. Tobin Smith's comments, that he sees vast potential, and I believe he keeps referring to it as a 10-bagger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personally, I do not know for certain.  The market for the IP in question is unexplored (or rather, limited forays have been made, but none successful due to the poor quality material used at the time).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company has &lt;strong&gt;three&lt;/strong&gt; things going for it at this point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Interest&lt;/strong&gt; -- the prospects of ElectriPlast has the potential of touching every manufacturing product, and to that extent, the capabilities are limitless.  Once the first sale is made, and the product hits the streets, its viability and value will be proven.  From that point on, we are dealing with a real, touchable, working, material--and that could catapult the market value considerably.  Think on it this way.  People invested here are like venture capitalists.  Granted it is not the exact same, but this is a penny stock, and these shareholders are investing now into a dream, sight unseen--which if it works, has the potential of multiplying their fortunes dramatically...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Patents&lt;/strong&gt; -- the company has learned from its past mistakes, and now trusts in garnering the required patents before moving their product beyond the realm of their control.  This is one prime reason behind the slow development and marketing of this ElectriPlast material.  The short of it is they were not well protected.  Within the next year, approximately 90 patents will become approved, with more being applied for to supplement the growing number of prospective uses of the material.  One story, not well known, deals with a time, maybe 3 or 4 years ago, when DuPont had taken Integral under its wing, with promises to bankroll further development of their IP material.  Tom Aisenbrey, smartly, did not share the secrets behind the creation of the ElectriPlast material--even though DuPont offered space in their labs for him to continue his work.  It was discovered (rumor has it, by some patent researching Integral shareholders) that DuPont was quietly submitting patent applications for materials with similar properties/abilities to that of Integral's ElectriPlast.  Rumor once again has it that Ellis, Preston &amp; Gates stepped in and confronted DuPont.  Their working relationship was severed, though you cannot walk totally away from a market leader.  Still Integral left with their IP intact.  Now, DuPont, realizing the missed opportunity--and moreover possibly the future potential involved, is attempting to play nice.  At least that is how I read the situation.  Suffice it to note, patents are the key to this company's fortunes, and future success.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Finally, the Need&lt;/strong&gt; -- On the Blog, we have discussed the need of such a diverse material.  As a matter of fact, almost 80% of the Blog's features detail issues of present or future need, and the technology enhancements associated. This is not a limited wonder like fiber-optics.  ElectriPlast, in all its incarnations, has the potential of changing technology as we understand and view it today.  A number of companies realize this and have been quietly working with/test-bedding samples of ElectriPlast materials.  My sense, its integration into our society will be something like that of the cell phone.  Once they were the exception, now they are the rule.  Try to find a payphone these days, you will catch my meaning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Tobin Smith referred this to a 10 bagger.  In an effort to not hype the potential or the validity of his assessment, I have a sense that once it hits the streets and becomes a tangible issue, it could become like a Starbucks, Microsoft or the like.  Only then will the potential become truly realized.  For now, take the 10 bagger statement for what it is worth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That almost sounded like a possible Blog entry -- would you mind if I considered using it and your question?  Let me know. . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards once again, from the heart of Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116405801757792377?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116405801757792377/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116405801757792377' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116405801757792377'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116405801757792377'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-18-19-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 18-19 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116405723186560213</id><published>2006-11-20T12:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T06:36:23.583-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 18 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In Search Of other ITKG Discussion Boards...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is there a daily discussion board re: ITKG&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are a few.

They both had jointly worked on antenna products, but IAS took the lead scientist who had just (at that time) built something called the CTHA antenna.  CTHA was a novel new antenna technology which was reputed to turn future antenna technologies on its head, changing the world and burying the competition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this act, the companies--now wary of the others motivations--decided to split and go their separate ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The companies signed an agreement wherein:  IASCA was given the green-light to do business with the lucrative Government/Military markets.  Leaving the private sector marketplace for Integral and their separate product lines.  The arrangement was that their paths were not to cross, and lawsuits would be enforced if they did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That agreement was made, but as time flowed by, the CTHA was found to be flawed in every sense of the word.  Meanwhile, the WiFi market was on the verge of breaching everyone's expectations of the market, and run amok on the world in whole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IAS, seeing Integral's success wanted a piece of that action.  They tried talking at first, but Bill Robinson was having none of that.  Then the threats came.  Integral ignored them, and pressed on with the next phase of their marketing program for their new Micro-Antenna products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was about 5 years ago.  Wow, it's hard to believe--that is a long time.  5 or 6 years ago, when Integral, then a small/micro antenna company with a host of good products on hand, was poised to enter and take that--then--niche market by storm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the potential for deals in hand, IAS struck.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shortly before the first deal was signed, IAS issued a lawsuit, claiming that the technology used in Integral's WiFi product was stolen from the CTHA -- Something they new was a blatant untruth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The court case, which lasted almost 8 months, was resolved in Integral's favor, but WiFi had moved on by then.  Were integral to have pushed forward, they would be one among many--with no unique attributes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead--during the legal battle, Integral / Tom Aisenbrey, uncovered the secret to ElectriPlast, and a new corporate path emerged overnight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was almost 3 years ago.  Since then, Integral has been busy obtaining patents on almost every conceivable use for ElectriPlast.  From wires in your car to, well you name it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a good story then, and has emerged into even a better story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not in love with this or any other stock, but I do value the fullness of a story, and this one has the legs to make you believe the gist of what you hear in its regard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that is just a very small slice of the whole story.  But it may give you a sense as to why I was here then, and why I have kept tabs on the company up to now...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116403409260977384?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116403409260977384/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116403409260977384' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116403409260977384'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116403409260977384'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-17-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 17 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116402609329242561</id><published>2006-11-20T04:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T06:26:22.023-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 15 July 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Once again, words from Tobin Smith causes Inquiring Minds to Seek more Info...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15 July 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello: I am always able to track down which stock Tobin Smith refers to. I don't have to subscribe and it's sort of fun when I find it. It was your Blog that put me onto Integral. I will watch it. It's moving today while rest of market is down, probably due to Smith's newsletter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi there EB Reader, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good to meet you.  Anything I say beyond this point will be hyping the stock, which I do not want to do...  Whatever you uncover on your own should be enough to put you on the path to deciding for yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I do want to note is that we'll be updating the Blog with a couple of new stories this weekend which may be of interest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime--if you don't mind--can you tell me how you can track down the stocks TS recommends?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be honest, I had never heard of him until what, almost 4 months ago, and that word came from a Blog reader who connected the dots on his own and tossed an article my direction.  That he is tracking it just brings a synergy to the deal, but since I too do not subscribe to his newsletter, and am curious (and tired of seeing bits an pieces shared by others interested in this company).  It would be good to see what he is talking up...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best to you,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116402609329242561?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116402609329242561/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116402609329242561' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116402609329242561'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116402609329242561'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-15-july-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 15 July 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116402548928023215</id><published>2006-11-20T03:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T04:04:10.836-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 18 June 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Concern over Past OTC Pump &amp; Dump Burns...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18 June 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for your earlier timely response.  I will be looking forward to your next ElectriPlast Blogpsot post as events unfold this year and beyond.  I don't have a very large position in this company, and what I did contribute towards my investment of ITKG was with what little in can spare within my tight budget.  This is why I am searching for every tidbit of information I can find.  I too, did not have very much luck with IR in receiving any definitive answers and actually was left feeling like I had MORE questions after speaking with their IR representative.  If I could receive any positive definitive information, I would quickly double my position with the remaining funds that I can spare.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unlike many other OTC.BB companies, the amount of patents ITKG holds rights to is staggering.  The claim Aisenbrey has about his product makes me wonder why tech companies haven't been scrambling to adopt ElectriPlast into their manufacturing methods.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it because ITKG will simply choose not settle until "the price is right?"    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder if I took a trip up to Bellingham, if IR would show me a working model of one of their ElectriPlast / Plastenna products.  Actually being able to physically see and use one of their prototypes while comparing it to existing technologies would make me a much more confident investor.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you know of anyone who has attempted anything of this sort?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am inclined to think that they wouldn't allow it for a small time investor such as myself, considering how secretive IR seemed to be on the phone with me.  Which leads me to my next question: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why all of the secrecy? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is information regarding 'who' they are aligning themselves with such a  mystery (excluding the Heatron contract)?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since Integral's IP is currently protected, what would it hurt to make that information public? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I consider myself a progressive investor and I believe the future holds many exciting developments.  I'm fascinated by the opportunities in the unfolding technologies in the other stocks I own hold such as Suntech Power(solar energy), Evergreen Solar, Powershares Wilderhill Clean Energy ETF, Intuitive Surgical (robotic assisted surgery equipment), Exelisis (promising biotech), WiMAX stocks, etc.  All of these companies had a much greater amount of information available prior to my plunking money down on their stock, which made me much more confident.  Of course, many of these came at the recommendation of Tobin Smith or my Fool.com 'rule breakers ' subscription service.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of these stocks / ETF's have tons or room to grow as they their market penetration grows over the next decade.  My hope is that the same occurs with ITKG.  I think one of the greatest things that could happen for this company would be to get out of the OTC.BB range and become listed on the NASDAQ exchange, resulting in a much higher visibility.  I believe much more information will need to be released by ITKG before that happens.  Warren Buffet once said: "I only invest in what I can understand."  To date, the only things that I truly understand are: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(1)Integral's IP presents potential for huge profits in the future.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;(2) Tom Aisenbrey's claims are terrific but I've never personally seen or used their product, therefore I do not fully understand it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(3) Tobin Smith is touting the stock, but I do not know if he has ever personally validated the performance of ElectriPlast-enhanced products, therefore I don't know if he fully understands this company either.  It's probably worth noting that Tobin is a multi-millionaire and has a lot more "Vegas Money" than I and can take a substantial hit to his portfolio without blinking. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(4) My thoughts often wonder "why the secrecy?" Their IP is now secured by the patent office. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(5) Although I could hardly claim to be an expert in solar power, robotic assisted surgery, WiMAX applications and biotech, the amount of public information on these other tech companies was much greater, giving me a much better grasp at being able to understand the companies' concepts.  It has been almost uncharacteristic of me to invest in a company with so much speculation abound.  Again, I'm banking a lot of the reputation of Mr. Smith. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(6) The stock has held strong in the  mid 2's range for the past month and half, which leads me to believe there a large number of people feeling more confident, or at least as confident as I do about this company's products.  The volume drastically decreased last Friday but no but the price actually increased.  I would take that as a good sign since no one sold off when volume decreased.  It would lead me to believe most ITKG investors are adopting an accumulate strategy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My apologies if I've sounded too negative.  I'm just very analytical and try to objectively analyze all of my stock picks from both the positive and negative.  Also, you're one of the few that I've managed to get any type of intelligent answers from regarding ITKG, as most message boards I visit (such as RagingBull.com) involve people simply belittling one another instead of intelligently attempting to analyze this company's prospects.  In the end, the positive indicators still outweigh the near silent secrecy of corporate.  I'm still holding and am prepared to hold for a long time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just feel that I've worked too hard for my money to invest in an irresponsible manner, and having been burned by a couple other OTC.BB companies, want to be as sure as possible about this one.  (I told myself this is the last time I would try investing in an OTC.BB company.)  Like I said before, your website / insightful email responses help boost my confidence in this company.  I could only wish that IR would begin to follow that trend.  Keep up the great work on the website PK! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regards,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi again EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your note struck a chord throughout the reading.  If you were to call and tell IR that you were in the area and merely wanted to see if the investment was real or not, offering to make an appointment during your stay, I think they very well may accommodate you--but they will probably ask you to sign an NDA (non disclosure agreement) before they showed you anything of value, and explained more about what was on the horizon.  Were I there instead of here in Germany--well I would miss out on all of the good beer to be certain--but I would do just that in order to validate my investment and ensure that there was more to it than a fly-by-night penny-stock option...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At least that is what I would want to do...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the secrecy, there is a story--I touched upon parts of it in my Blog when I discussed the company's past relationship with IAS Communications, which eventually ended up in a lawsuit.  Since that time, Integral's management has had its trust sorely tested by entities exposed to the capabilities of ElectriPlast and the potentials displayed.  Think on it this way, one business motto is 'its a dog-eat-dog world'.  To this end and as a result of experience, Integral ended up hiring a top notch law firm to represent them.  They have aligned themselves with QuanStar as a mediator to push their product and act as a medium between other aggressive companies looking for an advantage in today's marketplace.  They also get advice and financing from two strong money market leaders Wells Fargo and Wellington Financial--who itself is invested into the ElectriPlast potential.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short some of Integral's earlier attempts to market their product through larger named entities backfired.  These entities hindered progress (either in hopes that Integral would run out of money and bankrupt itself--or until they could steal Integral's Intellectual Property (IP) from underneath them) all the while smiling in the company management's face and offering assurance after assurance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can even look at the attitudes of an number of the questionable, but definitely agenda-biased entities on the RagingBull as an example as to why it would not be wise to share information with such unknowns.  What they might do with unique or privileged information in a medium where irresponsible &amp; anonymous interaction is the norm rather than the exception is troublesome.  Were one of these individuals to have access to--and take bits and pieces of that information as spread it as truth or as falsehoods for whatever reasons drive them, well, such a scenario in a rumor-driven arena could end up being even more harmful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think on it in this light, why do you think Integral chooses to be so secretive--more over, why do you think they are so aggressive on the patenting of their IP.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In short, the management is looking to market their ElectriPlast / Plastenna materials, but in an extremely smart manner, wherein they maintain the maximum control over their product--and at the end of the day, the maximum control over incoming revenues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is a thankless position they have put themselves in, but there is a method to the madness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, I cannot explore this train of thought on the ElectriPlast Blog because--though some of the facts are known--at the end of the day, I will come off as more than a shareholder interested in exploring the good, bad and ugly related to the company.  I will end up sounding like a shill, touting the pluses, and with that, my judgment and perspective would be damaged by implication.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Better to let people uncover the facts and reasons for themselves--the facts are indeed out there if you choose to read between the lines.  Moreover, if you do have access to the company and can visit, you can present the questions yourself in person, and get point blank response to base your judgments upon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although they do not tend to talk bad about existing companies (mainly because there remains a necessity to possibly do business through them) they may detail underlying facts related to a past episode of interest were it done in person.  If the response validates what I have noted above, or whatever you uncover on your own, great.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just keep in mind, the company has made mistakes, but throughout it all, it has learned, adjusted and compensated for their weaknesses or shortcomings--and continues to look forward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a finish line out there.  Once the product emerges on the marketplace, and the diversity is truly exposed, you will see that this is not a mere "3-Bagger," and that your investment could be as farsighted as those who initially invested in eBay, Microsoft, AOL, or Starbucks when those companies first came on the scene.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral has developed a foundation; they have the advisors and contact people in place; they have marketed their product with some 40 plus companies who have been testing it in-house for their own uses and schemes; they have financing established; they have legal issues covered through Preston Gates Ellis; and finally they are taking care of the supply chain issues (manufactures and material producers who supply the mixed product to those 40 plus companies).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the news you would want to watch for over the coming months.  After this is firmed and established, the starting gun will sound off, and the race to that finish line will begin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granted, that is merely my opinion.  But logically speaking, it is the only piece of the puzzle missing at this point.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once in place, there is absolutely no reason why this rocket would stall.  Heck, they have already established chain of command protocols.  The team, if they must go anywhere, each travels separately (on different planes, different vehicles, whatever) just to ensure that the dream continues despite the loss of one of its figureheads.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my honest opinion, they are taking this seriously, I understand your concerns, but I believe what we are watching from the sidelines is real, and the potential explosive...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, enough with the conspiracy theory talk.  If you have the chance to pay a visit, I encourage you to call ahead, make an appointment, and do so.  If you do, please relay whatever you uncover--as long as it does not conflict what whatever NDA they have you sign...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best regards from Bavaria,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116402548928023215?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116402548928023215/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116402548928023215' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116402548928023215'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116402548928023215'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-18-june-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 18 June 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116402385553761124</id><published>2006-11-20T03:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T02:30:28.606-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 17 June 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The "Don King" approach to Marketing ElectriPlast...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17 June 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First and foremost, I would like to take the time to thank you for what I would consider the most comprehensive website regarding Integral Technologies.  You have obviously uncovered more 'stones' than I would've in my own research.  I continue receiving 'buy' recommendations from Tobin Smith on Integral on the premise that large contracts are coming within the next two quarters.  Now, the latest post on your Blog seems to confirm this. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just would like to see if I'm interpreting this correctly.  As stated in the latest post: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"BR and TA said that there should be “two or three” announcements in the next quarter. (EB Note: One source said “one,” the other said “two” of those company’s are Fortune 100 companies who are located in the “Chicago/NY area.” The latest F-100 listing for those areas list: IBM (NY) #10; Boeing (Chicago) #26; Motorola (Schaumburg, near Chicago) #54; and Honeywell International (Morristown, NJ, near NY) #71. Take your pick, folks. There are also a number of top pharmaceutical companies on the F-100.)" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does "two or three announcements" mean that revenue producing contracts have been drawn up with one or more fortune 100 companies?  Or does this mean that the companies are simply just considering using ElectriPlast for their products? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, thanks for your time PK. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi there EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, what was presented was a compilation of reports from those who attended or who heard first-hand from one who was present at this opportune get-together.  The task before us was to suss out what was actually said versus what was heard. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am hopeful that we did a fair job, but because no-one recorded the event and we are relying on memories.  There is a margin for error.  Still, we put forth the consistent observations given.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the EB notes referenced -- at this point, there is no definitive available, and Integral's IR will go to lengths to dissuade my digging further due to the potential chance that I could expose negotiations in progress and possibly cause damage towards that end.  What was offered was a logical leap, identifying the regional F100 companies, and narrowing the list down to those who would best benefit from an association with ElectriPlast/Plastenna materials in their present and short term future product lines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A number of reports noted that the companies involved were readily recognized names -- we took an educated guess with the list we offered, but there are others out there who would also fit the bill.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for your question - there is a complication in the answer.  While it is true, Integral is looking to license use of product, there is a new twist in their approach towards making money which could give them and even better leverage over their IP material, and (us as shareholders) more access and control to the revenues generated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although not yet mentioned on the Blog (basically because I do not yet have enough to validate it as a--or rather the--game plan), rather than merely dealing with F100 / F500 companies, BR may be approaching and making deals with Plastic producers and manufactures.  In this way, they can control the price, the royalty, and marry up Plastic manufactures with product producers.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think in terms of Don King.  He never fights, but he never leaves the table with empty pockets either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If this is the game plan Integral's management is working to generate, then--using a boxing theme--not only will they own the talent; they will have a piece of the media-rights and the pay-per-view after event purse to boot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this was helpful,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116402385553761124?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116402385553761124/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116402385553761124' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116402385553761124'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116402385553761124'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-17-june-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 17 June 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116402318318104361</id><published>2006-11-20T03:39:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T02:27:37.090-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 16 June 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reaching out to ITKG Investors -- and Them Reaching Back...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16 June 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just wanted to drop you a short note and thank you for your Blog.  I first heard about ITKG when a colleague of mine was completing his Masters at the University of Michigan.  A project he was working on brought ITKG to his attention.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I read the letter to the shareholders in January, I jumped in this again @ .42 cents.  I've added a couple times since on dips.  The investment club I belong to has taken a good position and several others in the group have also.  The product and the potential of this product are "mind boggling".   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks again, and we appreciate your information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi there EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm glad to be of help to you and your investment circle.

In fact I have 30+ thousand in ITKG shares and all the info I can find is off this Blog (Thanks !!)  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I would be very appreciative to be included in this information as I am not a wealthy person, but one that sees a great investment opportunity and jumped aboard....hook line and sinker !!  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Sincerely,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Welcome on board, and congratulations on your investment choice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for words on the company, there are a few other resources to touch, some manipulative and touting, others useful in their own aspect.  There is a gentleman named Tobin Smith who runs a newsletter, he has featured Integral on that medium for the past 3 months.  He is a stock analyst, good with charts and has contacts to brokers and finance people--all of whom give him the added insight needed to make the calls he feels comfortable making.  The same calls/advice that some people are willing to spend big money, heed and follow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me, I am in this because I sense the potential surrounding the product, and have watched the company's management stumble, learn, and grow from the experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have invested at a decent time--during the summer doldrums where the activity may appear to wane, but in fact, behind the scenes action may prove that things will heat up and burst at the seams.  This meeting referenced is one aspect of that heating trend.  News flow may dry up over the next few weeks as vacations kick in, and decision makers put issues of import on the backburner, but that will not hinder events already initiated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More will be detailed in coming Blog inserts--I need to fact check some issues and touch base with some willing to share their knowledge on the little known facts taking place in the background.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More than you expected to get -- sorry about that, I was in the middle of a Blog article and some of that bled-over.  Suffice it to note, you are in good company.  The price per share may have dropped over recent weeks.  That could be due to any number of reasons, but the reality is a good foundation is present.  The supply chain issues have been resolved, and those companies who are looking to use  and sell the ElectriPlast / Plastenna material are working to become first on the market with their moldable products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another information source you might touch base with is the company's IR.  Look at the website for that number.  Though they will be tight lipped in what they release, they will offer niggles of insight which can help to further support your decision to invest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, I and a few others will continue to keep the Blog relevant, but on that front, you can possibly help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am working in a fishbowl--being here in Bavaria, and watching this company grow over time.  My view is not that of a new investor and the things I might take for granted are of dire concern to someone of that ilk.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you could remind me at times to keep the volume simple, or better yet, offer a recommendation or two for an area of interest that you would like to see further developed, please do so...  If you would like to assist in the effort of sharing enlightenment to other shareholders, by all means, draft up a story or an outline and we'll go from there...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'nuf said, it was great hearing from you -- if you have a need for anything, please feel free to shout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116396145381525370?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116396145381525370/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116396145381525370' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116396145381525370'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116396145381525370'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-13-14-june-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 13-14 June 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116396055663284637</id><published>2006-11-19T10:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T02:23:34.826-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 30-31 May 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Integral and the Word-on-the-Street...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;30-31 May 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I called Integral last week.  I talked with Scott.  We have developed a very friendly relationship.  I like Scott.  He plays by the rules and is very careful in what he says.  However, in talking, I have a strong feeling that something big is about to happen.  Scott did tell me that Bill has come back from a "very successful trip out East."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am really tired of reviewing the message board on Raging Bull and reading the "bashers" comments.  Sometimes, these guys can get into your head.  Comments like " if the plastic is as good as Integral states, then why haven't they signed more deals'?  Being in marketing and working with product development, they do not understand just how long it takes to bring a product from the development cycle to the beginning phase of production.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you heard of anything going down soon?  If so, what areas?  RFID, IPOD's, antennas, LED?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep in touch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi again EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The strong feeling you have is a result of something you touched upon.  It is not about merely marketing a gizmo.  That is a large part, but more rests with something you may have heard me touch upon in one of my missives, or in response to a comment on the Blog:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;SUPPLY-CHAIN...&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the past two years, Bill Robinson (BR) and his team have been in search of a firm, trusted, and potentially long term supplier for/of their ElectriPlast raw materials.  From Europe, to Asia.  From GE, to DuPont.  From local area suppliers, to large East &amp; West coast manufactures.  BR has traveled far an wide in search of a perfect fit for his future supply chain...  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of past experiences (I may have mentioned to you in the past), there is a real fear that their IP process might be stolen, to curb that potential, they have trademarked and patented both the process, the innovations, and the prospective spin-offs (this initiative will continue until Integral &amp; ElectriPlast become like the untouchable Intel, in that, anything with a chip that is considered leading-edge quality is readily, and unquestionably associated with Intel).  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From what I understand, Tom Aisenbrey has developed a multi-step process to create his unique plastic pellets.  Rather than give the full process to one company and trust them to push ahead and be obligated to a contract with Integral--Integral is divvying up the processes among those manufacturing agents who are considered trusted.  Still, the problem is that once this product makes its way to the streets, they (Integral) will have a desperate need to deliver product (massive amounts of product) to those companies pushing forward with their own ElectriPlast marketplace coups.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The companies that BR has met with over the past year have seen the potential, and as a result, some have reneged on their initial agreements wanting a larger cut of the potential profit to be gleaned.  BR, who has scraped by with this company, at one time working without pay, and another by placing his home in hock to keep it afloat, is not one to be pressured by such an attitude or such tactics.  He has more than once walked away rather than become embroiled with such companies...  If you remember the lawsuit that occurred with IAS a number of years ago, you will see where this line is leading...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyhow, word is that BR has--with QuanStar and other's connection--been put in contact with another trusted agent manufacture, but in this instance, there is a difference at play.  What that difference is is presently unknown, but from what I have gleaned through a rumor mill, the stars are in alignment and associated parties are happy with the pairing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, this latter is based on historical relevance and rumor.  Rumor has it that BR will take another trip next week somewhere to a manufacture in the states, but this time he will be accompanied by others of influence. . .  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What it really means is speculative at best, and remember, it is Scott's job to sell the company, just like the White House Press Secretary's job is to sell a story.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Positive things will occur with this company--Integral, with their ElectriPlast IP, has their duck-in-order and are poised to move as others have noted... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, remember--especially during your conversations with Scott.  The key to the moment centers on the Supply Chain.  Do they have the product manufactures on hand to provide the necessary material to meet a strong demand?  If so, who?  If not, when?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope that was of help, and best to you,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116396055663284637?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116396055663284637/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116396055663284637' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116396055663284637'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116396055663284637'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-30-31-may-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 30-31 May 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395999585566870</id><published>2006-11-19T10:04:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T02:18:04.616-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 20-23 May 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Look at Cash-Flow and Debt Questions...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20-23 May 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stumbled across this company by accident, and have bought a few shares.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looks very interesting, but they are a little short of cash, and it looks like they are quite a ways away from positive cash flow.  Do you think they can survive this period without taking on significant debt, or without substantial dilution?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you ever seen any predictions for revenue for 2007 and beyond?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader ~ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the positive side, you stumbled in with good company. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congratulations on joining the shareholder team, though many here have their own interests at stake--for the moment, we are each focused on one singular target . . . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'the success surrounding ElectriPlast and Plastenna, and the eventual price per share.&lt;/strong&gt;'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for your question regarding predictions on revenue, some who have posted here, or emailed me privately, have spoken often about a Mr. Tolbin Smith's interest in this company, and praise his ability to forecast/pick stock plays and the details associated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, I am not that caliber of an investor. I research companies, their products, the potential impacts, and the trends and histories of the company management. All this is done in order to predict a logical path of probability for the company and its prospective future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this company, I have seen a gambit, but I have seen the management learn from former lessons and resolve not to make similar mistakes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing that gives me hope, actually two things, are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the solid stance on obtaining PATENTs on their IP despite some missed opportunities--which in many cases turned out not to be opportunities at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the potential impact surrounding the product at hand. Intel is huge today because of its one-time niche market. Now they are trying to expand in other areas--their WiMAX foray for instance is an example of their ability to adjust with an ever-changing marketplace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With over 100 patents and patents-pending, Integral and their ElectriPlast IP material, have a similar synergy, and the will to take whatever market(s) it exploits by storm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The debt question you pose is key and has caused a few some concern, especially during the recent proxy vote. If you are asking for my opinion, I can say that the company has the funding--without touching those added shares--to push their product to market. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In other words, Money Is Not A Concern. If you are asking whether or not they are frugal about their funds, or better, will this recent influx of cash go to the company management's heads? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again I would have to say NO.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What many do not understand is that the management and some of their employees (in the early days of this company) went to work without pay, no yearly bonus, no nothing. Home loans were used to support the company; some employees were paid only in stock for a time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even today, were you to visit the company in Bellingham, you would find their offices sparse--no frills, no outlandish expense accounts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would describe their money management as learned and frugal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I say learned because they survived something that spelled doom for many other companies about 6 years ago. DEBT.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral had a Debt Agreement with a company called Schwartz. Although made in good faith, Integral at the time hit upon two stumbling blocks that most companies never bounce back from--a drastic turn in the stock market due to the Dot.Com bust, and a frivolous lawsuit initiated by IAS Communications. The lawsuit was bogus, but the fact that it tied-up Integral's resources, and held up their planned marketing campaign to an emerging WiFi market hit hard, and many investors were scared away by the onslaught of this double whammy. Triple if you count on the fact that the loan with Schwarz had already been initiated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Learning from their various lessons, Integral came back and resolved not to fall prey to any of the issues which almost lambasted the company--hence the PATENTS; hence their association with Preston, Ellis &amp; Gates; hence their association with QuanStar and a number of financial firms and advisors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sorry for the history lesson and numerous spelling errors, but to be honest, funding is not a problem--and if what some of those who report what Mr. Smith notes is true. . . Well suffice it to say, debt not even a distant worry. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395999585566870?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395999585566870/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395999585566870' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395999585566870'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395999585566870'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-20-23-may-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 20-23 May 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395934432726106</id><published>2006-11-19T09:57:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-19T10:02:24.330-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 20 May 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The ChangeWave Influence, and some Practical Advice...

They said that the price run-up was due to the huge amount of tech speculation in that time frame.  There really weren't a sufficient amount of products or patent approvals to support the price.  According to them, the current price increase is much more justified due to the patent approvals, the end of litigation with another company and current talks with large companies about integration of the ElectriPlast concept.  Today was a good day in the market.  Maybe tomorrow, it's going past the $3.00 range.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi there EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That from Integral regarding the patent approvals is correct, and they were also--at the time of the run-up, still working on a tenuous relationship with their picked manufacture (who if things blew up as many shareholders had hoped, could have hand more control over their products supply-chain flow than Integral would have truly liked.  The real reason for the rapid rise, and equally rapid fall was due to the patent approval issue though.  As mentioned in one of my earlier Blog missives, a former partner of Integral, a company called IAS Communications--upon realizing Integral's pending success, threatened Integral for a cut of the money or they would bring trouble to the table. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral's management, knowing they were in the right, told them to get lost.  IAS as a result claimed that Integral stole the designs during their earlier association and brought a lawsuit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral was working to patent their products but too short cuts in an attempt to get to market first.  This weak point was exploited by IAS.  The court case scared off many investors, causing the price per share to plummet so rapidly.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was a time for learning lessons for Integral's management and one of the primary reasons that it has taken so long for the company to move on their ElectriPlast/Plastenna innovations.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their first and foremost concern is to not experience the IAS-fiasco again, second, they do not want to be in a position to have their property stolen, so they are taking their IP and any imaginable incarnation from this or similar technology to the patent office and locking their claim on it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the $3, it'll happen, sooner or later.  It will pass as $4 and $5 comes into view.  An email came in recently wherein it noted that Mr. Smith in his newsletter  said that his estimation is that the value of this stock could rise x10.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is in the business of gauging such things, and maybe has insights that are not available to the rest of us.  Despite that, it will come down to who is in the background now doing business plans with Integral's management before we see such rises.  It could happen--it depends on the names of those aligning their interests with that of Integral and their ElectriPlast product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once again, this is a time will tell issue...  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best to you,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395934432726106?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395934432726106/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395934432726106' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395934432726106'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395934432726106'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-20-may-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 20 May 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395890826521507</id><published>2006-11-19T09:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T01:45:03.423-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 16 May 2006 -- Supplemental</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The ChangeWave Influence, and some Practical Advice...

($395 per fiscal quarter!)  That adds up to close to $1200 per year.  Of course, if he helped me nail a definite ten bagger, then yes, it would be worth it.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of the information that I can find on ElectriPlast after a Google search and a yahoo search are promising news and further patent approvals.  It's very impressive.  I also noticed that there doesn't seem to be anyone out there bashing the stock.  Usually there are one or two people out there providing a downside to all of a stock's upsides.  I went ahead and started a small position with the small amount of funds I have available and will have to wait to add more after payday.  I'll try and give investor relations a call tomorrow. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I'm really curious about is this: how are the negotiations going with the major companies?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which companies are going to try and incorporate ElectriPlast's technology?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can ElectriPlast really pull this off with only 6 employees?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It appears that this company is working very hard to protect its intellectual property (IP).  I gather that royalties will be the main source of revenue if the IP becomes mainstream.  I'd imagine that investor relations wouldn't comment on any of this, so it makes it a difficult decision to make.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I can always pay more money for the ChangeWave Investing service and find out right?  I just wonder if Mr. Smith really has the inside scoop on this like he says he does.  The internet is full of liars and thieves and I've been burned more than once.  However, Mr. Smith does appear to be on the more respectable side.  I'd imagine if he was simply just a thief, then he would never have gotten his show on Fox Television. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks again for your time sir.  Your speedy response is most appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish I could tell you something more insightful on Mr. Smith and his knowledge, connections, or intentions.  Unfortunately, I had never heard of him until a fellow ElectriPlast Blog Reader, such as yourself, pushed his article my direction (which I posted and then later got permission for).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for your becoming a shareholder, congratulations.  I would not be going through the effort and time if I had no faith that there was a chance that something good could become of this product, and that the company was working to build a solid foundation to support it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You mentioned uncovering information on the companies in talks with Integral and the status of those discussions.  That--unless you are part of the inner circle, or have a cousin working at Integral--is a difficult nut to crack.  Then again, if you could, that would be the next thing to insider trading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the trip-wires I set for myself before I began this Blog with to watch for large volume on the daily stock.  That could indicate one of three things.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1.&lt;/strong&gt;  That the stock was being pushed in a pump or dump scenario, then you would see a short flash of brilliance, and a quick fade as the price per share (pps) plummeted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2.&lt;/strong&gt;  That there were companies on the verge of conducting a business negotiation with Integral, and the employees inside that company (along with their family and friends) were intent on buying into the good thing they sensed occurring on the horizon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3.&lt;/strong&gt;  That the product technology actually made sense to a host of other independent thinkers who saw the potential, the patent, and the possibilities associated in a clear manner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where we are is unknown at the moment because there is more information out there on the product and the various potentials associated -- but, I think this may have something beyond sudden enlightenment...   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Time will tell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best to you, actually both of us, in this...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395890826521507?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395890826521507/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395890826521507' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395890826521507'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395890826521507'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-16-may-2006_19.html' title='Reader Interaction - 16 May 2006 -- Supplemental'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395829587868046</id><published>2006-11-19T09:36:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T01:31:02.356-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 16 May 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The ChangeWave Influence, and some Pratical Advice...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16 May 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello Sir:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I recently received an email advertising Integral Technologies from Tobin Smith. He's the head of Changewave Investing at Changewave.com. (ITKG.OB) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He is predicting this thing is going to be huge. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What kind of timeline would you predict for this stock to take off? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm seriously thinking about getting in on it, but I need to make sure that its not a pump and dump scheme, as many stocks selling at this price are. If this is 100% legit, then I'll put some serious money in it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mr. Smith advertised that Bill Gates's father is a lawyer who helped this company get its work patented and took payment for his services in the form of company shares. If this is also true, then this is also a good sign. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have two more weeks till I get paid again and then I will have money to be able to put some money into the market. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd like to be able to talk more in depth about this company since you appear to be pretty knowledgeable about it.  You can reach me at XXXXXXXXX@yahoo.com. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any additional insight you could provide me with about this groundbreaking company would be appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sincerely,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can only relay my experience with Integral and the potentials I foresee with their emerging ElectriPlast and Plastenna technologies.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for what Mr Smith relays, I am no a subscriber to his newsletter, but I have had others such as yourself relay his words which echo my own, but with the difference that he is more familiar and experienced in and with forecasting stock growth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To that point, I can only note that with all stocks, there are risks associated and the best offense against those risks is due diligence (research).  In that sense, I--with my ElectriPlast Blog--am trying to provide that added rest of the story background to the potential I believe present.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know this does not help you in making the financial leap, and it is not meant to.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This stock, because of the foundation (patents, confidential negotiations, NDA's, funding and most recently the authorization to increase the stock availability) the company managers have laid over the past few years-weeks, could mature 10-fold or more.  Still, there remains a risk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I urge you to review the Blog that I have established, or better still, contact the company and attempt to glean more insight...and if you have access to Mr. Smith's publication, review that too.  Because of his brokerage experiences, he has accesses that I do not, and more than likely has his finger on the pulse of timing for events to occur.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's like those old math problems you had in school.  Mr. Smith can easily give you an answer, I can show you how the work was accomplished...  Who's to say which method of getting to the conclusion is more right.  At the very least you have sources of information available, allowing you to do the work for yourself...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The following is something that was relayed to me just yesterday, it should offer comfort that there is something more to this company and its product than a mere pump &amp; dump scheme...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.polymer-age.co.uk/back_issues/mar06/engmats.pdf&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers from sunny Bavaria, and best to you and yours,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395829587868046?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395829587868046/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395829587868046' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395829587868046'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395829587868046'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-16-may-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 16 May 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395725811970718</id><published>2006-11-19T09:13:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T01:25:48.000-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 21 Mar 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Breaking Down the Pluses of the Heatron Licensing Agreement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;21 Mar 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I noticed that an announcement was made by ITKG.  They will be licensing &lt;br /&gt;their ElectriPlast technology to the "heating and LED industry". &lt;br /&gt;How big is this market?  What are some product examples put into laymen's &lt;br /&gt;terms for the average guy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The following is not analysis but speculation (big difference all the way around). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In looking at the end of your email address, I think that you can -- within your own field of interest -- sense possibilities, if not in the realm of impact for an ElectriPlast heater (not that this would be Heatron's only focus), and then definitely with the LED light market mentioned in the press release.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think on it this way, LEDs have been energy savers.  With the coming of brighter/longer lasting LED technology, though it will not replace the headlights on a car, it could replace all other bulbs therein.  Parking, backing, brakes, overhead dome, vanity mirror lights each could be replaced--and would be less taxing on the battery. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the home, everything from night lights to stairwell/stair lights could be incorporated, and cheaply.  This is a realm where the technology has room to grow -- what next, maybe outdoor billboard signs lit by LED.  That last was a joke, but the truth is LED technology is emerging with alternatives producing brighter lights which use less and less wattage. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the heating technology, I have read up on their heating pad. This thing, at the time, was said to use considerably less electricity than any conventional product, and was not flammable.  The uses were--??  Here my memory goes grey because it was a long time ago when I saw the article, and my interest was not focused on that aspect.  Still, the gist noted that the energy consumption was greatly reduced.  The uses are anyone's guess at this time--here in Germany, they sometimes place a network of heating strips under the floors, which in-turn (because heat rises) heats the house. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However the plan to work either the LED or Heating prospect -- apparently someone is interested in exploring them...

You have given me new insight to weigh in my decisions.  My take of the raising the outstanding shares is that I believe Bill Robinson and William Ince may very well have to get into the initial production of their product to make this go.  Therefore, a joint venture may have to occur with a plastics manufacturer.  To do this, they will have to raise capital.  Thus, the reason for the increase in shares filing.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My concern is that there is some hidden reason why it is taking so long to sign on contracts with various industries.  It could be coming to a standstill over royalty percentages between parties.  The product has tested very well.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The other issue is reluctance of some companies changing their supplier from GE and DuPont to an unknown supplier in China or oversees.  GE and DuPont could be applying &lt;br /&gt;a large amount of pressure on their customers not to proceed with ITKG's product.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Promises of something similar on the horizon?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, all of these comments are speculation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am very proud of Integral's code of Ethics being published on the internet.  Your past information tells me a lot about the integrity of management wanting to do things the right way.  I am a little surprised that Integral has not updated the shareholders on how ongoing negotiations are going.  Bill Robinson pretty well laid it on the line with his January 6th release.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are considerable expectations on ITKG bringing their company out of the development stage to a company that will start producing revenues.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My strength is in the marketing and business area.  I see that ITKG has all of the ingredients to succeed. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may well be right in regards to the reasons behind the raising of outstanding shares.  I know that they tried to use both GE and DuPont at plastic producers in the past, but this was during their mentorship phase -- at that time, those two companies dragged their feet on supplying materials--much to Integral's irritation and disgust. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Integral then attempted to coordinate this effort with polymer producers elsewhere in the states, and here in Europe.  Bayer was one of the companies contacted.  They then reached out towards China, and made contact(s) with polymer manufactures/producers there. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The status of those coordination's are unknown, but rumor during those forays was that they were happy to have either a back-up or primary in place -- then they began anew in discussions with GE and DuPont. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like I said before, facts and speculation are mixed up with this -- I am merely an outsider looking in, and the windows I have to peer through are shrouded.  All the same, I doubt that Integral is going to get involved in the manufacturing process--aside from supply chain concerns. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Plastic producers know their job, and Integral will trust them to do just that---if they cannot handle that, then maybe all this earlier coordination was done to give Integral a ready alternative to accommodate a squeeze play by any one specific producer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the increase of outstanding shares, I still have a question mark on that one, but if it is--as you note--related to the question of material manufacturing, at the very least, it shows that their focus is in the right place... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395577142786366?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395577142786366/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395577142786366' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395577142786366'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395577142786366'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-16-17-mar-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 16-17 Mar 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395410987918289</id><published>2006-11-19T08:28:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T01:19:53.113-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 15 Mar 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question on the 150 Million Proxy Initiative&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15 Mar 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks PK.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was DuPont successful? I noticed ITKG latest filing will increase the number of outstanding shares to 150 million.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anytime EB Reader, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Below is a mix of speculation &amp; insight -- even so, I urge you to contact the company for specifics... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Was DuPont successful&lt;/strong&gt; -- No, and even if they were their patent submission would cross directly against Integral's.  Think on it this way--the company has almost a hundred (probably more) provisional patents.  Not only for product potentials, but also covering both a broad, and specific formulation of the various mixtures used with the various mediums (polymers, silicon based materials, etc.) used to make the compound work so effectively on such a grand spectrum. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DuPont came close, but what they came up with and attempted to patent were mere shadows of what the Plastenna / ElectriPlast mix was capable of (at least that is the rumor, and probably the reason behind why DuPont with their large labs and access to markets has not come out with their doppelgangers in an attempt to steal the market before it becomes a market. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't worry, Integral's legal team, Preston, Gates &amp; Ellis, are ensuring that doesn't occur--or if it could, they are present to make DuPont pay through the nose for their attempted IP theft.  Besides, if shareholders could find the paper trail on this, then figure anyone could.  That case would be lost before it got to court. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the increase in the number of outstanding shares to 150 million, strange timing that, huh?&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;I'll be honest.  I don't know what the story is there.  It could be needed for leverage, in case the stock does take off.  It would prevent an outside party from purchasing vast sums of shares for a song, and at the end of the day walking away with the company under their thumb.  It could also be out there for other yet to be said reasons. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is hard to judge, but I trust that a plan is in play and am hopeful that shareholder and not solely management interests are at hand.  As a matter of fact, take that "hope" thing back.  They are holding a shareholder meeting to vote on this specific matter.  To those who attend, I would think the reasons will be spelled out.  The banks will be on board, and they are the ones interested in making a profit on their investment of time and money. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On this, as long as there is a question mark associated with the reason -- you'll have to look to a gut check to sort out whether you think the cause/effect is oriented in a positive, or negative fashion... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tell me what your thoughts are?   I am working from a fishbowl on this question, and though I don't think malice is behind the cause, at this time, I simply and truly don't know the answer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK sends...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395410987918289?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395410987918289/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395410987918289' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395410987918289'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395410987918289'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-15-mar-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 15 Mar 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-116395136404068681</id><published>2006-11-19T07:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-11-24T01:11:32.646-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 14 Mar 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q%26A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Opening of the ElectriPlast Blog Email -- Background&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14 Mar 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I appreciate your insight on ITKG. I have a nice business acquaintance that referred me to ITKG. I feel very fortunate to buy into this company at an average of 55 cents. With 30,300 shares, I want to make sure that this stock continues to do well. I am not a wealthy person. However, like you, I enjoy researching cutting edge companies that truly have the vision and technology to make a difference.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My hope is that this will be another AOL, Microsoft, Intel etc... I am 42 years old. My goal is to retire at around 55.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would like to thank you on putting together a nice "Blog." I am the anonymous comment that posted on your page. I am a little nervous about the lack of "news" coming out since William Robinson's very strong statements that was announced January 6th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your remark on how the company was burned once makes sense. I guess you are referring to the lawsuit that occurred about 4 to 5 years ago involving antenna patents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think it is very important that the company begin generating sales over the next two to three months. I did hear a comment from my friend that their will be some break throughs with car manufacturers. I do not know if this is true or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If your have any other areas on the web that I can stay on top of ITKG and their technology, please let me know. Feel free to contact me any time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EB-Reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congratulations on your early investment -- I sincerely hope that what you see now pales in comparison to what I hope and expect to occur in the future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the company being burned before and learning their lessons as a result, I guess you could say that the lawsuit was their first eye-opener. Since then, they have hired a strong legal team to protect their backsides, and a few years back, went through the process of resolving all other prospective legal issues which could have hindered their progress at a later time (now actually). You can read more about those settlements in company's past filings. To that end, they are now captains of their own destiny.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I was actually thinking when I wrote on being burned &amp;amp; lessons learned was on Integral's thought of getting product to market quickly by going through a larger cooperation such as GE or DuPont. GE, saw that Integral's IP product had vast potential, but they also saw--or rather heard, through the placement of former GE-employee-turned-spy Ravi (you may read about him on message boards or in the press)--that Integral Technologies had an urgent need financial support. What GE intended to do was to keep the promise of a prize dangling in front of Integral's management while their cash-flow dwindled, with the hope of eventually acquiring the company, their IP, and most importantly their patents for a song.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ravi's play was exposed, and Integral sought support from DuPont, and in the meantime garnered financial support from Wells Fargo and some private placements.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DuPont was far more devious. Their intent was to bring Tom Aisenbrey to their labs to further develop and explore the potential of ElectriPlast / Plastenna -- meanwhile they would take notes and try to create their own patents on the discoveries. Tom never worked in their labs, so they ended up trying to reverse-engineer the materials Integral let them have, and patent that information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think it was shareholders doing DD on both companies uncovered that scheme. As a result, that relationship swiftly came to an end.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now--purely speculation on my part--rather than rely on one big company to use as a stepping stone towards the market place, I think Integral intends to use many. And as their product and name becomes more widely recognized, they intend to monopolize on that -- probably just like Microsoft once did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hopefully that will all come to pass, and your .55 cent investment will become one of the better choices you make in this life...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers and best,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/37690144-116395136404068681?l=readers-qna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/feeds/116395136404068681/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=37690144&amp;postID=116395136404068681' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395136404068681'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/37690144/posts/default/116395136404068681'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://readers-qna.blogspot.com/2006/11/reader-interaction-14-mar-2006.html' title='Reader Interaction - 14 Mar 2006'/><author><name>PK...</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/12501644784976676140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/IP.0.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37690144.post-7731128718176197583</id><published>2006-10-12T16:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-12-28T05:42:41.949-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Reader Interaction - 11-12 Oct 2006</title><content type='html'>&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/1600/Q&amp;A-a.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7121/2116/400/Q%26A-a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Closer than Ever Before...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11-12 October 2006&lt;br /&gt;EB Reader &amp; PK Correspondence&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PK,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is another fantastic contribution by your "editor."
