this will make a few oldtimers cry, page-2

Alecfra, as you know I was indeed wedded to the VRB future until it began failing chemically, increasing in in-efficiency and otherwise looking like "fools gold". Yet, IF, and the capitals are deliberate, IF the tech works then indeed there is a large market for it.

But your post made me wonder . . . . . . I wonder if it possible to add up how much "equity" has been raised by all the various VRB participants, here in Aussie, Japan, China, Canada, Austria, UK (yeah even UK at Southampton Uni did some work), Thailand etc etc and then compare it with how much shareholders have lost in share purchases and subsequent blow-ups?

No doubt CXY's former company PCE did much better adopting the UCG industry, and but for some "to be tested" illegalities by DeRM would now be "well ahead", just a shame that time has slipped quite so much. Oh well, I think the saying goes "good things come to those who wait" . . . . . here's one shareholder who's still waiting, although, to be fair, some of my trading hasn't done too bad over the years.
