Hi Sula

Thanks for highlighting that part of the financial outs. It's intriguing that this NASA relationship goes back many years, but we're still yet to see any evidence of their endeavors. Apatrently we are very close to producing commercial product prototypes of detectors etc. I therefore find the below comment from the 2011 NR by Mr Pierhal interesting.

.""Commercial applications could be brought to bear when the device is completed for NASA," 

When the device is completed for NASA!! Does that mean something behind the scenes has been completed allowing POET to persue commercial products. Or is it simply that statement means zip and nothing ever came of this colaboration. Or perhaps that persuing commercial aplications wasn't intrisically related to the NASA work.

Who knows?? But its fair to say not everthing is as it seems, at least in my eyes it isn't.
