it appears that the advanced polyurethane compound dated today + the weyland fingerprint (coming soon on the web site and also on the email) & david 8 video may be converging to something else down this path.
Of course, the tricky part about viral advertising is allowing people to discover it themselves. Just as Lindelof is finishing the previous thought, Scott pipes in: "There's another [ad] coming, selling a product of Weyland Corporation which is for all intents and purposes a human being, called David. We talk about the Weyland Corporation and we never mention the film at all. But at the end, he puts his finger on the screen –"
Lindelof interrupts: "Don't give it away!" So when will we see this full ad? "I don't know what the plan is," Lindelof says, shooting Scott a wide-eyed look. "I didn't even know we were allowed to talk about it." Scott grins: "Oh dear." <- end quote
so perhaps we are to expect either a continuation of the david video or another video coming up shortly.

Remember...It doesnt say US patent...
This could be anything since the patents are different in the UK (assuming Weyland is UK) than the US.

With these amateurs...?
Pah! I say just let them drip their 'clues' from their twitter feed and keep these boards clean from their awfully novice attempts at this.
I hope the film doesn't suffer from this type of ineptitude.
So what chemicals compose the perfect replica of human skin ?
I assume we have to find that out and apply it to the element table we have in the investor info.

From the Weyland Timeline:
Weyland Industries earns patent number 9,158,239 for a chemical composition of classified properties able to almost perfectly replicate the biological features and texture of human skin.

Not sure on anyone else, but I can't get past 2064 now on the timeline.

from @PrometheusMovie
"On this day in 2026, Weyland Industries earns patent 9,158,239 for an Advanced Polyurethane Compound. #PrometheusTrivia bit.ly/GMGsam"
If this date is important, maybe that's why they had to drop so many hints yesterday to get us to solve the passwords so that we could move onto this puzzle on the correct date?
Whilst looking on there (in IE as it seems to have stopped working on Chrome again) I noticed that loads of the entries seem to be repeated. Is this just a local glitch.
its the link from jan 1 2073 project prometheus under way
if you lcik on project prometheus half way through the paragraph it takes to the link - which is dead at the min
I think that's got to go down as a great spot then. It's not an admin fix so surely must mean something?
Just checked and the link has now been changed back to the original. Well that was fun.
So they're watching but still thought it was better to fix that. I guess that's a clear sign it's nothing to concern us but still, why change it in the first place?

Is it standard practice to measure a projects prgress in dollars? Are they suggesting they need to reach 10 trillion dollars before Prometheus can actually begin its mission? it makes no sesne to me.
It was discussed earlier in terms of whether it was to do with the number of people who signed up as potential investors. I'd agree it's an odd way of representing something which apparently they'd have no issue funding as it's clearly their raison d'ętre now.
