And they forgot this was happening today? And they just remembered? In the biggest week EVER for their company? Sure I can see how that came about!

They never said they forgot, they just said that management was unavailable.

The more I look at this, the less inclined I am to believe it is an arg. Modern businessmen, especially at the level of upper upper management often fill multiple roles in multiple companies. So it isn't surprising to see several companies with common staff.

Additionally, I could see diversifying the company into a series of smaller companies, depending on the laws of a particular country, for financial reasons. Think of it this way: Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac, and Saturn are all General Motors. General Electric is in so many businesses they're practically considered to be their own mutual fund.

While their claims of infinite energy seem unlikely, I'd apply occam's razor and say that they probably just screwed up their math, rather than that this is an ARG.

Not that that would stop me from following along to see what they DID come up with, technology wise

True enough. I hope that enough "scientists" are found so that they can go on record with some of this information. I'm really interested in what would convince them they have something important enough to file a patent app. In the US, they run about $50,000.00 for something like this - and an IP attourney colleague of mine has said that internationally it could be even more expensive.

So wait, is the chat at seven PM eastern time, or AM?

Estit: Never mind, i figured it out. Looking at the site actually helps. Also, i'm glad they changed the chat all around, ohewise I'd have missed it.

[DrBunker]

I know the time wont show up "correctly" on here but the chat is in 25 minutes from now. I assume that means it's AM for you.

[Saevitia]

Here's a better question, where is the chat taking place? have they said? Are they launching an on-site applicatiion?

Becuase if its an AIM chat, I'm just gonna burst out laughing.

[DrBunker]

All they say at the moment is

[Saevitia]

Ahhh. Well, the forum just went down, so I'm guessing they're putting the cat up. Or possibly stalling for time.

[DrBunker]

Hmmm, it may be a temporary blip but the forums are down at the moment. And with only 9 minutes to go until the live chat...

Edit: my turn to be beaten to it. Looks like it's back up now though. I wonder if they can take the strain

Well, the chat was supposed to be up 4 minutes ago. I bet they are stalling.

[schummbo]

I've logged into the chat, but its just me, Sean, and the moderator. Where is everyone?

Bah, never mind. I guess they're here, i just cant see them.

Can anyone post a full transcript when its finished, it steorn doesnt?

BAH AGAIN! It says right above that they will. I quit.

[DrBunker]

They say they'll post the whole thing and I can't see why they wouldn't. So far the q's are very lame: which do you prefer; coke or pepsi.

So far

I'm glad that they delayed it. It's giving me a chance to participate instead of having it happen while I was getting my beauty sleep.
