Name Change So we have a name change and still no other news of when they are going to put this share out of it's misery. What is the point of that?

Interesting buying... ...over the last few days (see volumes on chart). Can't imagine why, unless there's a legal challenge to the sale being considered.

So glad I cut my losses and sold these a while ago on the last spike to 12ish. Still lost a packet though...bought at 50pThe board were a bunch of incompetent boffs, they squandered money like it was water. As usual shareholders get nowt and the products will probably do very nicely once taken private.Shame on you IEH board.

Link up with GM then URGENTLY..... Detroit Rolls Ahead On Electric Vehicles -- WSJ03/10/2017 8
2amDow Jones NewsGM (NYSE:GM)Intraday Stock ChartToday : Tuesday 3 October 2017Click Here for more GM Charts.Mike Colias This article is being republished as part of our daily reproduction of WSJ.com articles that also appeared in the U.S. print edition of The Wall Street Journal (October 3, 2017).Detroit's largest auto makers ramped up plans for electric vehicles in coming years, the latest push from traditional car companies to respond to tougher emissions regulations and the prospect that some markets across the globe could eventually ban internal combustion engines powered with fossil fuels.General Motors Co. plans to introduce two more electric vehicles in the U.S. over the next 18 months and 20 globally within six years, the nation's largest auto maker by sales said Monday. At the same time, crosstown rival Ford Motor Co. said it had formed a new team to help direct investments toward new electrified vehicles expected in the next several years. The Detroit-based group, called "Team Edison," will explore partnerships with suppliers and other companies, the auto maker said.The auto makers are investing billions of dollars in electric vehicles despite challenges turning a profit on them due to expensive technology costs that increase vehicle prices, and tepid consumer demand. GM and Ford are currently minting profits in the U.S. with fuel-thirsty pickup trucks and sport-utility vehicles that consumers find enticing amid low gasoline prices.Electric vehicles account for less than 1% of U.S. sales, and a sliver of the nearly 90 million sold around the world. Infrastructure challenges remain, with additional charging stations needed to keep vehicles powered and avoid stranded motorists. Investors have bid up shares of Tesla Inc., pressuring traditional car companies, but the Silicon Valley electric-car maker consistently loses money.Still, countries including China, the U.K., France and India have signaled plans to ban sales of vehicles powered with gasoline or diesel fuels in the coming decades. The head of California's Air Resources Board recently suggested the state could follow suit. That is on top of burgeoning negotiations among California, Trump administration officials and car executives over potentially relaxing tough future emissions standards that require companies to sell vehicles getting better mileage.The upshot is car executives, even while highlighting challenges with market demand and lobbying for regulatory changes, are increasingly sounding bullish on electric cars and, in some instances, echoing statements from government officials."General Motors believes the future is all-electric," said Mark Reuss, GM's product-development chief, at the auto maker's suburban Detroit design center. He said GM's future electric vehicles would be profitable without further explanation.GM's lineup will continue to offer hybrids and traditional vehicles reliant on gasoline and diesel fuels during what the company expects to be a prolonged transition to those predominantly running on batteries, Mr. Reuss said.GM said it would use the underpinnings of the Chevrolet Bolt electric car currently on sale for coming vehicles in the U.S., though declined to discuss further details of their makeup. The auto maker also said it has developed a next-generation battery system that will allow for greater flexibility in electric-vehicle sizes and body styles in coming years.GM said it would do more to expand the availability of charging stations to help spur consumer demand for electric vehicles, but didn't peg an investment amount or disclose specific plans. Volkswagen AG, stung by an emissions-cheating scandal, has begun investing in charging stations around the U.S. and expects to offer 50 electric vehicles by 2025. Tesla already has thousands of charging stations in its home country and elsewhere.The mark

Re: Why so much buying today ?.... Day traders bouncing the SP around; they usually get to have a little play before companies finally fold. Writing's on the wall here, I'm afraid. It's been there for some time, actually. I really can't see what's going to happen to save this Co from going under; for what they're worth now, the Patents will fall into the hands of the CLN owners and that will be that. Sad, really. So much promise ... undelivered by a bunch of scientists blithely unaware of the how commerce (i.e. the real world, away from the work benches) works - seen it time and again.

2 X RNS This is something that has been apparent here for a long while. We could have told that ages ago, and i do believe we did on here.The same is true for all in the alternative energy market it seems.....AFC, Redt, IEH, IPO generally......The solution has always been that big link up deals need to have been done urgently at outset,ie, with the likes of BP, Shell, Motor companies etcITM seems to have made the grade by going this route, as does Velocys now, and obviously Tesla always had plenty of capital.SAGE

Re: New Scientist re Alu alloy ....I dunno, but.....got a hunch that graphene could also be brought into play here,.....as the Aluminium Gallium is structured to work like this at the nanotech level,.....a sheet of graphene, in a spiral roll, could have this on it to facilitate a mega efficiency battery.It may be that these coils could be replaced and hence makes for recharge-ability.....(This is a concept for researching ----not a firm possibility of course )SAGE

Re: New Scientist re Alu alloy Have loved the new scientist for 40 years..and in the past it has introduced me to some ideas that made good investment ideas. Typically however the content is at research stage and many years from having any impact or being at a stage where we can invest in the company or the ideas consequences. Good to know what is coming but little impact on current decisions and always subject to how well research leads to real world solutions. Where we are with fuel cells, hydrogen, batteries etc has taken years if not decades to reach the current position - we are at a point where the world is tipping away from oil/gas - by the time this is normal there will be numerous options for generating hydrogen and storing power and not all of those will make valid investment choices.

Re: New Scientist re Alu alloy Sage.Great find.Thought my Lithium holding was in for a battering, but then realised that the aluminium version is non-rechargeable (as far as I can tell).Any thoughts anyone?Bertie.

New Scientist re Alu alloy ..This weeks New Scientist magazine ......“Just add water to get it to go. Dousing a novel alloy of aluminium with water could offer a portable source of hydrogen for fuel cells, potentially transforming the energy market and providing an alternative to batteries and liquid fuels. It might even revive the struggling hydrogen economy.Earlier this year, Scott Grendahl and his team at the US Army Research Laboratory at Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland made a surprising discovery. They were testing a high strength aluminium alloy by pouring water on it, and it started to bubble, giving off hydrogen. That doesnt normally happen to Aluminium.The new material offers at least an order of magnitude (10 x) more energy than lithium batteries of the same weight. And unlike batteries it can stay stable and ready for use indefinitely.It lets you make very compact systems, but can be scaled up.”New scientist. 12 Aug 2017SAGE
