In fact, we could use a white knight (or a crazy old coot for that matter, as long as he’s accredited :)) to drop a few hundred thousand bucks on us.

Fortunately for LPP, our investors are a pretty intelligent and fore-thinking lot, and have seen this project as a good bet. I just wish a few more people like that would come out of the woodwork right about now.

I doubt you mean a “white knight” in the strict sense (see above) who buys control (“friendly takeover”). AFAIK, Eric is not prepared to cede control — very wisely, IMO, since what has once been bought, by however friendly a buyer, can be resold to anyone at will.

I would hope either that your existing investors can dig deeper, or that they know like-minded friends! Or perhaps Paul Allen, who has dropped some of those millions on TriAlpha, would like to hedge his bet?

I speculate that, per a previous comment of yours, that the potential “newsworthy” developments using pB11 fuel by the end of September may heighten the appeal and prospects of LPP and the project sufficiently to attract some of that “finishing kick” funding.
