News showing on Reuters out of Orlando about Stanelco and France's announcement.

Stanelco's starch-based packaging approved in EU

By Ahmed ElAmin
14/10/2005 - The use of polylactic acid (PLA), a natural, biodegradable food packaging alternative, took another step forward this week, as UK-based Stanelco said its application has been approved for use throughout the EU and the US.

Many analysts believe that biodegradable packaging has a bright future. Growing environmental awareness and consumer power coupled with the inexorable rise in pre-packaged disposable meals means that food manufacturers and packagers are increasingly being targeted to improve their environmental performances

Hi. I'm an bprg investor but have a couple of questions of mutual interest. before people say anything, i don't subcribe to or agree with the petty rivalry between the two companies (as a couple of seo investors who ventured on the bprg thread can probably confirm).

anyway, i would like both companies to make success of their respective business. there is discussion of the court case (cc) on the bprg thread and i wondered whether it is discussed here. for me i think there is merit for both companies in a deal to resolve the case. for seo it would remove uncertainty, deal with a potential liability and would allow them to focus on there core activities including greenseal, frogpack, etc.

could people say what the view of ingel and the cardinal deal is? is anything happening? is it dead? is it on hold? does ingel really form part of seo's business now?

i am not trying to be antagonistic. bprg has had a major strategic review and the management are now focused on what is strategic important for revenue, growth and what is most important for the business. it seems to me that seo has huge potential in its technologies such as greenseal and that Ingel isn't now in the price and could be more of a diversion than an asset. is that you view or do you disagree? if seo and bprg settled the cc with the three patents going to bprg and ingel effectively closing but with reduced damages paid would this actually be a benefit to seo?

i have no reason to think that a deal can or will be done but i am very interested in the opinions of seo investors and also whether anybody talks to seo's management about these issues?

Gave what answer i could on ADVFN.

For what its worth, and from a business point of view, I am of the opinion that any court case is a gamble for both sides, and the longer it drags on and the more questionable the points of law and value of the patents become, the more likely it is that either or both parties will take a pragmatic view, and the whole thing will disappear without a trace, or be resolved amicably, with neither side losing too much and the lawyers booking more exotic holidays!!
Don't know if this is what you were referring to, but it is a tried and trusted method among businesses to start with litigation and end with mediation. Call it the equivalent of a trial of strength or a staring game, where no-one wants to blink but eventually become bored and their eyes start to hurt.
Not overly concerned about the legal wranglings.

Alan - best make sure you're not dumping Asda bags across the city!

With regard to next week, I'm not sure we are expecting concrete news. We may get a better idea on strategy and corporate responsibility going forward.

I only live 2 miles from Asda HQ. Now that place really does need recycling. What a dump!!!
Alan

I have always said that SEO should buy out bprg then that would be an end to it.

A quid per share and they can buy my shares!

Al's house just up the road from Asda HQ

May be a merge then, I wouldn't want to see you get too much out of it.

No, no. You've got hold of the artists impression, post refurbishment and modernisation!!
Alan

A perfect example of mugs rushing in to buy a "cheap" shre, back to sub 14p very soon

OBLOMOV WAS THE ONE WHO USED TO BCK pm UP TO THE HILT WHEN HIS RAMPS SUITED HIM

I believe Stanelco did in fact look at buying-out Bioprogress but were advised not to touch it with a barge-pole. I'm paraphrasing, but that was the gist.

Alan - I thought a true dead-cross was when both 50dma and 200dma were descending which clearly is not the case here. The 200dma continues inn nearly a straight upward trend line hardly flickering at the current little local difficulty.

T&G great report on very conservative basis. Howard White not concerned. Tom Bulford (know to cut losses quickly in my experience) still positive and still the whole Masterton Library to revisit to perk you up whenever feeling queasy about holding too many SEO shares.

I am happily back above break even at 14.47p average price and look forward to 144.7 within 5 years.

RIP PM, but who really had the time to read all that stuff. Although I never squelched him unlike the opposition who have no place on a BB.

Anyway, what would we have all talked about today without a couple of bannings to suck on? God forbid we should discuss SEO.

Love it SD. My apologies for misunderstanding the nature of a dead cross. Learning always learning. I too never squelched PM, or indeed anyone, as inside every ramper and basher is a kernel of truth, otherwise it would not be believable. The trick, as always, is to cut away the crap and find that little nugget. PM was right about the potentials, though he blew it all out of proportion, and ii is right that there are more promises than fulfillments. He does take the view that promises are made to be broken, not kept, and so far SEO have kept more than they have broken.
Still my most promising long termer, and still happy to hold, no matter what happens in the mean time.

The standard dead cross happened in July

the pice target is 18
this is because the graph will attempt to reach back to the 50MA

Thanks for that snip such an intellect.
