So where were your posts a few weeks ago saying this? Its amazing how many people were forecasting 9p since, erm, a few days ago. The real trick is to forecast it before it happens. And that is the point. We are unable to forecast when (and if) WM or McD place an order of substantial size. Nobody can. It is fine pointing out any shortcomings but they are being solved, bit by bit.
The choice is clear. Stay put at these prices and wait for what we all think will happen, or get out and but back after the deals are done and then post claiming that it was inevitable.
I'll stay put for I feel that there is a better than even chance of those deals emerging, and therefore a better than even chance I'll sell out too low and buy back in too high.

gotya,
You continue to make statements on issues you cant possibly have knowledge of, unless it is inside knowledge. Speculation is fine, but please dont post it as fact unless thats what it is.
If I'm wrong and you do have some inside knowledge, please substantiate the following comments you have made by telling us how you know them to be true:-
1) Packers have said the case is yet to be proven
2)The benefits on paper are not so evident on the shop floor lines
3)there are other issues with the RF machines which the existing ones do not have.
4)Margins are so tight
5)only any good if you can seal without a contaminating laminate layer - how do you know it cant be?
6)As GS still has issues
As Alan says above, and I said to you a few posts back, it is easy to make predictions after the event! Most regular posters here have been saying for months that we wont see the expected major rise in SP until the deals are signed.
I cant understand why people like you believe Walmart and Perseco etc. are in talks and trialling GS, Starpol, etc. if they do not believe in them. If there are problems, and I've seen no evidence to believe there are now, WM etc. know about them and have known about them for some time. Why are they continuing?
And why didn't they just ask your opinion and save themselves a lot of time and money?

The only real problem highlighted with greenseal was retrofitting of the technology to existing heat sealing machines. SEO have stated that new machines are now required for converting into Greenseal which I would have thought would escalate the startup costs of Greenseal. Once the process has been refined we'll know the true cost of conversion key to WMs suppliers.

Very spooky.
40 in September, and looking forward to "when life begins".
It can't get any worse.
Party will run from August to Christmas, although which Christmas is yet to be decided.

Driver, is that Edward Whymper the first climber to summit the Matterhorn?
If so, I claim the prize.

Been a pervert since I was about 12, driver.
I always think the ages of 30 to 55 are the hardest. Too old for club 18-30 and too young for Saga.
Anyway, I'm gonna make this a birthday to remember, cos that will make a change. I can't remember any of the others due to overdosing on Milk of Amnesia (Tetleys).
Anyway, I confidently predict that by my birthday the SEO sp will be in the range of 1 - 1000p and we will still be arguing like buggery whether the management are far-sighted and wise with wonderfull products or a bunch of shysters trying to flog dodgy gold watches with no miute hand that go green in a week.
Just call me Nostradamus.

On the cusp, guys (returning to SEO - remeber the AGM?)
Someone born on my birthday would be pernickity in the extreme and fastidious in all they do. they would also be very superstitious but us Virgos don't believe in all that.

All I can say Nosty is I hope on the watch front they have the same luck as Del Boy and Rodders with the old watches!!

so if you bought at the bottom today, you would seem to be 0.75p to the good having taken account of the spread but omitted any dealing costs
