Great post 21434. Although having said that, I do wish the final outcome will be somewhat different to the original.
If Alans post was entered into drivers reasearch pages then surely greekmans post must join him. A gem amongst the informed & educational posts and the pure drivel.

For all those fretting on boom or bust that are using spare pocket money, I will be paying back my various credit cards for a few years if this goes down the Orinoco without the biodegradable canoe or paddle but I am still sleeping like a baby at night and ready to take up the offer placed before us for averaging down at a decent discount if prices hold at present or even climb with renewed positive sentiment. I still believe that in a years time this period of uncertainty will be a really good story of daring wildcat white knuckel investing with a fairy tale ending.

All said and done, they have a leading edge on one of the hottest issues on the planet at present and surely for the future, and one in which we can all feel good in ourselves to have been a part of.......except if the tw*ts f**k it up !! :o)

G.D.
You appear to be hinting that you have bought them at a slightly higher price than at present !!
The upside for you now is that you don't even have to think about selling them for the little money you'd get back so you can sit back and relax and watch the fun and games commence in the next month or two.

Watch out:

SCA Consumer Packaging, Inc., has built a machine called AERGO CP which offers two sealing technologies: Radio Frequency and traditional Heat sealing.

Is Stanelco involved?

do you know what the worst thing in the world is ?


World poverty?
Threat of terrorist attack?
Depletion of earths resources?

I think owning seo shares is pretty low down on my list.
Possibly because I've got a life. ;-)

Antofelli ,did a bit of searching after your post and came up with Algus Packaging inc as well who offer RF sealing.Anyone know how Greenseal differs?apart from the fact that they seem to have been up and running for sometime and GS is still on the starting blocks.Will ask PM.

Oily you didn't look the wrong side of 60 at the AGM maybe the last few months have taken thier toll.

yes tweenie you may be right terrorism certainly does worry me - but do you go on the internet from time to time and check how many africans died of hunger today, how many nukes the good old taliban have got, or if a peice of ice just melted? probably not, the 1st thing you do is whip up a quote of SEO to see if you are more broke than you were yesterday and then right some really interesting rumour that does not involve SEO to try and conjour up some hope that SEO is worth anything on this ridiculous thread of shattered hope ( let alone bank balances). so tweenie please enlighten me on your incredible life where you sit in bed quivering about world hunger.
OBE indeed i did buy when I belived this share was worth anything and sold the majority of my holding when those results of nothingness came out - however - I have just discovered that holding and cursing my luck for having to endure the painful comedy that is Stanelco.

OBE,
Thanks, and lets at least hope the sp stays stable this week.

RF sealing is nothing new - I searched a while back and located patents dating from the 1920's. In this case the use appears to be for blister packs, not food packaging.

Oblo, Anto,
I am sure we had this debate several million posts back. I acnnot remember how it started or who answered it, but I dimly recall that GS differentiates itself by not requiring a PE layer or adhesive, which I think the other RF machines do.
I cannot be certain of this, but it was definitely debated and there were considerable differences.
I am not as technical as many on here, and do not know if this is sufficient to uphold a patent claim, but it was deemed sufficient for the other RF machines to be considered not a great opposition as the benefits of GS revolve around those differences.
May be wrong and I can't find what I was looking for,
Alan

Hi all PM reckons that this is low tech RF sealing used to seal clamshell and blister packs,not in competition with greenseal.

Morning, OB,

I for one don't ignore patents or discusions abut them, but I will readily admit to reading several patents in depth, and understanding about 1 word in 3 (an exageration but I am sure you know what I mean).
Because of this and knowing how vital patent are I have perused every posting on this thread re SEO,s patents.
The problem is with so many posters putting their differing interpreations of said patents, due to my lack of patent knowledge I am not much clearer.
I have apreciated your imput re this but I am sure you would be the first to admit, we would be fools to take any posts such as patent discussions as gospel.
That is not to say I have doubted the validity of contents off said posts, it's just that I don't know. The above was a reply to a post that appears to have disapeared from my screen.
Cheers Greek.

Alan, dont think there is any debate - I did alter my post about a minute after posting it, so you may have seen the unedited version which I changed after I had taken a closer look at the SCA Consumer machines.

As for whether SEO gets any patents to protect it on the RF front - the jurys still out on that one (see my post from a day or two ago) as the fact is, they haven't thus far.

I dont know who 'deemed it sufficient for the other RF machines to be considered not a great opposition' as you say , but whoever it was it will be the Patent Office and /or courts who will decide that. If the difference from previous patents is that it doesn't require a PE layer or adhesive, then the relevant patent giving protection would relate to the process and the Patent Office will decide whether the process is novel - i.e. nobody thought of doing it in the past!

Alan/greek,

Apologies - I did alter my post, but did it quickly after posting it and didn't think there was time for it to have been read!

The original post basically said SCA Consumer have got a working machine, but I then thought that was misleading because it doesn't appear on the face of it (and IMO!) to presnt any problem to SEO. I also said that Patent Matters are avoided on this BB and any posts relating to patents are usually ignored.

Apologies again - I didn't think anyone read my posts anyway - and certainly not that quickly!!

Apologies, Oblo,
When i said it was deemed sufficient, what I should have put was that the concensus on here was that it was different enough that even without a patent, it was not really competition!!
I know nothing of patent law, other than it is expensive and lengthy. As you say though, it is the novel bit that is important. SEO have done RF sealing for years as well. Unfortunately, patenting takes so long, and challenges even longer, that if we wait for legal clarity before investing, we will all be dead and buried and have to ask our will executors to do it for us!!!
Its all part of the rich tapestry of risk and reward in the end.
Alan

OB,
No problem, you must be more popular than you think.
Greek.

'Morning all

Right, I'm bailing out. All those sells are making me really nervous!

lol

The oily one

Anyone received prospectus yet from TD Waterhouse re shareoffer?

robin
No.
Nothing from TDW where I have 4 different accounts holding SEO shares.
Also nothing in the post directly to us at home to cover both our 'own name' shareholdings.

Tony,
You will have to liquidise your holding to cover the compensation claim from your postman for the hernia he gets delivering that lot!!!
