Folks, time to load up! Principals back from Asia, my guess is they'll have good news from there. Lots of news will be forthcoming in the next little while, imo. DD this.

Haha look at how long I've been pumping this dog....Not the only FASC thread I started here, but it was the first.
I think we might be FINALLY getting close to hearing about some big things. (Although this would not be the first time I've stated as much.) This time, though, it would appear as though a promotional campaign is in the works. (That would be a first for this company.) FWIW I think a couple of those Asian connections might just pay off bigtime.
So...it would seem FASC is getting the word out about their company being involved in ethanol production somehow without us shareholders even having a clue as to what is up...interesting, although somewhat frustrating...but I do expect to be hearing something soon.
A picture featured there is of a crew from Japan Steel Plantech, a company with 360 million US in revenues. They've been a licensee since late 2005 and has been quietly testing the KDS Micronex for some time. It would appear as though the KDS Micronex still is part of their plans...see the bottom of this link (for which I've used a Google translated page.) (Page is copyright 2008)
It would appear as though there may be some exciting things in the works...but it's not as if the company is not making a few sales of its machine in the meantime. Below is their last PR.
• Minnesota Valley Alfalfa Producers, Raymond, Minn., to research the application of a new, energy-efficient technology to process a variety of biomass feedstock to expand the resource options for biomass energy production, $1 million.
Proposal: Researching the Use of KDS (Kinetic Disintegration System) to Process Various Feedstocks for Biomass Pelletization Use
The project research centers on designing and fabricating changes in machinery originally used for pulverizing ores and minerals to process and pelletize various feedstocks for renewable energy applications. The resulting pellet products will be used for energy production by co-firing with coal, in combined heat and power (CHP) applications, for gasification, and/or used in biofuel production. Examples of feedstocks that will be explored include sweet corn silage, distiller’s grain, sorghum and millet, municipal byproducts (trees, grass clippings) paper sludge, and switchgrass.
