We would love to hear your thoughts about our site and services, please take our survey here.
A personal thing (I know it's my problem) but...
m = mili, i.e miliwatt, milimeter (1 1000ths)
M = Mega, I.e Mega-Watt ( x 1,000,000)
and big W for Watt, as in James Watt (Scottish stream engine designer among other things).
800 MW
1 Watt is 1 Joule (of energy) per second (in time), and is also the power of one Amp (electrical current) falling through a potential difference (Voltage) of 1V.
I'm sure that's made your Sunday ;)
The false positives have no risk attributed to them really - needless isolation while PCR is completed. The problem with them I think is that they are self administered by people who have typically not practiced taking something in their mouth to stroke their tonsils... Hospital staff will openly report annocdotely that they miss 50% of positive cases in non-clinical hands. Saliva based rapid POC is the game changer I feel. (Of course catching 50% of cases is better than none but it has its issues)
I call "Not True"
Guys, Josh Mintoe, of Lockerly (Hampshire (presumably)), a Project Manger at Mintoe - with Zero connections on linkedin, .... Have a look around for any record of him, who is he?
All I find is another linkedin profile, same name, IT guy at TTH - equally blank profile.
His listed interests by the way are GD and BC.... and no others. hmmmm.
I want to hear it from DB!! :)
I've been thinking what the southern hemisphere winter might be like for covid to judge what next autumn might look like in US & Europe. Guessing covid 6 minths in advance is not bright. The question for me is how much to leave in over the covid testing dip that might come in late summer. Given that we get no sales data it might not affect SP !! Lol. So I'm guessing peak April into May maybe june, dipping July August, maybe back up for Christmas. I have absolutely no idea tho. I'd rather sell a bit early than hold "too long". Some i will keep, I like GDR.
@Maestrol it doesn't seem to work like that. The contracts seem to be to provide services, e.g. there's a MAG airport testing one, 24/7/365 walk through, drive through, PCR and others... bla bla it's clearly a contract for a service delivery so while BC could be involved they wouldn't go for it entirely alone, because that's not their business - they don't run test centres (that I know of) Hope that makes sense.
@djm1
I'm a bit confused about this too. There's obviously scope to have a biomek doing, gdr only, gdr and other work, or no gdr. I'd like to get a bit more nailed down! I'll have to watch DB & Katie and listen carefully when DB talks about plastic consumables. It's public money, we have this info because it's our money - I think a DB statement could clear all this up ;)
There is the lighthouse laboratories contract expires to replace too. Link below describes what lighthouse laboratories are. Quote below on automation.

Automation and technology
As well as announcing new laboratories that are joining the network, we are investing in new technology to process results faster, we are automating parts of the process and we are installing new machines in the laboratories.
Lighthouse laboratories and partner labs continue to maximise capacity through mobilising additional equipment and optimising workflows. For example, we have mobilised new liquid handling robots.
I'm sorry if this doesn't format very well - it's been difficult to read in this tiny box!!
Hi, I've seen some links to bidstats recently, and that website was new to me.... So I've taken a look around.

I've heard lots of talk, but those seem to be a little heavier than talk to me.
I've tried this; it's a lot easier in retrospect. I tend to do it the other way round - I buy above my comfort in the dip, and sell them at a profit later, while keeping my lth number.... if you value a share don't let go of it! I play like this cos I'm bored, it doesn't really add to profit in a quickly rising stock.
There can't be any reason other than.....
Witches? Same logic used to drown women in the local river. Arguments limited by ignorance. You must consider that there might be something you don't know about before you attribute causation to nonsense.
I think the main thing is a vote to go ahead with a plan (see previous RNS) to buy a parcel of land in west texas, and build a new 200MW mining facility there (Potential to expand to 800MW). It is to be paid for by the issuing of new shares, which has the consequence of "devaluing" current shares, by approx 4%. The facility though will increase the Argo value by considerably more than that and so the SP will easily see a net increase (IMO). Some though, who are less well educated have different view ;) - please doyr with those clues :)
