i have finally grasped the nettle and subjected myself to an hour of the latest Master Pontificator podcast.first point is mellon talked about venturex which he described as having an oven ready copper mine with proven reserves."someone will come along and buy venturex".make of that what you will (probably meaningless self promoting puff, but at least worth a mention for those who haven't listened) on the longevity front the interviewer(stooge) prompted mellon by referring to the interesting news re regent pacific. mellon's response was a little odd imo. "I'm not really involved ,jamie gibson has done that". this seems to sit oddly with the commentary in one source which said mellon would be running it. perhaps they haven't decided who will be running it yet (coin toss perhaps?). he said that regent have bought a company which produces a biological clock which "is dressed up as something called Young AI and it will be launched quite soon" not sure how young ai is spelled. he did say words to the effect that it was very good news for regent, but he would say that wouldn't he! although my emailed question was not selected he did in fact largely answer it by saying that the product is likely to be of interest to the finance industry with attractions for insures and also in relation to drug testing, to see if treatments etc are having a beneficial effect in relation to the ageing process, by measuring biological age as opposed to chronological age.i have tried to produce his words verbatim where quoted but have paraphrased in some places.all probably self promoting propaganda but having taken the trouble to listen (it was pretty tedious ) i thought i should probably share.

thanks dead cross.ive seen the melody tweet now so all clear.

thank you BE .i shall be listening to it in next day or so but bit tied up at moment.

do we have a new conspiracy theory LF?

dead cross can you elaborate please as i haven't seen any tweet etc.

yes looks like they have just reproduced the earlier wording in the update.i have not been able to listen as yet to the website presentation. does this elaborate on the stability work?

might not be a great choice mel.

morning bignose. all perfectly tenable points.i suppose I'm looking at it very much from a sentiment point of view rather than fundamentals.im certainly not expecting deep thingy to be our saviour(thats going to be FDA approval imo still) but having announced it for better or worse i really do think it would be a very serious blow if it fell through.i agree it wouldn't mean we were finished but it would do a lot of damage.anyway lets see what the next few days bring.

well bignose i understand and in a sense share your view, but my fundamental attitude is based solely on what happened when yooya fell through and we went into a tailspin. if this falls through i expect the same will happen and possibly worse. if we are not already ,we would become the laughing stock of the HK exchange (and probably everywhere else.} of course your points about lack of income and dilution are perfectly valid and a cause for concern, but i would rather have a diluted percentage of something than a bigger percentage of nothing. no idea if it's just algorithmic smoke and mirrors. personaly and without and technical understanding to support this view, i don't think it is. this seems part of the world's general direction and i speak as someone who is no fan of the development (old age rears its head I'm afraid). virtual worlds, virtual imaging, virtual drug trials, etc. one positive for me is that a long running trope of this board has been the complaint that regent have been able to run things entirely for the benefit of the board. if we get some additional larger investors(and i appreciate the holdings will be small in comparisonto mellons) and perhaps in due course a new director or two, this might go some way to addressing this problem. it probably won't and I'm certainly not holding my breath, but for me it's almost a case of any change in any direction is better than the continuing misery of underachievement and decline.just my view of course and time will tell.

the phrase"some of the biggest names in music"is what really worries me.this is what mvr have been missing, as they haven't had, imo, the substance and industry clout to secure the biggest names. that may change of course and FB are not the only game in town, but quite negative news imo im afraid.

i just hope we don't start to experience the same delays in producing the documentation for DLI as we had re yooya. bad news if we do.

yes that makes sense ORLM.thanks

ok cheapie thanks for that.not what id hoped then.

5Orrell the price difference is very interesting.does it reflect an increase due to demand?ie test at £10 in pre sale and increase if good uptake? pure speculation and may well have been entirely pre planned of course.

bid is exactly the same as yesterdays close.small drop on the ask.fum did not say in jan that"all would be clear" by summer/september. complete distortion of what was said. doesnt seem to demonstrate scientific rigour in terms of accuracy of reporting .

not really my area of knowledge but one months free trial seems a good idea.

yes somewhat bigger vibe as they say, or so it feels.

exactly LF!

interesting to see reading and leeds festival re- tweeting it.

well i did wonder but just speculation of course.here's hoping!
