Oliver Kuttner: Yes. I am going about it in a different way but i am sure it will happen... no worries. The key is to get the job done but not be the slave to the money... the money will always not be enough or not be delivered soon enough.... so if you learn to do it without dependence on the money you do not have to compromise.... so we look small and silent but make no mistake there is more going on now than ever before. just not bleeding.

I finally got to look at the Facebook posts from Oliver, and saw that he lists "Worked for Edison2". I suppose that means the E2 is now defunct and that he is going "a different way" in a larger sense than I thought from your post. It is really sad that he could not work out a deal to get these built. I thought he was close when I spoke to him at Fantasy Junction. I'm still rooting for the VLC, and I'd love to have one for my regular long drives that I have to take for work. Sell me a DIY kit and I'll get it on the road here in CA and that should help generate some buzz around the product.
His posts about Ukraine are very interesting. He seems to have a much better grasp of what is going on than most of the mainstream media around here.
