A lot of people think that we are better off without Aubrey, but I am not one of them. As long as he was head of the company I always felt he would do the very best for the company.

I don't know much about manufactured filtration for power generation systems. I would think it not a major cost item so it wouldn't take a large investment. The story is the increase in use of natural gas. Any time you decrease the use of coal that's a good thing. Every little bet helps to decrease global warming. By 2030 most of it will be nuclear anyway.
