I think you are on the right track. I posted the other day that imo the royalties (as we view them) are too hard to go after. Some poster , I can`t remember who, said I was wrong and posted a simple way to do so. I still stand firm on the belief that the are too hard to go after. You make a very good point in that direction.
The most simple way imo, is to demand larger settlements and allow them to be paid over, say, a 10 year period. I stated this the other day. Around 2015 we would still be making deals that would extend onto 2025.....Just think about this > we get a PR that states we settled with, say, Sony for example and the PR states that we recieved X amount of dollars as the FIRST of many payments. What would the public think? The company would not have to use the royalty term at all and not even tell us that it expires in , say 10 years.....That kind of PR would do the trick, then from then on all we could do is wait for each quarter to see how much money we have comming in. We get several of this type and no one but the company will know how much any one company is paying. The public will view this as ongoing revs and the price will take off. The big kicker will be for Pohl to develope the company into something with other income to.
I wish I could convey this thought to TPL.
