Whoever that Guest was, that's a farse and you know it "has what you might call some "concerns" in his past". And what are those concerns you are alledging? Why would the company get rid of PK and hire someone with "concerns"? They got rid of the biggest concern (headache, arse).
Your statements are baseless. |

I'd have to look at my old posts but if you'd like me to post James Miller's track record prior to around 2005 I will. I can tell you though, it's not that impressive. Miller can be forgiven for earlier mistakes, of course. But it's hard to pass judgement on him or on GiraSolar one way or the other when no one knows what he's been doing for the last two or three years. Do you think what I've just said is "baseless"?
By the way, it's "farce" with a "c". |

I think that Theck was responding to the Guest post at the end of the previous page.
Just out of curosity where did the Miller info come from? Was it a call to the company? I know that there was a pr that said some but it seems hard to find which Miller is the one at GiraSolar.
It seems that the press release about the letter is the first start in a serious effort at communication. This is a step in the correct direction on which it is advisable to follow. |

The records of Koornstra and Gerwig are interesting. I have been able to gather some about these two. SEC Filings:
| Quote: | Inasmuch as the holders of shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to appoint two members of our Board of Directors, the Company’s Bylaws specify that the Board of Directors is to consist of no more than three members and the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that any amendment to any provision of the Company’s Bylaws relating to size of the Board of Directors must be approved by a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock voting together as a class and voting separately, which results in ISA BV, which is fully controlled by Mr. Koornstra, being in a position to appoint a majority of the members of the Board of Directors and therefore to control the management of the Company.
On November 6th, 2007, and in connection with its ongoing reorganization of its corporate structure, the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which consisted solely of Mr. Koornstra, voted to appoint Mr. F.A. Gerwig, to be member of the Board of Directors of the Company, effective immediately and therewith replacing Mr. D. Brody as a valued long term member of the Board of Directors. This action was taken in an effort to create a more diversified board with additional skills in the fields of financial and general management as well as organization, which are deemed necessary to take our company through its next phase of development. More specifically, during his appointment, Mr. Gerwig will assist us in our registration of our stock on the OTCBB, the reorganization of our corporate structure and a review of the administration of, past and present events within, the Company. Mr. Gerwig, age 45, is a Dutch national with international experience. He is engaged as consultant with Ordina, an internationally operating consultancy company. Prior thereto, he worked with several consultancy firms and his work has involved projects for the Dutch equivalent of the IRS and major banks. Mr. Gerwig has held and/or holds security clearances for certain Dutch Government ministries as well as financial and other high profile institutions. Mr. Gerwig further holds the Dutch title of ‘Ingenieur’ obtained from the Van Hall-Larenstein Institute and a MSc. degree in Finance & Control. |
From information in posts, much of it subsequently examined through websites:
| Quote: | Wieland M. Koornstra, Chairman of GRSR and CEO of GiraSolar BV, is GiraSolar’s founder and has been CEO of the Dutch Company since its inception in 2003, and has a trackrecord in solar dating back to 1993. He has many years experience in international business involving rural electrification projects and other water and solar power needs in the developing world, and has worked with several international assistance agencies, including UN and EU agencies AND one of his projects was awarded an EU ALTENER AWARD by Mr. Solana for the Best Renewable Energy Cooperation Project in Developing Countries.
His companies hold two patents relating to solar systems and silicon. he was asked to be Chairman of the Dutch ZPV, a solar energy producers association and lobby group. Earlier, Mr. Koornstra was managing director of a solar energy company starting out with Euro 300k when he joined and that grew to almsot 30M when he left in 2002/3. He than established GiraSolar BV which grew to a normalized revenue of 40M$ from end 2003 to end 2007.
His work for ISNAR/UN (PV and telecom for agric. research stations in dev. countries), EDF and NUON on the award winning Dutch Gov. subsidized Yeelen Kura Project, ZPV, etc. etc. can be verified everywhere without him having to lick in with lobby groups. |

Maybe JM made enough money in the past to be doing nothiong? But when - as you say - you have nothing to judge his past on, why are judging his present? I am pretty happy with what the JM-WK duo achieved: current in filings, comprehensive info to shareholders, business still there and not faltering (update would be nice, yes) and last but not least Klamthief removed from management. All in akll, quite good, wouldn't you say?

Ah, that explains it - Miller's independently wealthy and didn't need to work. OK.
What do you mean "as you say"? I didn't say I had nothing to judge his past on. I went back to look at my records - he was CEO of a company in the UK started up in '96 or 97' and folded in 2000. I was wrong in an earlier post - the trail grows cold in 2000, not 2005. So I can judge his past. It doesn't matter whether you classify the past eight years as the past or the present, if you know nothing about the man, and the company he works for refuses to publish a bio (no management bios on Girasolar's website going on for six months now) how can you come to a positive conclusion?
In my records I have a message from theck which told me that he had asked GiraSolar for Miller's bio and they sent it to him. I responded by saying that I preferred to get verification from independent sources but that, in order to prove me wrong, he should post the bio. I asked Theck twice to post the bio. Of course, he never did, thus choosing to miss the opportunity of blowing me out of the water for all time.
From memory, Girasolar's PR when the company took Miller on, described him as being a "consultant" for a number of years and that he attended university "in England". Pretty slim pickings for any potential investor interested in buying GiraSolar stock. |

Maybe nothot could give his superb analysis?
I am confused how this PR and a $10.3M contract fits in the gloomy picture.

| Nothot would not be the word for GRSR. Let's see......only about $2M more in revenues for 2008 will meet hotstocked.com's revenue prediction for this year. What a crock. Gotta love the work they put in to come up with that phony number. |

The difficulty with this site compared to other boards is that anyone can post under multiple aliases and there is no way of knowing. It is even easier here for one person to pose as 5 having a discussion than anywhere else.
Poster "Nothot" could easily be the one and the same as the other negtivos.
The hiding game is probably the most played game by pro's on boards! I say pro's, because if one is not, one doesn't need a whole series of aliases.
Talking about pro's hiding: Even this boards US ownership is hiding behind a facade company in Sofia, Bulgaria (EU)! Such an example by management doesn't bode well for its followers.
Logical move BTW for a US company dealing with mostly US posters on mostly US stocks; to them Bulgaria must still seem like the Soviet Union and unapproachable. But GRSR is cross-atlantic; and definitely hope to hear more of WK's visit to their "offices" in Sofia.

The report on GiraSolar, Inc. was outdated and based on the data provided till the Q3 year 2007.
Now the report is updated but we are currently not able to determine the possible effect of the new supply contract on the company's future performance due to the lack of information available.
As you might have noticed, the announcement of the new supply contract had no significant effect on the company's stock price as it has further continued decreasing. |

| You state that the filings have been "consistently late." That is not updated information as we all know that their last filing was withing the timely parameters set by the sec. Where is your update when you have had a month to do so? Imo it may be that hotstocked.com should be labeled as "consistently late "with your filings on a company as promising as grsr. |
