I hear from "an EEStor insider"

I have dubbed the alleged EEStor insiders who have been spilling the beans to bloggers, the Gnomes of Austin. The Gnomes of Austin, the EEStor insiders or people who claim to be insiders are certainly more communicative than in the past. And that communications is basically with bloggers. I found this comment by "Gnome Carl" this morning on one of my earlier EEStor pieces:

Pollution: Moving from individual engines to central electricity generating plants would mean a net decrease in overall pollution. Even getting pollution out of our crowded cities would be a gain for public health.

Charging: There's no need for five minute charging at home. If one needs to get a big quick boost, that can be provided at dedicated charging stations.

Dick Weir, founder and CEO of EEStor, told me a few weeks ago that there would be an announcement soon on permittivity of its barium titanite powder, considered a major benchmark that would trigger future payments to EEStor from ZENN, and I can only assume Kleiner Perkins as well.

My Comment: I am in complete agreement with the first statement, which I feel would be ample justification to switch transportation from fossil fuel power to electricity. Significant human health benefits would flow from the switch.

The second statement reflects the difference between ultra capacitors and batteries. Ultra capacitors can be charged very rapidly from a high current source.

The announcement of third party test attested results on the permittivity of its barium titanite powder would certainly add to the credibility of EEStor.

Finally I note Carl's claimed insider status by stating, "Dick Weir . . . told me a few weeks ago . . ." Not a test of a production EESU mind you. We are still in a world of shadows and whispers, but the whispers are getting louder. One more note, at the bottom of his comment Carl left me a little scoop:

Update: The EE Story makes the main stream media in Canada. The link (Carl provided) on closer inspection would appear to not be a genuine EEStor web page, so no scoop this time.
