I have corresponded with Greg at length (imagine how maddening it is for me when I can drive to their office!). They have lost funding, and have no signs of getting any. I told him I would be more than happy to be a walking advertisement for them and meet with funding sources with my SIX M6's, films, etc., to tell them to give Spinal Kinetics money so they can help people, but he thanked me for the offer without seeming to want to take me up on it.

I have half a mind to drum up funding myself for them!
