Huge, world-changing claims and no information on which to evaluate them? Ping! My loon-o-gram has just gone off.

That's pretty much how I feel, but I was hoping that someone would have something more to offer.

It's a fairly standard press release. The inventors have by the sounds of it come up with some sort of novel coating technology which has non-stick properties. What they are most likely ddoing is looking for investment to develop it further. Their website is full of similar press releases, full of buzzwords, designed to get as much mainstream publicity as possible and it seems to be working.

Yup, that's what I thought. I was just hoping someone might turn up more details that would let me know if it was real, overhyped or a scam.
