					<description><![CDATA[Thank you Chris for your insight to this matter.  It sounds like you know exactly what happened here and related in an unbiased manner.  It&#039;s unlikely Sharon will step up to the plate as this does not seem to be her style. Please keep us all informed.  Do we have any idea how this all might be handled, are lawsuits most likely?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Why does it seem the partnerships Dynamis once used as marketing support no longer exist?  Dubois project – dead (outside review found that scale proposed too big for the technology…not enough details provided).  Italy?  Still waiting response from Allway.it. Also, a response soon to come from someone very high in the US/global Waste-to-energy industry.

Recent Dynamis press releases tout a partnership with two companies (part ownership no less!), on two projects signed in Puerto Rico.  I asked a “partner company” specifically about these projects, partnerships, and Dynamis.  A response follows, Mr. Frazier, copied direct (names deleted).

I am a one-man show, working full time and raising a family…but I have enough cursory ‘political’ experience, much dealing with development proposals in a large city, including lengthy Owner Participation Agreements (OPAs),unwritten  promises, and hidden agendas to know people lie, hide, exaggerate, and otherwise don’t tell all to be sure outcome is favorable to them.  If more people learned to scratch the surface of what is presented, the truth might be unveiled sooner in every political decision.  And I am not an Ullman hater….just hating the fact that the project was not fully vetted by her or others.  Ms. Ullman, you could really redeem yourself by admitting your error, and correcting it now.  Might garner you more votes!

					<description><![CDATA[Why is the 350-page, $2 million &quot;plan document&quot; penned mostly by a company, Evergreen Engineering out of Eugene Oregon?
Why is there nothing in the document specific to anyone called Dynamis Energy LLC, nor their engineers, except 8 pages of cryptic generalizations about so-called proprietary technology using computer terms that are well out-of-date?
Why would Ada county accept this, when specific details/plan documents are required?

Why was Evergreen not an attendee at the largest and most important conference for this industry?
http://www.nawtec.org/

Why is this plan document filled in part by multiple product/equipment brochures (some duplicates) from other companies?
Why does the IDEQ PTC form that is part of this hodgepodge specifically address 24 known toxins that will be generated, and some at hazardous levels, even as the reading for all of these right now is “zero?”  

How does DEQ respond to this?
Why does Dynamis, or anyone, pretend that a secondary low-oxygen combustion system means that toxins will be fully contained and magically disappear?
Why is the Barrow Alaska incinerator (look up Barrow TOS) the only project Dynamis seems to want to reference as “built” and point to as an example?

YET why do multiple government reports (Alaska.gov) over multiple years talk about its failings, on-going problems, and lengthy periods of being non-functional?
Why would a WTE project be even considered for Ada County, when these types of costly, pollution generating projects are generally created in areas of no choice (no land fill site, bad/hard/icy soil, etc)…projects of last resort?
Why would  Ada county commissioners think polluting the pristine air of Treasure Valley, at any level, is acceptable?

Why and who is Dynamis? 
Is there a puppeteer behind the scenes of which we are unaware?
What does Mr. Mahaffey have to gain in being the front man?
So many more….and more…. and more whys

EDITOR NOTE--Your questions obviously cast doubts.  Do you have any answers or solid allegations?  PLEASE give us some facts!  The GUARDIAN is a one man band working without compensation.  We cannot chase down every question posed.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Clicked on the website reccomended by Chris Rae--A treasure trove of information.
From one presentation--The latest and Greatest on the resurgence of WTE
Gasification--what Dynamis is proposing--limited operating experience at only small scale; subject to scale up issues--Risk level--High--Tipping fees quoted at a low of $50 to over $100/Ton
I only scanned this one section quickly but cost is high, estimate 4-5 years to prove any of it is economically feasable or even if it works. Much of it driven by govt. mandates and to hell with the costs as they have been doing in Europe--take a look--it&#039;s stuff we aren&#039;t hearing about.  http://www.nawtec.org/]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Why does Dynamis claim their technology is &quot;proprietary&quot; with patent pending, yet there is no patent number?

Why has another told us “it is because Dynamis purchased the technology – the patent could be in another name”  (…aren’t they claiming they INVENTED this technology?  Proprietary technology is not for sale)

Why are no members from Dynamis listed as attendees at this TOP conference in the waste-to-energy field, just this April 2012?  These speakers are the experts, linked to the current 89+ systems in the country. The workshops are specific to improving the technology and making the process cleaner, fuel-efficient?  By all accounts, shouldn’t Dynamis have been a keynote speaker?

http://www.nawtec.org/

Why won’t Ullman admit she was duped before I receive my reply back from  NAWTEC and others I have contacted from this distinguished list?

Why does Mahaffey have a home valued at 800K with debt on it alone of $1 million?

Why does Mahaffey find resources to donate to political campaigns, even as his projects owe back taxes and he is upside down on his properties?

How much salary did Mahaffey pay himself out of the $2 million Ada county funds?

So many more “whys”]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Great questions Chris. The Ada County landfill has been burning the gas and selling the energy for years. It generates enough electricity to power at least 2,400 homes and they have plans to generate more, without Dynamis. And it only takes one full-time employee to run it. So, why do we need a new way to do it? Especially when the starting cost is $2 million. 
Isn&#039;t this called misappropriation of government funds or something? 
Now Mahaffey is selling his home.
So, the county will never get the money back and nobody can fix all the other messes created by these commishs and there is no recourse. Do we need new laws or what?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Why is Mahaffey touting this “proprietary technology” and delivering PowerPoint presentations when he has no experience in this industry?

Why is the one Dynamis team member mentioned as “an engineer” a 75 year old who at one time was loosely associated with an ash dump in Barrow Alaska?

Why are none of the three engineers who actually signed the Ada County agreement in June 2010 being interviewed?  And, who are they?  Why is Kolb not signing the document?

What role do Thomas and Johnson play, and why were they made a part of the team?  Their experience and expertise seems to be in real estate securities transactions, real estate sales of TICs, private capital/equity markets and private placements.  Their FINRA securities licenses no longer active, as they were sponsored by the now defunct DBSI Securities Inc.  What do they know about this technology?

So, who on the actual Dynamis team has actual experience here?  Is the motivation TRULY to pioneer a new technology?  Where is a history of this?

Where is the profit for any investor?  What is the incentive?

Why are all Reuters articles and others that describe partnerships abroad (Italy, for example, www.allway.it ) still leading to no one who has done this work, and why is the source for the information in these articles “Dynamis LLC” and not independently verified? 

Why did Mahaffey reference a preliminary review by RW Beck engineers, when this hasn’t been an entity since being acquired by SAIC years ago?


…..so many “whys”]]></description>
