VERY interesting. I hope they can move forward with this.
But I chuckled at their claim of being the "spiritual home" of audio tubes (assuming "audio" tubes is what they'll make and what they refer to)? Yeah, I guess it was a Brit that came up with the thermionic valve (Fleming), but it was an American (DeForest) that came up with the design that made it a desirable device for audio via the triode, and an American company (RCA) that first produced tubes commercially.
Ah well...at least the US is the spiritual home of the internet since Al Gore is an American. :)
