Is this lil company the lil Engine that Could?

Is Inventive Solutions, LLC the little engine that could save the Gulf Coast? Inventive Solutions is the creation of California resident Paul Vaughn. Mr Vaughan claims his company invented a chemical that can disperse oil slicks such as the one currently in the Gulf of Mexico without harming any fish or the environment.

I spoke to Mr. Vaughan last night as I'd known his daughter and son-in-law for years through our LSU tailgating group. His company perfected a process in North Carolina for the treatment of hog wastewater. Treated the wastewater so well it could be used again by the hogs as drinking water. In California his company created a chemical that could disperse diesel spills. IS filed the patent application several weeks ago.

Mr. Vaughan said they created a new chemical that disperses petroleum spills without any toxicity. He stated the chemical was tested in fresh and salt water tanks containing fish. The fish completely survived and the oil disappeared.

Unfortunately for Mr. Vaughan, his company is a small one that lacks the media resources and connections possessed by large corporations. He has been screaming for some time about his chemical but no one has noticed. Someone from Jindal's office finally called him over the weekend and a demonstration is scheduled for Thursday (It is open to everyone and will be videotaped.). Unfortunately, BP learned of it (probabably from Jindal's office) and visited the company in the last 48 hours. The terms were BP gets 90% of everything as well as the credit and if they don't, well, ever heard of the term blackball?

Hopefully, someone in Barbour's office will see this post and investigate whether this company can help save the Gulf from a disaster.

I sent this link and the website to someone who might be able to help get this chemical into the right hands.....

This is unbelievable! BP continues to amaze me with their greed. I assume it's okay to spread this around.

PS. I didn't know you went to LSU. I guess you can't be all bad.

Unknown said...

YES! It is ok to let people know how dirty they are!

I just linked to this on facebook and told people to contact you if they could help.

The question now may be do they want to clean it up.

Kingfish said...

He does. I've spoken to him several times.

Seeing the book, The Little Engine That Could, brought back a lot of memories, in the first grade my mom introduced me to the Canton Public Library, this was the first book that I checked out and read, and I have loved to read ever since.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
