Al - I stated I was going to call Brian and talk with him. As yet, I still believe it is not the right time. Here are a few of my personal thoughts.
1. I water down somewhat TR's and Net-Man's comments by my personal relationship in the past with RJ. RJ knows Brian better than the rest of us.
2. My personal opinion of Brian ( which could radically change--and perhaps for the better), is that he is honest. He does not want the shareholders to fail and not participate in FASC's success if we make it.
3. Brian is an old man. He is relying on what was already in process being modified and used. We are not as currently represented out in the field as we should be. Licensee contacts, international travel, financial restraints, all keep us as a skeleton company, barely still functioning at all.
4. All these factors can leave us "out in the cold"--and falling well behind our competition when vibrant management contact is needed.
5. If we "do get off our feet", our first need will be new active qualified management that can get us back into and keep us "in the loop" as far as our technology and its applications are concerned.
6. St. Malo is frustrating. His reports to us are less frequent, and one wonders whether roadblocks have discouraged him. I think he is "still in the ball game" and there can be good sales over several years at least if his model program gets funded and operational.
7. There is enough said on all the other current developments. For a penny, one might be saying. "Would I be buying this stock as I examine all the risks, as well as possible rewards of a financially delinquent, non--reporting, non-communicative company?" Many might say no. I still say yes. But I am willing for my dollars to go down the drain if I am wrong. I still want to "get and keep a life" regardless of which way we go. Fortunately I am well blessed in this area. - Dave
