Rim Semiconductor Company (fka RSMI)

A few thoughts. Many of the old posters who touted the stock several times a day simply quit posting for all practical purposes years ago. Many of the "bashers" on this board weren't bashers at all on the earlier boards. "Jilted lovers" is a nice rhetorical touch. Some might suggest "rape victims" would be a more accurate term, though the counter to that would be no one forced anyone to buy the stock. So let's just get the sex out of it. There was no sex. Just a couple of guys on surf boards in the cold water of Ireland. Does anyone remember that?

"Sour grapes born of impatience?" I do remember a speech about delivering on the promise, and I do remember a one year time line being offered by the speaker (Tom Cooper). Something about rolling thunder by another speaker (Brad). Vague references to Microsoft. Revenues from the movie. And Rich telling us in Dallas that a significant technical breakthrough would be forthcoming in weeks. And late being told that the "technical breakthrough" was the hiring of Cooper. Who didn't stay in office very much longer after he told me personally if he didn't believe in the company he wouldn't be there.

I guess you could say it was sour grapes on my part, but hardly born of impatience.
