Come on guys--don't bring us down again--first one post slightly leaning--then the next, then the next, and pretty soon we are all down in the dumps within the first 5 minutes. I wish I could convince you guys that we do ourselves no good by doing that. Let me put it this way--everyone wants news--so news comes out and then the expectations are that the pps will change because "something's happening", or "somethings going to happen." Then all gets quiet for a short time, and then someone puts in a post that basically says, "Hey, what the hell's going on? Nothing happened!" Then the next person chimes in that "this sucks!" Then the next person comes in and says, "this is a lost cause." And the cycle starts all over again and if a new investor just happens to be looking at our posts--guess what? No new investor. What I am saying is that we have two choices--and only two possible results. The choices are to keep our heads up and play smart--in other words root for the team, or we can boo all we want and in my estimation that's not playing smart. The two results are pretty obvious--we either make it or we don't. If we boo all of the time and we don't make it--then in my mind there are two negative actions that aren't going to ever go positive. If we cheer for the team--and we don't make it--at least we have a better experience going thru this. If we cheer and we make it--we all are going to feel pretty good about it. It's just psychology that we need to be aware of--it doesn't do us any good collectively when we bring eachother down. The other thing to keep in mind is that I don't think we are going to move much until we start showing some activity money- wise. Maybe some of our Indian friends will get on board--but not too many if they read this board. We have got to play smart--think about what the perception is. It's not always what you do--but what people THINK you do. Perception is everything in this and if we can collectively change the perception--then we can actually help ourselves. And then--when we do start showing some money (and I know that is certainly not a given as of yet--but it is a possibility)--then we will have some momentum on our side. For the sake of all of us let's start playing smarter.
