As most of you know, I am in the hills because my investment advisor and banker told me to head here, rather than to invest in CryoPort. On Fridays, I receive a small bundle of messages via trained falcons who still obey me, the falconer.
I received a printout of HS' message.
I can hear it now: "You are basing your investment in CryoPort, your confidence in Peter Berry and CryoPort on the musings of an un-employed shipping employee who never heard of CryoPort and who never even saw the CryoPort container? You are telling me that a "no-brainer" conclusion is one that comes from someone who has never seen a dry vapor shipper and who has never heard of the patented concept? Well, I've got a money manager for you: Earnie Bernie. I've got an investment banker for you: Merrill Lynch (key word being "Lynch"). I've got a bank for you: CitiBank. I've got three car companies for you. ............."
The weather up here is a bit cloudy now. Hard to get a beam on what is coming soon. We definitely need rain. The drought up here is frightening and the fire danger is Red Flag real. All kinds of people try to forecast weather up here in the hills. It is a type of pastime that all of these smart, wealthy, conservative, honest,sensible investment managers indulge in. I think it appeals to their ability to try and predict the future. But..........what do I know?......I could be wrong..........
Since my last post to all of you, I met a new guy here. He's sort of old but a nice guy. Wears a "Drexel Burnham" sweatshirt. Never heard of the outfit. I thought Drexel Burnham was a fashion designer. Not so. He told me his story. Interesting stuff. Never heard of anything like it before.
I told him about my past investment in CryoPort, in the days when I lived down in the valley below. (For those of you who are new to this board,I am referring to the time before I sold it all and headed for the hills, where there is safety, honesty, good sense, prudence and judgement.) He never heard of CryoPort and said he couldn't find a news release on the company. He looked for information but all the old press releases had expired. Whatever..............
I told him what I knew. He thought the concept was very interesting. When I toild him of the advantages and the superiority of the CryoPort Express Shipper over dry ice, he said to me , "This is a no-brainer. The big companies will grab this and use it for their international shipments. Do you know the size of this industry? Do you know the potential out there for this product? Dry ice is shipped in foam boxes that come apart. Dry ice is dangerous. It can explode. Dry ice ice only lasts for a few days. Why did you sell your stock and move up here? Are you cracie, man?"
To which I replied, "I dunno'." I then went back to my cabin, picked up my binoculars and peered out over the valley below and started re-thinking the whole thing over and over. I carefully scanned the valley below and, lo and behold, I spotted a lone tiger, laying low in the weeds adjacent to the river that slowly meanders South, through the Appalachians to Tennessee. I watched the tiger, but then clouds moved in and he faded out of sight. Interesting.........I wonder what it all means......
