I agree that new ideas can at least spur alternative strategies.
Whats funnier is reading post after post of critics of the company sniping and complaining every event....
Realistically, however, it's not up to posters here (critics or fans) to run the company. That's what the Board of Directors is charged with doing. That's what management is suppose to be doing. I personally don't consider this "funny". You have to admit, buytovc, that success (as defined by a "commercialization event") has been elusive after over 10 years of trying. You really can't blame those of us who have sunk small fortunes in to this company for being critical at this point. Blind faith would be completely reckless (IMO).
BTW buytovc, if it makes you feel any better, I got laughed off this board when I suggested over a year ago that the company should auction off one or more technologies. You want 'a proposal of my own'? There it was. We were trading at about $3.00 per share back then. Now we're nearly at one-tenth that.
Nobody is laughing today. There is nothing funny, IMO, about the current state of the company. Some say "Life is Good" at Torvec. I'd like to hear a factual explanation of how and why that is the case.
