David,
"The situation here is not good, and some people seem to be doing whatever they can to make it worse. Before I expect Steve to make a reappearance, he may need to be reasonably convinced that doing so will not just make matters even worse. And that's something that's in our hands."
no no no no no no. Steve needs to communicate to investors whether it benefits him or not. LACK of communication in general is KILLING his business, and it manifests itself here on this board as a resounding gong of negativity. That negativity doesn't stem from investors... it comes as a REACTION to a lack of relevant information FROM the farms. Based on the fact that this is a REACTION .... then the cause lies with TATF... if it begins there, it also needs to end there. TATF needs to start communicating to turn things around. Its VERY simple... ultimately the business may fail, but there is simply no excuse for Steve's and TATF's silence in these hard times. There is no excuse for not publishing quartlerly or monthly reports when you have a multi-million dollar investment business. I myself have tried to extend the olive branch to Steve. He did not and has not taken my suggestions. He is simply not interested in any way but his own. Whether we want him here on this board or not, or he comes back or not, doesn't much matter, as long as more relevant information gets REGULARLY and PREDICTABLY sent from the farms to keep investors informed. Without that, the negativity will continue here, no matter what you David say or do. This forum has extended olive branches, and had nothing but silence from TATF. it is NOT our job to "coax" Steve back here... IT IS Steve's job to do the right this by his investors... oh well
