Rocky, good to see you back. The last time we "spoke", you were on your way out as board moderator. Since then, I haven't read too many messages on either RB or here, so excuse the late "welcome back". I decided to peruse the board this morning to see how many "investors" were searching for razor blades after yesterday's drop in price. LOL It never ceases to amaze how so many are influenced by daily pps fluctuations. Yesterday, GTEL closed at .23, but only two weeks ago (March 29), GTEL traded at that same exact price. Yet, after reading some 200 posts this AM, a number of "investors" act as if the stock is in a freefall, even selling their position in the company. The more telling numbers show that the pps is still at more than double the price from the first of the year. In other words, I'm very happy this morning. My shares continue to appreciate in value over the longer term. The Stratellite project is still in progress, with many highly qualified people hard at work on it's hoped-for ultimate success. The company's revenues, totally unrelated to anything called "Sanswire One", or "Stratellite", continue to grow ($11MM in '03 to $29MM in '04), and the prospects for further revenue growth, as well as eventual company profitability, still appear promising (Q1 10Q due shortly). The CEO (Huff) still comes across as hard working, determined, extremely prideful of the company's heretofore accomplishments, and, at times, irrationally exuberant. Since the latter trait can derive from the other aforementioned perceived qualities, I can excuse the fact that his PR statements are, at times, too overly optimistic, especially since my investment in GTEL isn't based on hourly, daily, or even monthly, pps figures, OR, on any one specific press release. As it's always been for me, dating back to my first purchase of ADGI shares in February of 1999, as long as the overall goal of management appears to be towards increasing shareholder value for the longer term, and as long as that goal appears to be a successful work-in-progress, I will continue to remain a content and satisfied shareholder. In that regard, April of '05 is no different than February of '99 for yours truly........BTW, thanks to everyone who attended Tuesday's meeting for expressing your thoughts, and for passing along those photos. Rock, have a good one. Steve
