Grajekk, I think I may understand what you're feeling. If you're thinking of pulling out because of a financial hardship, then by all means do what you must. If not, then consider the following. My thinking on this company has been long term since day one (10 years out during 2007, so still 6 years to go). What I have argued in my posts is primarily that Cyclone is filling a huge void by developing modern steam engines. While I am no expert, I do know enough to be thoroughly convinced that Cyclone is doing it the right way. This explains why I have such a long term outlook... I understand better than most how difficult the problem is. A good metaphor here is imagining a group of people lost in a dense forest. They must hack through the brush with machetes. The machetes must be sharp, and they must be handled efficiently by the user. Most important, the group has to hack through the brush in the right direction! I'm convinced that the basic design of the Cyclone engines, and the markets that Cyclone is currently targeting, represent moves in the right direction. Unfortunately, there is a lot of brush to hack through.

Sorry for the cheesy metaphor, but it works. Many people tried to bring steam engines back over the last several decades only to crash and burn. Nobody is going to give Cyclone a break without seeing some serious results. This cannot be offered without thousands of hours of run time on the engines with incremental improvements along the way. It takes years.
