geob, How gracious.
I am no longer willing to butt heads with you...
But I am willing to discuss items .......
Great. Discussion is a two way street. You want me to answer your questions, it is only fair that you answer mine.
I have already answered a number of your questions, so it looks like it's your turn.
People often want to talk about speculative possibilities based on their current enamoration with the latest news, I am curious as to their previous reactions to promises and claims that never materialized.
The history of DNAP includes a long long list of similar bursts of excitement based on reports and PR's that all just faded away. The list includes but is not limited to; The two million dollar GMED deal; The Orchid option (from 4 years ago); The Malaysian Grant; The collaboration with Asian companies (The leaked secret Web Pages were a riot); The Biofrontera Purchase; and last but not least the latest Beth Israel deal.
I am curious to hear from one or more of the faithful longs, how they reacted as every one (so far) of those exciting prospects faded away into obscurity, and how many such 'carrot and stick' episodes they will endure before they get very wary (and weary).
So here are some questions;
- Why is there no apparent unrest among the faithful concerning the consistent failure of the company to finish anything they ever started? (Don't tell me about Ancestry and Witness as they didn't start them.)
- How many times does it take to gain some semblance of caution regarding a new promise? Realize that many of the voices shouting down the voices of caution are the same voices that were 'wetting their pants' over the GMED deal all those years ago.
- How many of the faithful are not so much enamored by the future, as trapped by the past? Bought in on a peak and got caught by a decline, holding on for dear life in the hopes that it's not just a penny stock swindle. Desperately hoping that Frudakis is really a smart guy and not just a charismatic Hummer owner with a good story. Wanting to hear the good news, hoping, but willing to get out tomorrow if they could get their original investment back?
Curious.
