No nerve hit, not in my case, just trying to help. I am not an 18 monther but a 36+ monther, I have earned my say. I have seen more 10Q's that were nothing more than a cut and paste from the previous one than some have seen in total. When I say that hope and faith is not a strategy, I am referring to myself, since I don't purchase and hold stock on faith, until now. I have owned and managed small businesses for the last 25 years, and I know better than to hinge my bets on faith and hope in a company. My whole point to DZ was simply to empathize because every single one of us has been there, whether we will admit it or not. There was a time when I had no clue that there was even one other person who owned this stock. I can't tell you how happy I was to find this board, at about 300 posts, and find that there were others who were wondering just what they had bought into. And IH8, I thought he was a company REP. I believe firmly that there would be far fewer of US holding this stock by now had the board not existed. We helped each other hang on when the doubts overcame us, normally around 10Q time, and the cumulative DD and optimism have brought us to where we are now. We dreamed and hoped and had faith and then when the same old dull 10q's with no news came out, we blew off steam, said our piece, said an optimistic thing or two to those more doubtful, and moved on, but more importantly, HELD on. In times since, I have seen the wolves descend on too many during their times of doubt, and I felt that I would give DZ some encouragement before that happened. In my opinion, the wolves who attack the doubters are only doing so out of fear that the doubters are correct. I may be wrong, but to me, the best thing that the members of this board can do is to hang tough together, and pick another member up when doubt takes over, just like we did in the old days three years ago.
