I find this whole scenario incredible.
If I basically understand things correctly, we own a company with a successful product. It works. The flagship Marriott wants to know how Tivus can get hooked up to 70 of their hotels but nearly killed the whole thing making Tivus do the impossible-patchwork their obsolete system into Tivus' superior one ---and he succeeded!!!??!? (Could it be that Marriott is making money using the Tivis system? What do YOU think?)Many other hotels want it. Duh, no kidding? Turning a traditional hotel expense into a money stream? Again, Duh.
And, by the way, we have a CEO who is SO driven he has done the one thing success demands: Give everything.
So here we are, sitting on a goldmine, a real goldmine. No kidding, the next Apple. Of course, the next Apple, why damn not. This is huge. Our little company is struggling. Needs some help.
What do the smart people here think now? Do we let the chips fall as they may? If it fails, we fail, all is lost and onto the next good-looking thing?
I say it is time we, yes, the shareholders, put our collective heads together to see what WE can come up with to help this bird fly as we all know it should. Wow, actually help someone. What an incredible story that would be to see splashed all over the front page of Barron's and Businessweek, eh? Shareholders help pave way for stock's success!
How cool to have us actually do things we can think of to do that are helpful to the investment. God knows we've put enough energy into pissing and moaning.
No, I don't have specific ideas yet and some with say, screw this I am too busy. I say, "Fine", whatever. Maybe if there was someplace, some other forum perhaps, we who are compelled could discuss things amongst ourselves without smearing negativity all over the one place new investors come to learn.
I do not know what is practical, if anything. But I think it is at least worth the discussion. I do not want to see SP sell his patent and the have all of this end up in nowheresville.
No jokes right now, because I am dead serious and because I have had a profoundly horrible tragedy happen within my immediate family over the past few days. I am sorry.
R3---thanks a million. Really. You went out there and got information. Thank you.
SP... carry on, man, carry on. You are going to succeed. Too many people want it to happen and know that it should. The concept and its execution are excellent.
