A little history:

the term "terminal" as it relates to a computer relates to the fact that prior to powerful efficient PCs any kind of local i.e. desktop machine was merely a node or dumb-box with a keyboard or other input device and a monitor. Hence the term terminal or x-terminal or dumb-terminal. No Mainframe, no processing.

The term also relates to a Bloomberg that displays stock information. It has nothing whatsoever to do with being at or away from work these days. unless you work as an aircraft controller, at DARPA or the NSA you don't have a terminal , you have a PC.

I have to say, the endless effort by those on this board to find meaning or secret relevance in anything people say is nearly mind boggling.

I recall not long ago that because I use semi-colons in my sentence construction I was accused of being someone named beanito or some such. This in spite of the fact that my very first post to the board I divulged my identity. That's something verging on delusional; to asses me as someone that has been perpetrating a multi-year hoax over the use of a semi-colon.

You have to look at that and think it's funny. Then someone calls their Bloomberg a terminal (which it is) and the next thing you know he works in a boiler room and suffers bologna sandwiches? Now that is logic-based deductive reasoning if I ever saw any!

Meanwhile, half this board hangs on the words of a guy who can't spell his way out of a third grade spelling bee and by his own admission has just had his first life-changing experience with wi-fi not a month ago, but posts as if he's an expert on the technology.

Let me ask you all a question; are you on this board for moral support? To have sunshine and kisses sent your way because you were so prescient as to get this stock at a buck a share (I pity you if you bought at $6). OR are you here to understand the situation, be better informed and buy or sell the shares based upon learning something that in one concrete way or another helps you reduce your risk and increase your reward?

I think you would all be well served to simply pay attention. Sure there are people here with an agenda, however those with the most obvious agenda are the folks with many shares. After all, they have the most to gain from a dramatic increase in price and the most to lose if it takes a dive.

Getting up in arms by someone saying something contrarian or even asking a tough question is plain silly and simply immature. The point of discussion is not a love in, it's to elucidate all the issues and support informed decisions. If every time anyone makes a statement or posts factual information that appears contrary to CLYW's interests, that can either be something you factor into the share price and your risk/reward ratio or not, but what good does it do to attack the person making the post?

I don't need a group of people patting themselves (and me) on the back to make me feel secure in my stock buying and selling decisions, if you do I suggest you get out of the market since clearly you don't have the wherewithal or the emotional strength to engage in such a volatile financial endeavor.

It strikes me as ludicrous that people respond with such juvenile behavior as calling someone that posts something that doesn't seem positive a "basher"; it almost sounds like a bunch of kids on a playground if you step back and think about it.

Beyond this, people on this board seem to have forgotten that this is as much about financial opportunity as technology.

I may not believe in CLYW at all and still trade the stock if I see that I could profit. I have not done so and have no intention of so doing, but I certainly could if I so chose. As could anyone else with the resources.

I'd ask that each of us try to remember these simple facts as we post. Like or not what people say, each of us has just as valid a right as any other on the board to state an opinion. The efforts some make to stifle the free flow of ideas and to label people unflatteringly while at the same time trumpeting the virtues of a company that - let's face it - have not exactly been stellar to date are really acting in a hypocritical fashion and it should be obvious have an agenda all their own.
