Let me explain why we are sooooooooooo happy. First, when one comes to this forum and day after day we have to read what a criminal SP is and what a day in SEC history it's going to be when it finally comes to suspend Tivus for all of the egregious treasonous acts committed, it is not that much fun for starters.
Bear in mind, we longs tough it out month after month with no hard numbers with which to assess our investment other than the PPS, which, all by itself, can be something of what one might call a "bummer", if you catch my drift.
SO.... with this information now firmly in the forefront of your mind, imagine that some business people with track records and experience , having been approached by SP to come on board, look over the lay of the land, see what they see and -presumably with no firearm pressed into their temples- decide to join Tivus and to see if their talents can add some value to the venture.
It would be analogous to making a trip to Zeta Reticuli on impulse power only (which would take quite some years) and then along the way you suddenly get handed a freshly mined set of Dilithium crystals to load into your ship's power plant. Now the arduous journey has been reduced to the better part of one day. It makes you feel Soooooooooo happy.
Sure your crystals will wear out, but maybe before that happens, other good things might transpire and Zeta Reticuli is now just a fun place to drop by from time to time rather than being a multigenerational marathon with no worthy goal at the end of the trip.
Does this sort of clear it up?
SPock...feeling a little frosty this morning.
