IMHO, there's nothing 'risky' about an honest CEO (EDIT: Founder) laying down the truth on a public board. It is what it is, the truth, which doesn't change if it was blogged, emailed, spoken to your face, or send via carrier pigeon.
I see it as just another example of NTEK going above and beyond to help it's investors get the right info out. Great work NTEK.
