I received a private message over the weekend that accused me of lieing. Here is the complete paragraph from my previous post:
"Finally, the last time that I was in Springdale before yesterday, they had a nice office building, very impressive. When you came up to the glass door they had the company logo inside below the receptionist window. Anyone who has been there can verify that. Yesterday, I was on my way to St. Louis and intentionally went out of my way so that I could go thru Springdale and drop by just to chat and satisfy myself on some concerns of my own. The receptionist window had been painted over. Now there is nothing to say who it is or what it is. The office was dark and no one was there. The only thing that would let you know it was the right place was an old van that has the HTI name painted on it. That was the same van that was there when I visited before. It did not look like it had been moved since I was there before. I tried calling, but no one answered the phone. Makes sense because the office was dark with no one there! Make what you will of that. It will probably be a month or so before I can manage to drive through that area again. It is out of the way for me."
For whatever reason, there is a typo, and I admit that there is a typo. When you take part of it COMPLETELY APART FROM THE WHOLE, you can say that I said the window was painted over. BUT, when you look at the whole paragraph: first, the thing I called a window is an open space. The area that was painted over was below the open space (window) and it was the logo that was painted over.
Now then, can we please get on to what really makes a difference, which is that there was not one identifying mark on the building to say who is doing business there except for the old van? Why is that? One person suggested that he was responsible for the logo being painted over because of a comment that he made to Chad. OK, maybe so, but why not replace it with some sort of a sign, or even maybe just the company name on the door? Lots of possibilities. Why have they done none of them? Hiding maybe? Don't want the writ served on them? Have to serve Chad at his apartment instead of his "place of business"? These are just some of the things that are bothering me and yet the company is still silent since that "shareholder letter".
Personally, I am questioning all of the hype and crap I was told when I toured the building. NDA or not, the disclosures made on that first visit have not panned out. Why is that? Information lockdown? BS! I don't believe that there is any real information to be locked down unless it is the fact that this really is BS. Are you listening Chad? Come on --- Come clean and tell us the truth!
