"PS. The disappointment for me was I was lead to believe from Rob that most of our questions we spent so much time over would be answered in Huff's presentation. Unless asked in the Q and A they were not."

So much more than "dissapointing" to me. First my heart sank and now my ears are hot with ANGER....

Thanks, Mide, great report and I especially appreciate your analysis of the people running this company. I said in an earlier post during the SHM that had Dumas been in charge in December of last year as COB we wouldn't be having the discussion on SP today. He is one savvy business person with an impeccable resume. Anyone bashing this company that has a resume like his I will listen to. Until that happens I believe we are in great hands NOW.

I believe there are far too many daytraders in this company today instead of investors. Daytraders are looking for a quick buck and have very little patience. I have taken a great hit in my portfolio on the lines of Design but I havent sold a share so I havent lost anything except a little value and maybe some pride. I have the patience to wait and hope to see some great results in the near future.

Mide...thanks for sharing your SHM review with us, I especially liked this part :-)

At the end of the meeting we walked out together and I told him how happy and relieved that he had become the Chairman. He said, " I will be shocked if this company does not become a multi-billion dollar enterprise in the near term." To which I said, Sir that would make a lot of people very happy.

Thank you mide. Great reporting. I too am concerned about the share price but I am invested and with the grace of GTE and it's vision I keep going and accumulating with my kids pizza money when ever I can.

Kids:(Mom can we have pizza today or are we buying GTE again!)
Me: (You guys don't want Pizza it will make you fat)hehe, as I run and buy more GTE.
Me: (I put them to bed with a good dinner and pray that I can afford to buy Pizza for them someday). GO GTE PLEASE!

REGARDS AND MUCH THANKS AGAIN,
SERIOUS1

Dumas said to mide as they were walking out:

" I will be shocked if this company does not become a multi-billion dollar enterprise in the near term." To which I said, Sir that would make a lot of people very happy. His final remark was,

"Especially me!"

I wonder what he meant by near term?
