Besides the fact that that company never really took off.....EVERY public company on the Planet needs awareness to gain shareholders....... That's the whole POINT of going public. So a company can grow it's business plan and get the funds necessary to do that. And SHARE holders become OWNERS of that company and share in any profits in the form of dividends.
$PTOI is STILL working on generating value for her shareholders...and I find nothing wrong with the whole concept of Public Companies.....
