So, I'm not a philosopher, but I did take a philosophy class once upon a time. The title of the class was 'Introduction to Logic.' You start this post telling us how inept New Mexico is and then go on to explain how New Mexico didn't see Sigma Labs as the rising star that many on the board believe it is. I forget the name of the fallacy that this sort of argument falls under, but either way, its a crappy argument. Thanks for nothing!

A little perspective: New Mexico is a very small state (2 million total population). We have much higher unemploymnet rates than the rest of the country and rank right up there with Mississippi in terms of educational attainment, poverty levels, crime, drug use, etc. Government is our largest employer and we have very little to celebrate in the way of innovative startups. In order to stimulate interest in technology and promote the growth of small technology firms the Albuquerque Journal publishes a list each year of what they refer to as "the Flying Forty". These are the top small technolgy companies in the state that the Journal considers the most significant high tech small companies. I read the article with interest today hoping to see Sigma Labs highlighted as one of the Flying Forty. There was nary a mention. For all those here with their hopes and dreams riding on Sigma's future success I thought you might want to know how the locals here in New Mexico view your chances.

Either your perspective is dated or you have insight into this year's Flying 40, which isn't scheduled to be released until Wednesday evening.

http://www.techventures.org/flying-40/

The 2016 listing will be compiled from voluntary responses. Eligibility will be determined in three categories: top revenue growth companies with revenues between $1 million and $10 million; top revenue growth companies with revenues of more than $10 million; and top revenue-producing technology companies irrespective of revenue growth.
