Well written TC. I know I come across as a basher, but I do believe in this product or I wouldn't be here. I do distrust management for obvious reasons. I like to try to keep them honest, so to speak, and balance out the cheerleading that does happen here too often. The champagne gets popped a little prematurely.

I don't think it will be a matter of if, but when this thing takes off. Unfortunately the when is the crucial part when trading options. Hence when they miss their promised deadlines, if infuriates me as it costs me money. And thanks for the support as well Jack. Much appreciated.

For the critics, I think that it is really hard to judge the leadership as a failure. The stem cell market is unchartered territory and there have surely been mistakes along the way. However, they are pioneers and there isn't any textbook on how to stand up a game changing company in unknown territory.

Well stated, and it is the salient point!

For the cheerleaders. Great technology, product, and I agree on the doorstep of advancement. Don't be so celebratory and naive around management though. Zami was an excellent visionary and strategist to go after the 3D technology and placental source, but the naysayers do have some good points about bringing in industry experience and more business horse power. Management does matter!

Yes it does!!! But it's the visionary who is the sine que non,
the rest is just accountants and MBA's.

The only quibble I have is this "cheerleader" stuff. I think of myself
as an investor, who thinks Pluristem is a great opportunity. The obvious
manifestation of that is that I genuinely like the company and do say so.

Thanks for a nicely stated perspective!
