I just got this note from Teresa. I forgot about what I love about this company until after I read this:
I have been out with major surgery just returning to work yesterday; sorry for the delayed response.
I will not lower to the level to address the accusations made yesterday- they deserve no response-
As far as the Exchange, it is operating as we had planned- it is imperative that everyone understand we are still very young in its operation; however, money has to also be wired into accounts to both buy and sell; when you're dealing in a global market- that takes time.
We as Americans are so used to instant gratification; this Exchange will ultimately provide for the largest private Fundation in the world- we have huge activities going on right now as we speak and once press released we will feel a great surge.
I understand everyone's frustration- I really do- on the outset, however, if one looks back at what we have accomplished in such a short period of time, it is absolutely amazing. Micheal's genius continually surprises me and he has more in store for everyone.
Please, please just be patient a little longer- this is a massive underaking and we want it to be absolutely flawless- we are working through the glitches 24/7 as quickly as we can.
Longterm, I can assure you - disappointment in the Exchange will not be one of your concerns.
I have no problem with you quoting me in this entire context.
Best regards and again the apology for the delay,
Theresa
