As for me, I'm waiting to see what this Company can do when it has all the stores converted and has gone through it's busy season. Everyone can continue to beat the cr** out of Tom and everything that has transpired, but as for me, I'm waiting till we have the stores up in place and fully operational.
Maybe the share structure will be too muddy by then - maybe not...but I do believe in the business plan and a 100+ year old Company that is the foundation of the area is nothing to sneeze at. Tom's idea of taking over the stores and adding synergistic businesses to them is what it's all about. Unfortunately, it doesn't happen overnight and it takes capital.
Some would feel better by Tom explaining himself more fully. I really think that is what the filings are for. I learned a lot about who Tom is from the way he responded to our web squatting friend a while back. IMO, he is not the shady type many would like to imagine...he isn't pi%%ing in a foreign country with bottled air or blood diamonds, this Company is in his backyard and there is too much at stake beyond the get rich CEO scam. Just my opinion...
