Good points back at you, hapslap. I can only speculate, but I do think he must strike when the iron's hot (rapid growth to meet as many orders as possible). Although I say this, from an investor's perspective, I'd like to see what you're saying. But, for the long term health of the company, I believe he's making more right decisions than bad.
Again, what you describe would result in a short term pop which I too would benefit. Let's face it, this isn't a momentum stock, YET. If the 2005 forecasts come in strong, we'll be moving up shortly and strongly IMO.
He has put the health of the company first, but I think that if you should choose to invest in VLXC, you should voice your opinion.
