John, with all due respect, the number of shares means everything to everyone. Once the initial excitement about the company wears off(assuming we get to that point with a cert and orders), the number of shares compared to earnings will determine the value of the company and a fair price for the shares. You have said that you think this will be a billion dollar company, well, it already has been. We are a billion dollar company when the share price is $5.55. Another comparison made is to TASR. Given the high number of shares we have outstanding, when we hit $30 per share, we will have matched TASR's high for company value (when it was priced at $100).
I have no problem with JB owning a huge number of shares - it is his product after all - but the giant number of shares outstanding is a very pertinent piece of the puzzle.
On another note, after watching the video again, I too would like clarification on the .50 cal and the Fat Boy.
Finally, I agree with others on this board that we will not be moving up until we get a cert, an order, or off the pink sheet naughty list.
