I think blaming the entire sordid history of this company and its predecessors on the dastardly infringers is short sighted. The problems of infringement for any company that is based almost exclusively on its intellectual property must be expected. You know the time-honored adage, "Don't get in the water unless you know how to swim with sharks". Many of the problems GERS is facing today are self inflicted. That said, crawling out of the much and mire is possible but will take more than just vanquishing the dastardly bad guys. Should I start the list with: establishing a real corporate governance? We could start a poll of what needs to be done and be bewildered by what ensues, much of it logical and reasonable. My point is that we have to start and any one assuming that we are going to transit from where we are to where we should be in terms of PPS without demolishing the old and laying a solid foundation is not paying attention. I have had two conversations with people of substantial means that I have tried to convince to come forward and invest or better provide alternative financing. After review of publicly available information their responses were very sobering -- it ain't going to happen without major corporate and share structure changes.
