TR, I want to jump in here regarding PRs and guidance.
There is more to it but I can't put my finger on it. Brian gives me the distinct impression that he believes that he has no obligation to communicate to the shareholders other than the required quarterly reports. Playing amatuer psychiatrist here, the shareholders are perceived as a pesky annoyance not deserving of information. After all, Brian eats and sleeps FASC and has significant capital at risk. The shareholders are just along for the ride on the back of Brian's hard work. THe shareholders haven't lifted a finger to make the company successful. Why should he take time out of his busy day to appease a group of nameless, faceless people complaining because they have invested a little bit of money and they haven't become millionaires yet. If and when it is convenient for him to impart information he will do so, otherwise we should all get real jobs like him and make a successful businesses like him. This notion about Brian being too old to have to worry about PRs, Brian raising contrived possible liability issues, claiming limitations due to confidentialtiy agreements, or failures to meet the all events test for revenue recognition, etc., etc. are all a pretext. Brian simply does not want to kowtow to others when he is busting his ass. To me it is borderline defiance. All IMHO.
