Gleasman blew every deal he ever started because he was a great engineer and the worst salesman on the planet. He thought he products were perfect the way they were and expected people to give him billions without having to prove anything to anyone.
Kaplan knows this isn't worth anything until he has a product he can stand behind. He is smart enough to know he is a great business man but doesn't know anything about engineering. He has surrounded himself with the right people.
I agree with you this could be another year or so of waiting but I don't think it's fair to compare gleasman to Kaplan. Shame on me if I'm being fooled all over again but this guy makes me feel like my money is in good hands and for that I will sit here patiently for a few more years and see what happens. If this goes to 33 cents again I'm going to buy TONS.
