Dennis, I'm not sure what article you were reading but phrases like "it hasn't translated into significant interest on Wall Street" and "leading to some criticism that Gruder has promised more than he can deliver financially" don't sound like "fluff" to me.

I'm also not sure what you do for a living but building a business that goes from $32,000 in yearly revenue to millions in a single quarter the very next year is a pretty big accomplishment in my book and worthy of attention.

I think with CEO Gruder you have to separate the man from the company in so far as ALYD as a company policy actually goes to extremes to avoid PR hype. Problem is that when Bob gets up in front of an audience or speaks to a reporter he lets his heart do the talking and not his mind. It'll take some time for him to transition from driven entrepreneur to flesh-pressing corporate executive but, from what everyone tells me, he's a quick study if he sets his mind to something. I suppose like most self-starters I know, the best way to motivate them is to tell them they can't do something. Well, we need some analysts to follow ALYD and a major fund to buy in and break the ice on this "new" NASDAQ company. Do you think Bob is up to the task?
