Thanks for taking the time to explain that so extremely well Jeff..

Many people don't understand the difference between outstanding free trading stock and what has to be accounted for as "fully diluted" for earnings purposes.

Another issue people should bear in mind is that until those preferred shares are converted, this stock is trading on a relatively thin float (from institutional perspectives).

That is why GNET remains volatile with unreasonably wide spread between the bid/ask.

So assessing the value of a stock fundamentally from the perspective of fully diluted earnings, and analyzing it "technically" based upon the actual amount of freely trading stock in the market should be two different perspectives.

Thanks again.

Ron
