GD,
For days now I've been posting on a "dead" string. It seems as if our "lock-it away investors" only cheer when the stock is going up. I've been trying to say over and over again that if those of us on the string really believe in this company's long term potential, perhaps the "cheers" and hand-holding are necessary when the stock is being played with by MMs and going in the opposite direction. Unable or unwilling to fill buy orders, buys going across above the ask and the ask being dropped, low volume on the down side, etc.. Come on, guys, this is MM playtime. If some of the posters' conception of "long-term" is 6 days, 6 weeks, or even 6 months, then perhaps they are looking at TSIG as a trading vehicle or a double or triple. People playing with "pennies" looking for a quick buck had better be nimble and watch the tape every second... don't even go to the bathroom or you might miss it. Investors should look for a company with good strong aggressive management, with a good game plan and potential, and with the willingness to put their money where their mouth is (ala Gordon... don't begrudge him taking stock unless, of course, your willing to put up the cash he is doing). I believe I've found one in TSIG. A downdraft or 2 or 3 as we've seen recently shouldn't concern anyone (particularly with the phone calls to management from some of the generous posters who've graciously shared the information with us), but rather should be looked at as an opportunity to get more stock (if they'll fill your order!!).
I've posted below an e-mail I get regularly from PC Magazine. Interesting that one of our competitors is listed there. Probably not a bad idea for management to do the same. It's automatically sent out by e-mail on a regular basis so one doesn't have to search for it.

I sincerely hope nobody takes offense at this post, but one begins to wonder about the sincerity of some of the "long-term holders". Were they some of the small sales going across the past few days? I, for one, would be very happy to see a nice steady slow climb ("up 20, down 10"). Each time it goes down, new buyers come in and the base becomes higher and higher. Isn't that what we all want... an extremely successful Company with a $100/share price 5 years from now? It's fun to watch and talk every day, but let's not panic. IMHO, TSIG will make it and make it big, but not overnight. Good things take time and money and the latter will come as the business grows.
BTW, if anyone saw my post about the website as to whether there are any patents pending on the realtime music, I would appreciate a response.
Thanks to all for your listening to my long-winded post. No criticism intended towards anyone. Just a little "cheering-up", I hope.
Best to all,
