Eric, this is not for you, but Randy Mac seeing he has mentioned my name twice, here and on BoBz. I will endeaver to explain why myself and lot of other people are signing up on SI using handles.
You asked why people use handles that don't identify them. A little background..
When I joined SI in 1996, (oh I know what my profile says, but I used to be someone else in another life) everyone used their real names, including me. After many encounters with the strangest, most frightening people ever, a decision was made to become just, (gypsy) for security reasons.
Do you realize how many cases of stalking, harassement, and even death threats that have resulted through encounters on SI and other chat boards.
As a private investor, I am not obligated to reveal personal information that might endanger me. As a public official of a public company, it is in your best interests to reveal who you are.
I think I have been THW's biggest fan here, but I have been accused of hyping, lying, of being two or three other people. I think it is good to hear from the CEO of THW, but my only concern was the forum you choose to do it through.
I believe it will be good for you to post here occasionally, because real information, instead of rumour and gossip is always better for both the company and investors.
That's all, Randy, just because I use a name like "gypsy" doesn't make me any less real than John Q Public. When there is a need, I have no reservations about revealing my identity.
