To all Alydaar SI Investors and maybe more:
The following is a list of ten questions sent to Mr. Gruder's office at 7:30 am today. They are your questions summarized and focused to facilitate our conversation tomorrow. We can use it as a reference, Consortium Question #, and it should enable the conversation to remain focused in key areas that impact the long term viability of our investments. If this works, we have a means for future conversations. Thanks for all the calls and support to this endeavor. WE have a TEAM. To demonstrate our team work, please ask questions and refer to our list of ten. If you need to embellish, it will be easier with a reference point. Also, in the future, we could offer our expertise and wisdom via the consortium.
