well... the "10X" price part is nice if he brings that skill along!...8) btw, knowing how to grow in a major way is a good skill to have. Many companies are fine to a certain size then go stale. I don't know the key turning points in dollars of revenue, but I think UTEK will have to go through about 3 of them to "catch up".

Richard, <<During Bruce's tenure as CFO of Tencor, the company went public, went through a huge increase in stock price (more than 10X) and merged with KLA. That wouldn't look bad on anybody's resume. Whether getting him constitutes a "huge feat", I have no idea.>> Your comments reflect my sentiments, also. Ian responded to my questions about Bruce saying how much value a great CFO can produce. I guess that leaves us to wonder how much better UTEK's finances will be managed with him at the helm. I have no idea. I will measure the feat by the pudding that is produced. We'll see. D
