I was pissed off during the C.C. when I heard how much "FUN" everyone was having at SSPI during Jink's time there as boss. To bad owning this stock hasnt been very much fun. Going to the beach---watching your kids smile--enjoying a nice meal--etc. constitutes FUN. Watching a stock price shrink to almost nothing isnt FUN.

How it happened that the guys who left became worth ten times as much is an interesting question. Lost opportunity is the hardest factor to place in a financial report there is no way to measure this. Can we speculate that there may have been other lost potential opportunities? perhaps the direction of sspi has been hobbled by a too narrow of a view or technological nearsightedness which lacks an overview and a greater sense of a bigger picture of where this technology is going. Look at what has happened to Apple Computer, same company new management with a clear vision. Some how sspi has get out of role of a niche player to be a commercial enterprise in its own right, it is possible that new management may be able to grasp the opportunities in a much more abler way. sspi has to evolve into new areas which will require new management people perhaps this change in CEO is the beginning of a new phase of growth for the company.
