O K - courtesy of some of the finest minds on this THREAD - I'm going to make one conjecture re: the info on Rogel. IMHO, Rogel is one of the strongest divisions we have (the "link" to JVC is potent and will be revenue producing). Now, if I were Rogel negotiating with a neophyte company - a "newbie" so to speak, I too would have placed a clause to protect my company - something to the effect of "if your stock goes below .20, then..." Smaller companies (as I previously mentioned) do not have a Theodore Roosevelt BIG STICK with which to negotiate. The acquiring of Rogel, I believe, is solid and will bear fruit. Innuendo of wrongdoing on the part of someone at Rogel is unfounded speculation at this point. We all (Note I use the first person pronoun plural - not the second) WE are frustrated with the price of our stock vs. the tremendous volume and evident potential. We are all looking for one simple answer. It's as if we need a scapegoat, and we need it now. However, I do not think that scapegoat will be found in Rogel. I reassert that Rogel remains a tremendous asset to ECNC. Since, verbosity seems to be my pattern today, I want to reiterate that Tom has all the questions so many of you are understandably raising (At least his fax machine does and his E-mail and his receptionist). So, I'll cease my hypotheses which I rendered because so many of you P Med me and I felt an obligation to respond as I await Tom's response to me. Well, I thought Sharon and I would rent a few videos tonight, but it looks like after dinner, I'll be digesting not only the food but all the other data that has been presented in the past 25 posts.
