one of the previous post I believe it was John, rightfully explained what TSIS was all about. Therein lies one of the problems, TSIS each quarter brings on a new service that in their words will be substantially more profitable down the road. Well that could be the case, but when we get down the road we have again changed the service we were previously offering. We must remember there are a number of companies several of which I have mentioned in the past that are doing basically the same thing that TSIS has done or is doing. We should also remember that a very large percentage of companies are doing what TSIS is offering internaly. this obviously causes a dilemma for TSIS, in changing their services, I know, some will say adding to, they are unable to show consistent "quarter after quarter" earnings from a previous services.. The dilemma obviously is that the company must continue to do the research and development required so that they may be able to provide the services require by their customers. Another dilemma is that the company must provide services that are being requested my their current customers, this obviously is hard to do for a small company like TSIS. But I must say they have done one thing that I completely agree with, that being adding staff, from my seat I cannot determine if this staff is adequate and or competent, but I can agree that it is the right thing to do at the right time.the thing obviously the company must guard against is educating their customer to the degree that the customer will determine he is better off by providing the service internal, TSIS has to a degree protected themselves by furnishing the equipment to the customer. I believe we all should understand that the mentality of the "puffer fish" is alive and still being nourished at TSIS. I might add with some justification one does not have to be paranoid to understand that with out the protections of patents ones ideas and equipment are extremely vulnerable. Many decisions will have to be made in the future one of which, which in my opinion will come sooner than most belief , is the value of the company for a hostile are non hostile buyout.. Either way the benefit of that decision will be rely By us the stockholders. 91 degrees and sunny in South Florida
