Good morning everybody, I keep visiting this site and RB everyday and greatly appreciate the constructive and objective ideas and suggestions most of you guys make which I find very interesting and mostly educational. However, we have a situation here, we are in this stock and the status by all means is dissapointing to all shareholders, especially the ones like myself, who have been holding for quite sometime, like two years. I keep looking at this situation as the following: We have a ship with 5 or so crew memebers and a captain. The ship is holding our investment or merchandise, which we are very concerned about. It is in the middle of the ocean and the only way to know what is going on is by what we hear either directly or indirectly from the captain, who is facing a lot of problems in his journey. We on the other hand are sitting on shore and monitoring the activities of the captain and what decisions he is taking during the stormy weather alone with his crew. We know the ship has enough fule to bring it to shore, however, we are not there with him to judge and guid him to what he should do. He has achieved the first mission of crossing the difficult period (SEC Listing) we now are telling and forcing him to take this ship to its destination ASAP without knwoing what he is going through in his journey. We seek info about the status of the journey from him on daily basis, today he tells us the skies are clear and the next day maybe facing a storm. The fights and challenges he is going through on daily basis are differnet every day and require differnet tactics and hence pose differnet obstacles and delays to his mission. Because he did not get the ship to harbour the day promised with all the goods intact and the profits anticipated, we are now calling him a liar and a no good captain. We want his resignation and demanding that he leaves in the middle of the journey and mission. We are also calling this mission a failure and the goods rotten. If we think about it what we are actualy doing is the following: 1 - We are discrediting the mission, and interested buyers on the other side are losing interest in the goods and mission value. 2 - We are asking the captain to leave in the middle of the journey without knowing what he is going through or doing to make this journey a success and more so the challenges he is facing over there. 3 - We are killing the moral of the captain and the crew. YES LETS GET RID OF THE CAPTAIN AND THE CREW AND MAYBE THE SHIP WILL REACH SAFELY ON ITS OWN.. The other choice we have is to back off for a little and let the captain manage his situation from his prospective, this way we may have a better chance of getting the ship to harbour and goods delivered to its buyers. The fact of the matter is the captain and crew have not given up or bailed out and are showing us interested and sincerety to take this ship to its destination safely. This is the way I see the situation for people who are still interested in this stock, as for the others they can bail out now, as they new from the begining this is a BB risky stock and they took the risk. This is my 2 cents in this matter. Best to all TMK
