Hank, I am going to try this again.... Call me old fashioned but I like to see a positive year to year increase in net earnings before I invest in a company. And rightly so for you. I respect that approach to investing and wish you good fortune. As long as one recognizes that the opportunity to get in on the "ground floor" is lost as the market capitalization will have reflected the decreased risk for this type company. The willingness to undertake risk is a very personal thing. I don't "hate" GUMM and I don't have a vendetta against you or anyone else on this thread. I simply think that you and others are in a fantasy world when you make speculative statements as though they were fact. I think you mistake faith for fact in some instances. How much different is Howard's belief that Zicam will be a household word to your belief that it is a fad. They are world's apart and neither is fact....only faith. GUMM is NOT a sure thing and anybody that thinks otherwise is a complete and total fool. Says you! If you are correct, you will have the right to crow about it to your heart's content. If you are wrong we will reap great financial reward. I am willing to take that risk. I have the right to argue that point on these threads just as much as you have the right to argue the opposite, whether I have a position or not. I could not agree with you more.
