I want to go on record I am not complaining for the sake of complaining...I really feel a lot more could/should have been done. We are in a very fortunate position...profitable, fast growth, a bunch of cash in the bank, great management at the top...BUT, this is a public company, and public opinion matters. We are simply flying under the radar of most. That is the rub that angers me. I own a large position in this company for all the reasons that make this company special. i will defend this company at almost every level. I have seen the very lean times, when the stock traded by appointment, when NOBODY had a clew what this company would become...and now I sit here in total frustration, because I really feel we have not taken advantage of the position we(gnet) is in...I would never claim to have been able to do a better job...but I do understand Wall Street, and we must play by the rules it makes. COVERAGE is not a luxury, it is MANDITORY!!!Without it you will fall unnoticed in this .com world. In my mind there is no reason in the world for this company to fall unnoticed. We are a very rare breed of quality, the investment community needs to made aware of that..PERIOD..we can all argue about how to run this company, but I feel that job is in VERY good hands, we need to make some noise..make people aware of us..Look at the numbers, look at our position...this stock is a hidden gem just waiting to be discovered.

What are their numbers..earnings? profits? market Cap.?growth rate? Come on rampmaster, you know this game isn't about the numbers....It about INVESTOR PERCEPTION. Why do you think you want that Morgan Stanley coverage so bad ?...it doesn't change the numbers a bit. ..... For whatever it is worth..Russ is a great guy, with incredible vision, and the smartest person I know.. oh, the PA thing...it's not the fact that he made the investment that ticks me off it's that we have this cash and we have done sooooo little with it. I am going to assume that "the smartest person you know" has a major say in the decision to have so much cash and do soooo little with it. I share your frustrations my friend, but accepting the messiah into your life and then immediately questioning his decisions is just plain wrong. <gg> I will pray for you - #26

I'm sorry, but GNET is not worth $200. It is barely worth $50. I am tired of internet companies being valued to the stratosphere. Let them be judged by the MONEY. It will make for a far stronger investment thatn nose bleed valuations that can't be sustained. GNET is well positioned to be valued by traditional standards and some day $200 will be cheap. But right now I want revenue and earnings to truly validate the price so I can sleep quietly in my hammock on the beach. Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience, Patience! jb
