*Re:<<Mad? No way. Amused, maybe.>>* I don't see mad as much as maddening, Terry. You have made more of a case than perhaps was ever needed to have been made. Some of us perceive a bias that you deny. I have found it easy to ignore the Bobsay ramblings because I have kept to my decision making parameters. I hope Buddy and Hank have done the same. The value of a thread is, as you suggest, the exchange of ideas. Each of us must not only consider the information but also whether there is an agenda from the contributor of that information. That caveat makes most of the information on these threads useless to investors. Perhaps Richard finds value in some of your disclosures as they might apply to FSTW. Folks get about as much as they give on these threads. You have found an awful lot of pertinent information on CRM. Thanks for that. I wish I thought your motives were purer. Talking down to Hank because he can't parle techie doesn't add any value. The thing he understands perfectly is that top and bottom line growth will generally result in a favorable investment. I don't blame him for being upset with some of the smugness on this thread. If you meant what you wrote, that you would be happy for others if FSTW were successful, then why not let him enjoy it without analogies to "cheerleading". You certainly have proffered enough evidence to the contrary that your conscience should be clear. If the market environment were brighter I would be considerably less guarded about this and other investments than I am. My concerns have far less to do with RTB's ability to deal with MSFT and ORCL competition than with a rapidly changing investment milieu. Fortunately, FSTW seems poised to survive whatever environment we find ourselves in...until conditions improve. That's the advantage of no debt, money in the bank and real customers resulting in positive cash flow and real earnings.
