Mike: I just checked in with Yahoo to see if your buddy cddilo responded to your earlier rampage. I was amused to see this comment in his response: "Those guru's were much more knowledgeable than I about this company so I bought into the hype." Gurus who were much more knowledgeable about the company? Who the heck is he talking about? The primary cheer-leading poster over there doesn't have a clue about the marketplace that FSTW is in. He even said so himself. He was hyping the "breakaway gap" and William O'Neil's trading strategy. And, he was supporting the stock for himself and his clients with wild projections to get more readers to buy in. Anybody who didn't see that from a distance wasn't paying attention. Now cddilo is blaming FSTW for not following through with the cheerleaders' wild projections? I guess cddilo didn't pay enough attention to those who actually know something about the company's marketplace, its history, and its management. Isn't it amazing how one's perception of a company can be positive when one's investment is making money, and then the company becomes dog doo-doo when the stock price retraces? Live and learn. Unfortunately, sometimes that can be costly. I wonder what the people who listened to Breakaway on his radio show appearance, and his clients, think of his picks now? I wonder if anybody kept track over there of who estimated what price by the end of Q1? It would be fun to compare their estimates to the actual price at the end of the quarter. Speaking of that, how is Hank's "6 to 18 month" time frame coming along? When did the clock start ticking on that? September? "Never a better product, never a bigger pipeline". Quoted from a prior conference call. COO Simmons said during the recent conference call that the pipeline is getting much bigger. It must be looking pretty good by this time. Seems like contracts should be getting signed any day now. 'bout time for a PR, don't you think? TED
