Is this the quiet/calm before the storm? I think so! Greetings fellow ozoners!!! Since things are "quiet" I thought I would take the time to share some scuttlebutt (navy talk for gossip) with you. Several investors may be concerned with the lack of "new posts" on the thread...I would merely point out that Brenda, Jeffrey, Jim, Marlon, Sri, Amy and others have provided valuable information in previous posts. The information is available for the new comers. Other information can be accessed on the header of the thread. It can be beneficial to revisit some of the "old posts" now and then to develop an appreciation for how far this company has come in the last 12 months. I do this from time to time and it helps me stay centerline. Consider the laundry side of the house. We know that Hill-Rom is in the midst of making a decision as to what they are going to do in regards to their laundry system(s) purchase. The system in Atlanta Crown Plaza has been operating steadily for two weeks and is working wonderfully. The folks down there are happy as can be and are thrilled with the company support they are receiving. Bill Stoddard and his crew are doing it right! The attention they are providing to the customer is on the mark. It is only a matter of time before we see the fruits of their labor. I have not been able to validate some other information that I acquired but it is rumored that Cyclopss is installing or has installed other laundry systems in Hawaii as well as here on the mainland. I will attempt to validate the info later this week. Change in subject. ************************************************************** * HOW DO WE FIT IN THE GAME PLAN AND HELP THE COMPANY? * ************************************************************** The answer is quite simple.... LEAVE THE EXPERTS ALONE AND LET THEM DO THEIR JOB!!!! What I intended to communicate here is something others have tried to express before but appears to have gone unnoticed. Repetitive phone calls not only cause a distraction but preclude the folks at Cyclopss from focusing on the things they need to do. A select few, who call on a frequent basis, cause a disservice to other investors and the company when they call "key individuals" looking for news. Because the folks at Cyclopss are polite and truly care about "us" (the investors) there is a reluctance to say the hard words. I would kindly ask that those of you who do call,"Think before you call." If you do have a question, make sure it is one that can be answered. The SEC has rules. The company follows them. It makes no sense to ask pointed questions, given the fact that the answers or the subject matter may impact stock performance. The company is not going to answer questions of this nature. It makes no sense to ask about anticipated contracts or dates that news may be released. Folks, lets be smart and responsible...if we do the ride will be a lot smoother. Take care. Captain Nemo
