Seth, is it really a matter of posting a critique? Most of the lurkers who lurk and are still here (both on the board and invested in FTEL)are, in my opinion, with us for any one (or more) of several reasons. Here are just a couple: 1. They have recognized FTEL is a bb stock, but accept the risk in hopes of garnering a share of the reward. 10 pts. 2. They appreciate the dd done by those who started following this company, started the thread, whose information has attracted other interested investor/speculators, and have enhanced the true worth and value of the information with their own, indepth research into the market, technology, company, and personnel aboard this "speculative play." 30 points. 3. They have researched the track record of the posters on this thread (the bulls and bears) and are comfortable with their reputation (both views); and joined those who "just want to make some serious money." 5 points. 3a. They are too lazy or "trust" their instincts that all the above statements are true. (-)25 points. 4. They enjoy the congenial give and take on this thread. 1 point (Hint -- this is a trick question). 5. They believe NO SINGLE company will capture the VoIP/DVG market, and they believe FTEL's hardware and software quality are in line for a serious (revenue gathering) piece of the action. 10 points. 6. They believe FTEL is going to provide "silver bullets" to be used in this war, and that alone will make some serious money. 5 points. 7. They have evaluated the bulls and bears and give quality marks to both, yet have weighed the evidence and decide they'll hang around for THEIR piece of the pie. 10 points. 8. They know who is providing factual information and those who are providing prospective possibilities (an eye to the future, as opposed to the past). 5 points. 9. (see question 8 above) ...and who is providing historical information without so much as calling the company (1-800-frankln) to gather some news. -12 points. rd
