Well, folks. Here are some answers to questions given to me earlier; * Yes, I am an investor, but to a very limited extent (1000 shares); * I bought a few, because I made money on Laser Friendly, and again on Gaming Lottery, but never because there was ever a real "business" to support the stock....only because I had heard that the principals were experienced promoters; * My input comes from people who have worked in close proximity to the current Diversinet players; * The senior management team at Diversinet, to the best of my information, have never successfully taken a product to market.....their experience is all in custom application development; * The newly appointed CEO has no successful track record in the software development business, and may have had some negative experiences in this area; * The board representation is interesting, but it is doubtful that Bill Gates is a personal supporter of the enterprise, at this time. Some of the board members may have relied on others when accepting the role. Proceed with caution....enjoy the ride....but keep your parachute strapped to your chest. Hype is hype.
