I've always enjoyed the candor readily expressed on this thread... I think all of us were shocked and/or disappointed with Management's forecast. Perhaps, Management's forecast did mark a change in posture towards their investors. Certainly would appear they are giving analysts who now follow the stock a benchmark. Perhaps they are taking a page from their peers -- make sure you set the bar low and blow past analysts expectations at every turn. As for Management, although I can understand you investor relations concerns, how they are going about developing the product and perhaps more importantly industry relationships appears solid. I would think before you run with the big dogs, you have to take a couple of walks around the block with them first.

You are totally correct about Arthurs affect on the stock. We all have our talents somewhere. He and Susan should stay in the closet.It is totally their fault that Sand has the swings it has. It never should have been in the $3.50-4.oo range, but instead in the 7+- area. Then the news would have quite reasonably moved the stock to 10-12 where it should be. The negativism drives the stock rediculously low, and then you can't blaim investors for taking profits when it doubles or more. Unfortunately, this makes the company look unstable when if fact they have done exactly what they stated were their intentions. If you can't communicate, shut up. Arthur doesn't seem quite bright enough to see that.I have emailed him several times about this. Here is a man who quite honestly told me two years ago that he felt the value of the software was $250,000,000, $25 a share,yet seems concerned when the stock rises to $ 10-12 a share.Go Figure!!. If he would keep out of it the stock would stabalize, which would serve everyone nicely.
I think the rediculous lows are over. that would be nice.
