FOR ALL OF YOU WHO ATTACKED ME YESTERDAY AND FOR THE LEADERSHIP: Have a moment after you calmed down and think about this: Which is better you think, spelling out fears that are out there in the market and addressing those fears with civil tongues and strong logic to diffuse it or, to hide it and live in denial. These fears that I had yesterday, were and are out there, that's why the market is not reacting the same way it reacted last week for rumors of news coming on Tuesday. As the price started to move up on Thursday for news on the following Tuesday (3 trading days before) but this time the reaction is totally different simply because there are some concern out there. Now what do you think is better? Spelling out these fears and litigate it with civil tongues to diffuse the doubts of many many investors or hide it and deny it. It will exist and continue and affect every trading day price. You will be amazed about the number of e-mail and PM's I got from people who had the same fears but they couldn't spell it out. let alone the thousands of investors who just lurk and wish to find an answer for their doubts. It was a great chance to present our stock in the public investor court and present a good solid case diffusing any fears and questions why the stock is not moving, instead of attacking me merciless like that and even attacking my ethnic origin for people who made fun of my last name. When I saw that reaction I felt petty for all of us because thousands are reading that threads and it told them that those people are not positive about their position and started to crack down and that further fed their fears with more doubts. Folks I would 've been much happier if you 've squashed me with a civil tongue and a good solid and sound logic, why? Because I am on the same boat you are on and it would 've been a very joyful loss. (if you consider that discussion as a win loss situation) why you terrorize people from spelling out their fears and calm their fears with logic. Why you have investors who e-mail me to share their fears with me but can't share with you all, Especially that you have a very good promising stock , plenty of reasons, good track record, wonderful leadership and very strong (unhealthy yet) team spirit. You had and still have the upper hand if you would ve chosen yesterday to litigate it openly and logically. you would 've won much much more investors out there who were watching by addressing their fears and answering their unspoken questions. As this team grows more and more, Your wonderful leaders should also lay out the right protocol for the whole team how to manage and react in these situations? How to embrace new investors? How to understand that not all people who have concerns are playing games or traitors or MM's or dumping the stock. Give the new person a benefit of the doubt till proven to be stubborn or have no logic or lying ..etc, instead of shooting your self (ourselves if you count me) in the foot like that. Finally, I can't help it but thank the responsible and nice responses from Macker, Mr. D, Rocketman and others who try to pacify me from that trauma and tell all who attacked me and my ethnic origin: GOOD LUCK.

I think RocketMan is definitely to be applauded for this post to Jules. We would be lesser people if we didn't allow for concerns and didn't share our compassion. In honesty, we have probably ALL bitten a few nails, and in honesty, most of us probably have a great desire to see news next week. I feel in better company when Jules can express his feelings and in the BEST company when we have someone like RocketMan who can respond as follows: Jules (8699 ) From: RocketMan Friday, Jun 5 1998 3:51PM ET Reply # of 8768 I understand, Jules. As a new investor, you have every reason to be nervous. If you had no nervousness, you would not be an investor. I think the important thing is not the nervouseness, which is normal, but how you handle it, and to concentrate on the fundamentals. I suppose we are are nervous, heck a race car driver is nervous. But the winners are those that keep their eye on the road ahead. Thanks for your honesty. ------ Trying to keep my own eye on the road and still feeling adrenalin, Raven
