With all due respect, Don, there's no need to get personal here. My concerns about FNTN's offerings are legitimate indeed. To wit, nothing that appears in the mission statement that the company includes in their previous press releases are exclusive by any means. I mean, as it pertains to technology. And they have never claimed to have a proprietary scheme that'd set them apart from other potential rivals in the field. Video, security... Take them one by one and research them. You'll see that it's nothing that another telecom couldn't do with existing technology. I do my DD in technology, particularly in the electronics sector. After all, my professional affiliations allow me to learn about such technologies early on in the R&D stage. Be it from official sources or peers. As far as FNTN's product offerings is concerned, I am yet to see something come out of them that is truly promising. That's why I may sound skeptical at times, though I do hold a position. I came aboard because I like the concept proposed. What frustrates me is the absence of substance (no trademarks, patents, etc.) in their claims. Nothing wrong with that. What I find wrong, however, is for folks to "hype" a stock in the absolute absence of supporting facts. And that's what some people in this thread have been doing day in and day out for months now. To make matters worse, as soon as some dissension is felt, they bail out and start another thread. To these individuals, I suggest that they wait diligently for the kind of factual intelligence reports that would support an optimistic outlook for this stock (read: hype) before making their whimsical (and possibly erroneous) observations in an open forum like this. Alas! Unless they're willing to accept even more dissenting opinions from what could be more prudent investors like me, or the guests to SI and the thread that you so disrespectfully call "dunderheads" and "lice," for that matter. Relax, Don. There's no need to lose your cool over people's honest opinions. We are all entitled to it as much as you are, whether you like it or not. That's what SI is all about. If you seek a thread devoted to only positive comments regarding FNTN, then I suggest you set up your own. The Internet is still big enough. Besides, you can always partner up with Siemens.
