I expected the show to air in Minneapolis at 10:30AM, but it didn't. I just visited the TSIG thread and learned the show is possibly airing at 11:30AM in most markets. Bummer, This means I missed it, as I didn't attempt to check again at 11:30CDT. About the review: I sort of hoped the show would have been more business oriented, but it sounds more like a promo vehicle. The show is apparently not aimed toward business technicalities. I didn't picture Jon as a long haired hotrodder, but recognize that enteurpreneurs don't usually fit into the shirt and tie category until the company grows and adds a couple levels of management. The description also suggests Jon is mechanically savvy. I already assumed this from his Cheever/Unser connection, but today's race track backdrop certifies it with me. This is a good trait to have when ordering machinery and starting up production lines. I expect production ramp-up will probably move smoothly with Jon at the wheel. Shoe.

Any other feedback on the show would be greatly appreciated. It sounds like the conference call was more informative and that the ten minutes of TCBG on TV. Program may not have been worth watching to obtain new info (relative to what we already know). Ten minutes is not a lot of time. The objective of this program broadcast is to make a big splash introducing the company to new investors which is not all of us. Did Jon comment on how production of product was going (how many machines up and running, etc...) or anything new??? I still would love a VCR tape of the broadcast, if anyone wants to E-Mail me (fgillera@cisco.com). Thank you Frank
