Patrick, I can understand you and others are upset. I was also very upset, maybe for different reasons than yours, but upset just the same. I think that this experience will help us in the long term. I think many of us have fallen in love with the company because its' a big part of what we do. Most of us are into technology and many of us are gamers. We know more about this company than probably most every other company we've ever been involved with including the one's we work for. We've all developed a somewhat undefeatible optimism that we are right and everyone else (the market) is wrong. This stock slide into oblivion has put the fear of God into us and this is good. It's time to take a step back and re-evaluate those reasons that made you invest in the first place. I've done this myself but I'll post my reasons some other time. Don't let your emotions taint your perspective; maybe we were overly optimistic before and now we're being overly pessimistic. Joe C.
