I do wish JDS would be more forthcoming on their customer base. Recent annual report does break things out by region but it would be nice to see a few big names. I think JDS could use a boost in the PR area, particularly to introduce such a fast growing firm to US investors. The company is reasonably well known in central Canada, but out here in the land of milk and honey I don't think she is nearly as well known. I agree the company needs better public relations and marketing. Perhaps they need a shake-up similar to NN's --- someone to step in as Alan Lutz has done and lead the company into the real world of Wall Street expectations. Heck, they're not even listed in the U.S., so I guess it's my own fault for taking a position in a company virtually unknown to Wall Street. Even so, if the board wants the share price to improve, they should insist on improving those areas that are weak. When's the annual meeting? That might be the time to express these kinds of concerns. Later -- Pat
