Dixie: I know RG, C. Krell, and J. Guild, but who are Amy Grashel and Jeannie Lewin. Could you provide a quick work-history bio and current function of each person at TSIG when you get the opportunity?

Thanks, TS

Rich,

Just to confirm for the rest of the thread... the e-mail you posted is valid. I have spoken to Neil on the telephone on a number of occasions and have verified his commentary directly. And, yes, he does essentially have control of about 2,000,000 shares... and they are not for sale. In fact he is buying more as am I. My feelings regarding TSIG have not changed one iota. IMHO, the company will be the leader in its sector with time. Those of you who are looking at every tick are missing the "big picture" of TSIG. They make mistakes like every other business, but, IMO, they learn from their mistakes and "fix" them... for their benefit as well as ours.

IMO, we will see PRs coming out shortly and in a blitzkrieg fashion. IMO, we will see a fully functioning CompactConnections site sooner than we anticipate. You certainly now know more than any of us what is transpiring at TSIG... but you can't tell and that's the way it should be. Those posters who continuously bash TSIG and are supposedly long are suffering anxiety and nothing can be done about that. They will have to learn the true meaning of patience... especially when dealing with a startup/turnaround company. Patience, IMO, means more than a few weeks or months. Sure it's frustrating, but I rely on my own DD and my own experience. Each person has to do the same for themselves. But certainly they are not helping TSIG with their posts. If they can't come up with positive critiques... then in my opinion why post? Just to vent and hurt themselves further?

Rich... "and this too shall pass". Hope you're having a good time down on the campus.

Best always,

Marty

<<<<Perhaps Rob Gordon's greatest fault is his
enthusiasm. He thought deals, websites and other things could be done quickly. He learned a hard lesson. Nothing ever goes smoothly. There are always delays. Many of you have jumped on him for not meeting deadlines,some of which were created by you on SI because either you heard what you wanted to hear or did not seek clarification of statements made. >>>>
Gee..i wonder who has been making up all these pretend deadlines?,
It sure as hell wasnt me...Now sing along children...Oh I Wish I Was In The Land Of Cotton, Blah, Blah, Blah...Look Away.Dixie Land Look Away.. Dixie Land.....

There was an interesting article on Page One of the Wall Street Journal Tuesday (Oct. 13) that immediately made me think of TSIG, Gordon especially: called "Inside the Dream." It focuses on a CEO who's young, filled with vision and ideas, and struggling with the problem of focusing in to bring a viable product to market. The centerpiece of the story is his dealings with an investor that he's wooing: the investor likes the story and the CEO's energy, but he's nervous about the sprawling nature of the company's business plan. Will they or won't they focus, commit, and get the job done?

The article's really good both for revealing the life of a deal-maker and for spelling out just how very hard it is for an up-and-coming company to do the big deal.
