Hi, Stan--
I don't think you'll find anybody attacking you here. We want the story about this up and coming company to get out in a lucid and sane manner. I feel no need to hype or exaggerate HeartSoft's future potential.

There is one person on this thread that is more enthusiastic than the norm, I'll grant you. Tracy is the only person that talks in terms of cartels and moonshots to $5. I would prefer to see slow, steady stock growth, based on the company's fundamentals.

But fact is, this company is likely worth a lot more than even today's current stock price indicates. Granted that Ben might have gotten the word out on what was coming together last year, when the stock price was dropping to the depths of 12.5¢, but I believe Ben has a good sense of priorities, and by doing what he did then, we are seeing the results now.

Sales: Yes, one single school district will not enable HeartSoft to buyout MicroSoft. Some school districts may be worth more than others. For example, there is one school district that HeartSoft might sign whose contract would be worth circa $100,000. That is only for the first installment of Thinkology, there is a second chapter in the works for release this fall, and with the 1st installment (Clarity) meeting with such a warm reception by the market, I see no reason the second set would not also be in equal demand.

There are ~22,000 school districts in the U.S. There are 200 school districts in Australia. How many more in Canada and the Pacific Rim might be looking for quality software for their expensive computers?

As for rave reviews, Thinkology has already gotten them from leading educational magazines...a five star review from the #1 'zine in the field, something that less than ten percent of the software looked at by them wins.

Ben has stated elsewhere that the audit done in preparation for becoming fully reporting required the holding back of the last three 10Q's...we will be seeing them all by the 15th of February.

As for financing...it's a good question, the answer to which I am waiting for, also.

Thanks for asking the questions, Stan. I enjoy answering them.

Cheers!
Rick

Stan:

Welcome to the thread. I hope that no one "flames" you. Caution is good, even necessary. It gathers an audience of curiosity seekers, and if the stock is "real", brings in the next wave of "educated" buyers. Two comments:

1) Did you check out the link that Rick posted reference Ben's comments about the release of 10Q's?

2) Did you talk to Ben?

If your concern is "hype" than it is time to talk to the man at the helm.

Take care,
Paul

Stan:

IMO, Ben Shell is very legit, and has not really hyped HTSF. If he appears enthusiastic, he should be as the CEO of his company. If he doesn't believe who will? Maybe he is not as subtle as many of the CEO's I observe being interviewed on CNBC, but they too are properly presenting their company's in the best light possible.

Realistically, HTSF is a very small company with minute revenue and market cap. Any shareholder expecting a wild ride in share price to even the upper single digits is likely to be disappointed. This may be an excellent long termer with the potential for gradual development and a reward for patient shareholders.

There is only one hypster on this thread and he just recently arrived.
While he's entitled to express his views, HTSF would be alot more believable to a new potential investor if he would tone it down a bit.
