Bill, I do not see what is there to gain by branding VLNC a fraud. In my opinion VLNC is no more a fraud than Amdhal's Trilogy and Stan Ovshinski's many venture which have both gone through a lot of OPM and shown nothing or very little for it when everything was said and done, yet both were honest hard working business people. If your thesis that VLNC is a fraud is correct, you must have an underlying assumption that all current activities are carried on with management implicit knowledge that no product will ship. I doubt that is the case, and I have some doubt that astute business people like Shugart and Berg would not see through that. Shugart himself is an expert at getting all the way to the edge of the abyss, seeing failure eye to eye and coming back victorious. It would not surprise me that his involvement s another devil daring mission like that. I just do not agree with the bulls on this thread that assure everyone that such victory is assured.

You must also understand that some of the bulls on this thread have committed major portions of all their assets on that one bet and will find it very difficult but to paint an extremely bullish picture, just to support their own position and not because of any sinister plot with management.

It would help your case much more if you based it on factual evidence of the company current "starits" (and such evidences are ample) rather than anecdotal "connections" to a stock letter writer or another and the fact that some posters have not had an iota of criticism to voice against management's missteps in the past, IMHO.
