gbh,
I too am a GNET shareholder (along with other nuts) and I think it shows a great deal of wisdom on their part to bring somebody on board that will give an alternate view. Someday the nuts will be expected to show the same type of fundamental soundness as other investments and when the bubble does burst, the survivors will be the ones that didn't ignore the fundamentals.

If you have a board of directors that all agrees and sees the world the same way, why not just have a single person board? The idea of bringing a contrary voice on the board will help me to sleep better holding my GNET shares.

i was not trying to be coy or rude.i do not feel it is appropriate for me to lobby for votes online as i am not running for election in a democratic sense.prospective board members do not lobby to get onto boards they are asked to join . stockholders decide to agree or disagree.gnet is the owner of this forum and i happen to write a daily column for them ,so my views on many subjects are well known.this also creates an unusual circumstance nevertheless on the subject of gnet i have decided not to make any public proclamations and stopped posting on the gnet thread.this may not be to your liking but it is the way things are.hope that helps.
