Off R.G. Board Drake...loved your analogy and admire your courage. It does take some courage to stand firm in one's decision, when many are deriding same. Still, there are a lot who don't post and who know this company is a great investment, and who have the patience to wait it out. This R.G. thing is a boogerbear, started to discredit TSIG by most likely shortsellers connected to Canadian traders, or who knows..possibly just people who thrive on controversy and discord. Otherwise, they'd get the h-ll out of TSIG and shut up about R.G. It's a free country and they can sell anytime they want. I don't buy their line of bull...sorry. And yes, tarp, I will be left standing, but not alone....there are many strong longs here and I don't think they are going to be convinced to sell by people who have criticized TSIG in one way or the other from the start almost. Sane people don't hold on to stocks they have such doubts about. You'd think there were only two bb's to chose from and TSIG was one of them. Well, I don't care what anybody says...I know a good thing when I see it. When my oranges are green, Idon't yank them off the tree and eat them...I wait 'til they are ripe and a bright, lovely orange. Some people have no patience in investing and they want a stock to soar in record time. Many bb's fly up and right back down...I prefer to hold for the long term the ones that reflect value in the near future not ten years from now, and that are realistically priced. It's late and don't want to put anybody else to sleep. But I won't sell and I will be patient, and one day, will be very glad that I made this decision. "VIPER"
