I have no interest in silencing anyone unless they are totally out of control (name calling and the like). I'm just asking that some exercise some self control, and consider whether what they're posted makes ANY contribution. Ranting over the deep dark past is not what I call a contribution. It is what it is, and it ain't no more. Nearly everything he has complained about has been corrected as possible, or is in the process of being corrected. Why harp on it endlessly? Crying over spilt milk or, probably more apt, looking a gift horse in the mouth. And relentlessly, the same message, implying that things are exactly the same. They're not, and this is blatantly clear to most.

But think of the perception of the prospective investors, visiting here to get a feel. They read "toxic financing" and that the BoD is out to screw retail investors and is totally incompetent. Will they read further to discover that the toxic financing is no longer an issue, that there is no true verifiable evidence that the BoD is out to screw retail NOW (or ever), will they recognize that we have a brand new CEO and new high-profile techie board member, or that the entity that once held stock and/or had warrants for a very large percentage of the OS are about to be down to about 2%? I could go on and on (as everyone KNOWS). Gosh, we do have big money in the bank, and some patent interests too!

Sure, it may be of some benefit to know where we "came from". Some very small benefit. We're not there any more!

We have so many positives going for us, it's actually quite astounding. Real possibilities that get some attention - just some. It's just frustrating to see quite little discussion of the future from some who want to direct all attention to the past.

Look at the last few pages of posts. How many had a DISCUSSION (not a PACER or other link) about our present or future? How many were about the past that doesn't really matter any more?

So now I'm done with my rant....

Perhaps it's time for a post series identifying our desired future, all possible obstacles to our desired future, and all the possible positive things that could/should happen toward achieving our desired future. Maybe limit it to the NEXT six months. Each item could be discussed/debated and put to bed. A summary of issues and opinions could be recorded and made available for review.

It'd make this board PRODUCTIVE, for existing shareholders in assessing our investment as well as for potential investors to see if a glimse of the overall picture displays an investment that is their "cup of tea". All the cards, going FORWARD, on the table. Something new comes up - assess the possible impacts and adjust the assessment summary accordingly. It'd almost be like a cooperative effort in running a business for mutual financial benefit. The ultimate message board. Many participatants having an equal say.

Just an idea, and perhaps Agora could lend a hand by providing a "spot" here for the results of the effort, capable of change as events unfold (weekly updates?). But I'm fairly sure the effort would fail due to perceptions of "control", unless Agora could step up and provide an unbiased scribe.

Hopefully we won't need such a thing and will have things happening so fast that we couldn't possibly keep up.

Another novel.....
