I think the following statement is critically important:

"Since i attended a conference with Jim Turley in NYC last year i NOW know how a professional acts.....Rick was very serious during the meeting...He was not looking to get any laughs.....Just my opinion, but Rick seems like he has been through the wars before and knows how to handle different personalitys......He is the face we need to have......."

IMO, this was a critical piece of the puzzle that has been missing through this entire process. DP was a lawyer plan and simple. The man never exuded characteristics of a CEO. He may have been a great lawyer and fine person but I never had the feeling he would champion the company long term. JT was another story. His appointment almost caused me to sell my shares. I felt like the company had taken a step backwards and it concerned be greatly that he was chosen for the next phase. I'm sure many of you work for, or have worked for, a public company like myself. There truly is an art and skill to how a CEO interacts with shareholders and the general public. JT's constant joking was inappropriate, unprofessional and smacked of inexperience. The 1st SH letter issued by RG was very excelerating and to some degree stunning coming from a company with the history of PTSC. I truly hope he will be a "Permanent" part of the plan. As we all know there is no substitute for experience. That of course is no guarantee of success but certainly increases our odds. Thanks again for all the SHM information.
