I would like to try and distract ya'll from your personal sniping for a moment and ask a generic question.

For the years that I've been invested in PTSC, all I ever hear is hopeful optimism about it's future; (Believe me, I'm one of those people praying for a bright PTSC future). But the reality is, no matter how optimistic some of us are; no matter how hard some of us try and cheer for this company, I am constitently let down quarter after quarter; year after year. This board to a large degree has been reduced to personal infighting and sniping. In spite of certain persons here diligent due diligince on this site; apparently nobody really knows anything about what's going on with this company; (besides it's obvious consistently dismal results; quarter after quarter). And this companies trend is not exactly enspiring hope and confidence.

That all being said, my question is: What is the future of this company? Do we have anything solid to go on? In my way of thinking, the only thing this company has going for it is the MMP; and that is just unrealized potential. Will it always be unrealized potential? Will the challenges to it never stop? Beyond the boards obvious incompetence; will TPL suck us dry also?

I don't want to be negative here people. I really want this thing to fly. But blind optimism and cheerleading don't cut it. Can anybody tell me what this companies future holds?

PS. I pretty much know what to expect from my question; but listening to the infighting here is not productive for me, for this site, nor for this company.
