Oogee: But since you brought it up, to me the energy in the room was palpable. The experience may differ from attendee to attendee, because of there were about half a dozen conversations happening at the same time. But from my perspective listening in to what Taylor, Desimone and Gagnon had to say, there was a layer of energy just beneath their well chosen words that was just barely restrained. We were repeatedly directed to "connect the dots" (which may have seemed an easy thing for people who spend every day immersed in the industry, but was still challenging for many of us - including me).

With Dan in particular, we would ask (under pressure) what we thought were the best questions, but often (due to NDA's and perhaps trade secrets) we were denied the answers. This would have been disappointing if it were not for the grin and slight hop that followed every denial, as though he was bursting at the seams. In mild frustration someone asked a general question, something along the lines of how confident he is that the technology will really work, to which he replied smiling "I'm here aren't I?"

Underlined, confirmed, and sealed!

I am one of those who are not good at "reading" people, but even I could feel the air of confidence. And from an intellectual, factual point of view all the answers the POET people were able to give were right, proper, appropriate, coherent and plausible. I went home with more confidence than ever. This is no hot air. This is the real deal.

The current share price decrease doesn't bother me the slightest, except I regret to have loaded more shares one week too early in this downswing. Connect the dots!
