Sula,
Why do you have to introduce strife where there was previously none? ABP brings up many good points and tempers a lot of the speculation and dreaming that takes place on the board.
Ie; "This all augers well and is but one factor that rather defies the doom and gloom we hear from the likes of A Beautiful Poem whose negativity seems determined to create the picture here of PTI being on the edge of disaster..."
Post history from ABP:
"...it's as simple as this, management comes though on their projected time lines delivering on promises or we lose our investment. It is that dire. This stock has been played unfortunately and there is no more chances. It's do or die. In my eyes this is a full out gamble at this moment in time for the SP. They will be severely punished with a huge sell off including my shares if management can't deliver on their targets."
We are on the Venture Exchange and trading at $0.81 and we've been diluted further and further in the meantime. Those are facts and our money could also have been growing somewhere else (also a fact). I am also a shareholder here and this share price is a total shame. However, many people have been burned pretty badly by the heavy speculation that can sometimes run rampant. Sure, there may be "dots" but seven degrees of separation does not count as due diligence or potential offers/partners. I (a POET shareholder) had lunch last week with some guys from Synopsys -> does not mean anything. The leads and contacts that management have are invaluable, true. This is not a direct reply to your comment, only a supporting paragraph. POET, long and strong.
