Thanks for the reasoned reply, Lebowski!  You and I just disagree and that's fine.  It's too late for another change in top management, I think, so I want these guys as incentivized as possible to stay and either sink or swim with the rest of us.

Perhaps I'm not looking for the same final outcome as many of the rest of you.  When I got into POET initially, it was because I heard that they had a product that would allow you to charge your phone once per week!  It was also at the time that the $70 club was in its heyday (we all use that term, but how many have actually written it - weird), and I thought that was out of the question, but if the tech did the phone charging trick, well.  Shortly thereafter, our friend what's her name became the rage - she was a joke to me from her very first post.

I've long abandoned the hope of $10/share, and I think I've stated that before.  I'd be happy with a buyout at $2 US.  And really happy with $3.  Anything more than that is, frankly, unthinkable, given all that has occurred.  I know that sounds like heresy here, but that's my perspective.  I would like to be able to turn my POET investment into dividend income of 4-5% or so, as I'm past the age that I should be thinking of retiring - shoot, and I sure shouldn't be thinking or "retreading!"
