OC and ITTR,

Thanks for the replies. 

I can't argue with anyone on the points ITTR ably raise, but I can hope he's on the money.  I can only look at the share action, read this forum, and listen to Suresh and his boys more for style and sentiment than tech information. I continue to find Suresh the same guy he was when I first saw him in action in 2015. Excellent and trustworthy, but I also think he's learned a lot over his tenure as head of a public company how words of management have an effect on sharelholders and potential shareholders.

Most all indications point to a tremendous future for POET.  I'm sure most of you are at least vaguely aware of my reservations.  You would not know that looking at my brokerage account.
