N. Vest Ohr Vahlhue had this comment: 

 "Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago."

Nah, must have been someone else who said it, eh?  

When asked about the origin of the statement, Mr. Vahlhue admitted: 

"Some trees take longer to grow than others and for POET that growth has been exceedingly slow.  Oh, ye of little faith, Grasshopper!" 

Mr. Vahlhue's final words on the subject:  "Mighty Oaks form little acorns Grow!"

Shade for POET investors is on the horizon, but how far is it to the horizon?  Right now a little shade would be more than welcome, if only that darn tree would grow!  Roots are out everwhere.

Life is really quite simple, even for POET investors. 

I just want to finally sit in the shade.  And you?

PS

  Sugarmaple, I enjoyed your little bit of fun.  5% "Up" on the NASDAQ today provided a tad bit of "shade", but with low volume it didn't last long.  We will both be criticized for not providing a more serious comment about the subject.  To the critics:  Chalk it up as an example of "Gallows humor" while waiting for the long anticpated "shade".
