alright now for the other part of my post:

In terms of promoting your invesment, I agree with Sculpin. While I am a cautious optimist on sonomax, I think they will do well. How cautious am I? well Ive got 10% of my portfolio in this company, so while I believe they will succeed, I have to be realistic and see the risks involved in this company. I must say that they have done well in appeasing some of my concerns from when I originally decided to invest into them by getting rid of most of their debt, and getting some very good outside help in the form of Levine consulting.

As a shareholder, i am an owner of this company. This doesnt mean I have to work just as hard as Nick Laperle and co. who owns 10% of the company. However it does mean that I have to put some work in to help this company to succeed with my 0.001% ownership. (this figure is not exacly accurate but a figure of speech)

So what can I do as an owner to make my company succeed? Well like Sculpin said, i can tell people about it. If they are smart they will want to know the good and the bad, and I will tell them. After all, i do have a belief that this company will prosper and make money, that why i bought it, and thats why im telling people about it.

I can also do my best to explain to people on various stock boards why I believe im onto something good, and hopefully they agree and want to be owners too.

and that is why I believe its important to share information with each other, because otherwise some people could be left out and miss a great opportunity
