Obviously, the difference between the ceo(note the no caps) making $180K or $1 per year has much more to do with showing his confidence in the long term possibilities of the company than it does with the strict bottom line of the company. He, to me shows little confidence in the fundamentals of the company by accepting a significant salary at a time that the company is achieving little and has a market cap of under 10 million. THE MARKET thinks this company stinks--we(shareholders of +- 20% of the outstanding shares and posters on this board) think and hope it still will perform--and it may still.
