There have been some very good points by Skiboard, forhand, biorun, m w m, pandora, and a few others lately and I'm sure everyone appreciates this. I am personally not totally disappointed with today's
update as it is quite comprehensive and if a newcomer were to read that as a stand alone article, they might well get some decent vibes from it. I am however disappointed with the timeline failures that have been experienced. The difference between newcomers and us old timers is that we have had years of disappointed expectations and we have the right to comment on those disappointments. Management has been exceedingly slow and naive on how to put all the puzzle together, as well as being the worst communicators that I have ever experienced. If they would communicate with us with any degree of logic, we could forgive a lot of naivete but when they don't, we get frustrated quickly as we feel deceived as if they could give a care. They are actually cutting of the hand that feeds them by being so negligent and arrogant, and now apparently not communicating directly with shareholders.
As much as we all have the right to grumble, we still want this to work out. I cannot see management letting this one die off as they stand to gain fortunes if this takes off so that alone should encourage them to pull more rabbits out of the bag.
If it failed, Howhee would stand to lose the most as well as Geraldine. Howhee looks like his nest is well feathered thru his profession so logic and urgency is most likely less important to him when it comes to cementing deals that have real 'balls'.
Yes, they are in a precarious financial situation as the expected royalties, milestone payments and /or other revenues have not been forthcoming.
The financials should have more notes attached so that the average Joe could get a better idea of the situation, but then that might divulge too much.
Anyhow, the best to all of us with this one. Now we have to prove HCD's prediction wrong again.
BeAlert, and lets hope that our summer ends with shouts of joy for SIRONA.
Here's a cut and paste that should give us some insites:
In Celtic polytheism, Sirona was a goddess worshipped predominantly in East Central Gaul and along the Danubian limes. A healing deity, she was associated with healing springs; her attributes were snakes and eggs. She was sometimes depicted with Apollo Grannus or Apollo Borvo. She was particularly worshipped by the Treveri in the Moselle Valley
