RE: Not sure of your logic here NoviceI was just thinking finni#@%$off, (in a perfect world) that we could be the I.R. department for this co. We the shareholders could drive the price up, simply by raising our sell bids, everyone has to agree though that we try to bring positive results for the co. This to my understanding is not stock manipulation, but more of an adherence to the shareholders standing firm on there belief of the price (#1) of the stock and (#2) our belief in the companies value. I understand that there have been some poor decisions made by the powers that be. However put yourself in their position for just a brief moment. Sure there have been some quacky decisions, but they are learning as they go along too. Remember there are scam IR and PR firms out there too, that promise the moon & the stars to everyone, at a cheap price. Thats what this co. can afford, they can't afford the big guns yet.
I agree on other topics of your postings as well, but I believe we should (mabey) try a different approach in order to recieve some better results from the powers that be over at XST. Have you ever had a nagging spouse (girlfriend/boyfriend, wife/husband, etc) always telling you to do it this way or that way, always threatening you? That does not promote a positive response in the reciepiant. They just end up feeling useless and beaten, never really sure they made any good decisions...EVER. Ahh, its a viscious circle. Mabey if we called up the J-Man over there and said ..."I know about the pressures you have had in the past, and if I could offer some assistance or if he (they) think of anything that we (shareholders) could do, to help get this stock up, and the value of the co. up. Other than that all that negative cr&$p only wears him down. Sure they goofed, but let's offer help, advice, assistance, anything, but negative stuff.
I know alot more about this co. than I let on. But I honestly belive they have some truly great ideas, products and a future to look forward too. Remember this famous cliche "It only takes one bad apple to spoil the whole damn bunch". I say we only have good apples here, lets weed out the bad ones before they spoil the rest of us!
Said my piece, Hope everyone understands my point (I hope)
Have a great day, look forward to a prosperous, healthy new year for all of you,
