Thanks for the complements.....I am no Ronald Regan.....So many posters today who got to the heart of the matter, plus what amazing memorys.....

Dan did say that he is a Republican and after the meeting Steve Wagner and Dan were playing with each other about the confrontation during the q&a....

Since i attended a conference with Jim Turley in NYC last year i NOW know how a professional acts.....Rick was very serious during the meeting...He was not looking to get any laughs.....Just my opinion, but Rick seems like he has been through the wars before and knows how to handle different personalitys......He is the face we need to have.......

If was very obvious to the BOD how much respect Rick has with the shareholders....I was amazed that C.Johnson seemed to be pleading for respect, saying that he now spends countless hours doing PTSC business....

I will be at the Paulson conference in two weeks....I also spoke to Mr West and he said that PTSC will have their own room/4 sessions during the day...

I talked for a few minutes with Dyna ? from IBS / can't find her card....She was polite but did not say much....

Just from my notes.which i am having a tough time reading, i believe that Rick said that his goal was to get a 50% stake from institional investors............So i will go out on the limb and predict that RG will want to stick around and finish the job that he started....Larry
