You are certainly right, but you may not forget that investors retail and professionals are the source of cash and therefore the most crucial point to the management (besides making those drills hit, hit and hit again). If the management doesn't make sure that the investment comunity is happy, the source of future funding and the survival of a company is very likely at stake.
Because of that it has to be a equal partnership between investors and management, and not a mangagement with its nose in the skies. But that said, it has to be informed investors which wants to participate and certainly investors who dare to ask the crucial and maybe critical questions - it is their rights but as well their duty..... It is not wrong to make demands/ask questions if it is for the best of the company and the investors.
The management is "managing" our money and of course has an obligation to inform properly and in a timely maner. No management has ever survived on holding information back and telling the investors that they are stupid asking questions.
This is not pointed at the NOT management, which has allways delivered information and seems to have taken the investors seriously. But i feel that people asking questions after yesterdays answers, and people beeing upset over the apparent change in communication form are entitled to ask questions and do certainly not have only to rely on the reputation of the management - as alwas do your DD, and thats asking questions, questions and questions...
