Well after that post I feel I have at last begun to get near to understanding your viewpoint Scary. You're this board conscience, a reality check against unbridled enthusiasm or blinkered hope.

I for one need to be brought up occasionally in my rose tinted view of POET, but it still does not explain how you can denigrate management’s performance so vehemently based on a few upsets, many of which are just your value judgements.

I believe the evidence shows that these guys are working their butts off, they are working in an environment where factors can change daily to which they must adapt. Their focus should not be share price but the delivery of chips that match the industry changing potential created by Geoffrey Taylor and his amazing team of techies. Get this right and the markets will follow to our mutual benefit.
