I ,even though I've put in enough time on this board to make a sound argument on Joel's retort, wouldn't because we have people here who know much more than I about what POET is.

What I'm trying to say is this, Joel never heard of POET before this past week or so. We have been discussing this stuff for more then the past 3 years, and living and breathing it everyday over the past 6 months to protect our investment. We've learned all about POET whether we wanted to or not by virtue of being here

Joel is probably a busy man. (other then concerns about POET). His response to this board was over the past few days that could not have allowed him much DD, just enough to scratch the surface. Obviously he knows semiconductors, that's his job.

But I ask you(and him) do you honestly think in the limited amount of time he had to research POET, maybe only an hour or two, that he could come up with even a haphazard shot at a contarian point of view of what POET is?
