This has been an outstanding thread. Kudos to Mack for starting it. And appreciation to both Scary and fairchij for their excellent replies. Oh and Rainer too. Hell, everybody was great.

Now this is what I'm talkin' about.

Hmm I realized also... well maybe I would say, I get the feeling... that a significant number of members have a much larger position within POET than I do. Although I think I got as much as my very conservative broker (wealth advisors as they call themselves) felt comfortable with considering a Venture stock.

Actually I just thought of another risk... time. As one gets older time seems to move faster. If things aren't rocking and rolling within the next year and a half, I will be seriously bummed.

In closing I would go back to this being an outstanding thread because, although it's central premise was RISK, I still came out feeling positive.

Yeah Baby!
