That's the trouble with great science & technology and inexperienced management paladin.

Firstly you don't know if either of them will work out.

Second you find out that one or the other is working out but can't decide if it's worth holding because of the one that isn't working.

Third you come to the conclusion that it is the thing(technology or science) that is working and the economics could make the pain of holding worth the teeth gritting. 

Then you get to where we are today. You own shares of this company that has some promising science that you have owned for to many years but the science is just darn intriguing. You want to sell it, you can't stand the management but the potential upside just won't let you part with it. After you grit your teeth and plug your nose for a while you turn a little blue in the face and have to come up for air just for sanity sake.

This is geared more toward science as any technology would have been leapfrogged years ago. I also must say that advances in technology over the last 20 years has helped this companies science continue to move forward.

Today is just that healthy breath of air being taken by a few that were are a little bluish in colour. As long as everyone keeps it civil and don't attack one another its all part of healthy discussion.
