it's nothing you can turn into a negative. It is my way of thinking that a settlement, or LARGE NEW CUSTOMER for embedded system, OR BOTH, "WILL" happen in "time." I think sooner than later. So, to express that I feel this way, I use the tick tocking of a clock (the sound a clock, or watch makes), to represent that time is ticking down to this/these "inevitable" events as time goes by. Sometimes, you can use the coo-coo bird version of sound that a coo-coo clock makes (it goes like this, coo-coo, coo-), as well to emulate the time is going by and this fits and some prefer better than others. I hope this helps! Just a little fun with you on Friday LL! Hope you have a great weekend!
