pmb,

I don't know if you consistently read my posts, but I have repeatedly emphasized that I am in this stock for the money. I have made some friends along the way, and those friendships are valuable to me. But ultimately, I will gain no financial benefit unless I sell the shares I hold. I have a plan to do that, and at a much higher share price than the $1.50 you suggested as the object of your hope.

Success, in my opinion will come incrementally. An order of 50 or 100 kilos is important to me, because it can be followed by orders of 200 or 500 kilos. From 500 I look for orders of 1,000 or 2,000 kilos. I do not know when the share price will actually reflect "success", but when revenues come in repeatedly and buyers take an interest in the stock, I believe we will begin to see "success" as you choose to measure it.

Share price tends to increase as expectations increase. I suspect that the increase in the shareprice will anticipate and preceed news of increasing sales and revenue. There are always new people looking at the stock with a fresh outlook. When they see the results of trials and recognize market potential, you will see buying. It will not be because they have had an artificial injection of sunshine. It will be, rather, that they have a perspective that is fresh and new, and not obscured by the blindfold of disappointment and resentment. They will see a buying opportunity and will invest in the potential of future earnings.

pmb, I am doing my best to be as objective as possible. I am not pleased that the share price is where it is. I have no desire to "pump" the stock or "blow sunshine" (whatever that means). On the other hand, I have done an excessive amount of due diligence regarding the company and the market. I learned more about this company, Beta glucan, the immune system, and the poultry feed market than I ever dreamed existed. I recognize the potential and am excited about it. I believe that others are too.

I learned quite some time ago that one chooses his own outlook. He can be negative and resentful and bitter, or he can be hopeful and positive and encouraging to others around him. I chose to be the latter.

That does not mean that I never have bad days, am never disappointed, or never recognize setbacks, but I choose to see setbacks as opportunities rather than failures. It is fortunate for me, and other current investors in Vyta Corp, that company management is also inclined that way, and keeps pursuing success, despite a history of setbacks.

I believe we are so close to successful market penetration that I can almost taste it. Does it mean that I know when it will finally start to affect the share price? No, I don't. It could be in 30 days, or 60 days or even 90 days. But, I believe the sales will continue to accumulate, that test results will continue to make believers out of even the most skeptical in the industry, and I believe that sooner or later, the consuming public is going to begin demanding antibiotic free food. When that happens, I believe we will see success as you measure it.

Finally, I've never really been fond about the notion of "blowing sunshine" anywhere. It gives a very poor image of the characteristics of sunshine. One doesn't blow sunshine. It radiates out from its source and illuminates everything it touches. I recognize that there are people into whose lives very little sunshine falls. I also recognize that there places where the sun never shines. We are happiest when we are neither.
