Calling someone SIR is NOT kissing someone's AZZ! It's called being polite. In my profession, I have to call a lot of people SIR, so I am used to it. Bowing down? Don't see anyone bowing down to anyone here. People are just showing appreciation to him for speaking about the latest happenings with the company. I have not been invested in a company down here (OTC) where the CEO did anything remotely equivalent to what he does for his share holders.  People did ask him questions, he answers them, just maybe not to the liking of some. People want it all and are just not happy with a slice.  Again, He doesn't have to say BOO!!!

Happy Halloween!
