Excellent analogy ZPaul! Long term investors looking beyond the day to day trading patterns and focusing on the long term big picture will be the ones receiving the greatest rewards over time, and in the end game!

Fortunately for us Mark Kay is an end game visionary and is doing an excellent job of stair-stepping SFOR thru the process, in a very efficient manner, undeterred by the noise made by the bashers, flippers, manipulators, and whiners! He is focused, and has led us thru a period of great adversity, bringing us to where we are today. His goal is to continue the journey to greatness for SFOR. We as long term shareholders are surprisingly lucky to be along for the ride! As you mentioned, unfortunately many don't realize it, and/or it doesn't fit into their personal agenda/trading strategies! So be it! We shall hold, and enjoy the gold!

Thx again for sharing with all of us, and acting as the true north of our compass!
