Blocking him was probably a good strategy, but the

To show off his intellectual prowess this morning he made reference to "Occam's razor" thereby suggesting that if OWC was a going concern, investors would have all the answers they needed to fund the company's research. For those that are not familiar with the term "Occam's razor", it can be a useful problem-solving tool that is used to eliminate improbable reasons for certain events and thereby arriving at a conclusion more directly and quickly. Ironically I've tried to apply the same principle throughout my entire life. Who needs a complicated formula when you can get to the answer more quickly!
The reality is that in life, when dealing with any issue, medical issues in particular, the obvious diagnosis and treatment is not always the answer. We have all heard of the horror stories of people being misdiagnosed. The same thing can be said when it comes to investing. If every investing decision could be reduced to a slam dunk then I would want to know the secret formula.
The fact is that when it comes to most research, especially in a field such as what OWC is involved in, there is no quick answer or route to the promised land. That is the nature of the business that they are in. The notion that you can simplify the route by taking short-cuts is just plain stupid, especially when it pertains to scientific based research endeavours.
Many of us are fully aware that investing in a company such as OWC is not a slam dunk. There is still a lot that needs to happen and go right. Funding is just one of the many hurdles that the company will be faced with. I am, not unlike many of you, pot (no pun intended) committed when it comes to my OWC investment. The truth is also that I am committed to the many friends that I have made on this board. Hopefully some day we will have a chance to meet, celebrate and reminisce in a way that is positive.
