My post was sincere, because you were sincere, and

My post was sincere, because you were sincere, and quite a few others felt the same way. It makes such a difference when management and investors act like they are on the same team. You'll still get some tomatoes and eggs (makes a pretty good sandwich with some locatelli on top) thrown your way from time to time, but I think we oldtimers appreciate your diligence and honesty. You don't come on this board to speak down to us or insult us if we don't understand all the ins and outs of company strategies. You come here to honestly communicate. That's above and beyond my experience with any other CEO, and its appreciated. That older gentleman could have been our grandfather, father, uncle, brother, or good friend. You treated him the way we would like to be treated. His concern was legitimate. He wanted a chance to do something with his GNBT/NGIO investment while he still had the chance. Who couldn't appreciate that. We're glad you did, too.

For the non-Italians on the board tomatoes and eggs was one of my mother's go-to lunches. Eggs were cheap and we picked the tomatoes at the farm. The locatelli cheese was purchased in a big wheel and the whole neighborhood came to buy their portion.
