Ann: Trading Halt, page-35

MikeLoveMachine, I've been in ADN for a very long time with a large position. I have had many 'come to Jesus' moments where I've had to make a (hopefully) objective decision about whether it stacks up as an investment - regardless of my position - because if it doesn't then it has to be sold. I have spoken on many occasions to all ADN executives, and continue to do so, as well as former CEO Bob. I compare notes with many other holders - but at all times I try to stay rational. It is not easy. I am delighted to hear opinions and views of people that do the work and know what they are talking about. Many people that post on HC are, sadly, clueless. I don't mind that and I don't mean to be nasty, but I do take offence when they offer opinions that are just totally uninformed and often disingenuous and that sees other HC readers jump at shadows and second guess. I have spent hundreds of hours on ADN, reading, thinking, talking, pondering, and then doing it again. I have concluded that I am IN. I don't think I'm guessing, I don't think I'm speculating and I know that until we raise the $100 million, it's all hot air, so I could be wrong. But on the balance of probabilities, I am in. So in direct response to your comment, I absolutely do not listen to opinions from people who are uninformed. I am not deluded, I still worry to some extent, and I will until we get the funding. But to me, it stacks up. This is not financial advice.
