Why isn't the world bidding up our shares like we think they ought to be? Personally I just think most punters looking for investments are not necessarily all that tech savvy, not enough anyway. They go by what they know has worked in the past. These are challenging times; and not times for thinking too far outside the square. We should all go with what we know, right. Play safe. And all the big guys know best surely? We'll follow the leaders. How can we lose?
I'm reminded of a story I heard years ago about a particular rock band being formed. They wanted it to be a "supergroup!" The best of everything that had gone before. It had a number of pretty prominent and highly accomplished musicians in it, all with their own singular styles, so many individualistic characters in fact that people said that they wouldn't be able to work together for 5 minutes without clashing all the time. Plus they wanted to create a whole new kind of sound. Even other rock groups said it was a stupid idea that could never work for long. One even described the situation as being likely to go down like a lead balloon. The band liked that term and they called themselves Led Zeppelin.
The first track on Led Zeppelin 1 is "Good Times - Bad Times". When WBT gets its first commercial customer launching a significant product that will probably occasion a bit of a reminisce about the bad times when after every bit of good news for the company the parasites come and try to nibble the the SP down to where they want it. The last track on that side is "Dazed and Confused". I hope we're all happily dazed and confused for all the right reasons when multiple products start to appear featuring WBT ReRAM.
Side 2 begins with "Your time is gonna come", which makes me smile a little, and the last track is "how many more times", which makes me smile a whole lot more.
I guess I can just hear the sounds of instruments tuning up in the distance. I hope Led Zeppelin's precedent can set all us Weebiters up to enjoy the trip. GLTAH!
