Onkel Tom, what a great way to sum up the share market you have.

I've been on a few threads where long-term holders have held different views. Along the journey about half have nurtured their doubts while the rest have been enthusiastic - sometimes excessively so. And, as these companies slowly drifted into oblivion, I always held the view that it's the optimists who get to enjoy the ride.

Not saying it doesn't pay to be open-minded though Mbc. I bought into a new rubbish disposal technology about 4 years ago. After council trucks dump their loads into a hopper, this disposal system separates plastics from metals and turns all organic matter into compost. Can save up to 90% of waste going to land-fill and do it in an environmentally friendly way. Even generates its own power from methane gas and sells excess energy back into the grid. It would go a long way to help solving the world's rubbish problem, yet where is this technology now? Well, where else but obscurity? Fruitless management guided it nowhere. In the immortal words of one of Peter seller's characters - "like derailed train very quickly getting nowhere."

Yes, I believe you have to have a good product, but in the long run it's management in whom we put our faith. And our hard-earned too! I'm impressed with WBT's technology. Should it all go according to plan, then my focus will be on management. Dadi's contacts could be the decider here. But hey, that's just my opinion.

In the mean time Onkel Tom, one of these days it would be nice to land on easy street, even if it is on those mud tyres.
