I am the largest stockholder in ARDI and when ARDI is successful, I will profit the most from it's success. I am trading very long hours now for flexibility in the future. My sleep schedule is messed up due to a sleep disorder that is not work related. Of course, since I'm working hard most of the time, it means that I have to prioritize/prioritize/prioritize and that leaves several very worthy projects sidelined until 2.0 ships. I honestly believe that when Executor is a shrink-wrapped application, our sales will be sufficient to fund many more interesting projects. I love my job and I love my customers -- just wait 'til we have cash. --Cliff ctm@ardi.com
