    In fact I asked her about it tonight and the "man" part is derived from the latin "manus" which means "hand". Thus to use chairman for women is correct and not at all sexist. Chairman is gender neutral. Another woman chairman I spoke to a while back suggested another synonym for chairman being "leading hand". I shall continue to call them chairman be they men, women, trans or confused.

    This has not unduly bothered him previously...

In dutch for example the position is known as "voorzitter" which translates to "leading sitter or seated".
    I note that there is a drive to change the title to just "chair" and this to me is preferable to the horrible sounding chairperson.
    But I digress, this must be the best news for PEB in a long time...
    Hmmmm. Interesting
    Are you both women or is one of you a woman?

    Cool Du côté de chez Swann

    This debate takes me straight back to Abidjan in 1997 and whether it should be

    madam, le ministre
    or
    madam, la ministre,

    and I had thought we sorted it then.


    Good to see that Mr Swann will finally have time to make extensive use of his deck.


    Best Wishes

    I doubt they will generate enough free cash flow fast enough to get away without one.
    Wow,talk of another cap raising already
    Someday the company needs to make money from its product, rather than its shareholders.They are already well on their way to their target of 100mil from them---There better be on heck of a payday at the end of this road

    It will be interesting to see if this flurry of activity can will the SP back up again

    Haha. I had to have a bit of a chuckle at your comment. WTBC is my alter-ego formed out of a typo. He is not my estranged cousin from Hastings as some people believe. Also *sycophant *rabbid. Spelling wasn't my strong suit.

    PEB have a lot to do, but I'm planning a further build of my personal holding in early July.

    Do you expect the PEB CEO to be Nostradamus Balance?

    Also, when are you going to admit your secret undisclosed holding of 100k+ shares in this stock?!

    October 2013 :

    "Pacific Edge Chairman Chris Swann says the funds raised will provide funding to implement the roll out of the US sales force in pursuit of achieving $100 million of commercial sales of Cxbladder in the United States within five trading years.

    “The Board is fully confident that the funds being raised will be sufficient to cover operating expenses until Pacific Edge achieves profitability."

    Notice the operative words - 'FULLY CONFIDENT'?

    Of course the market expects rightly and with full justification the CEO and Chairman of any company (which has a begging bowl out almost every year to raise funds from shareholders) to work towards a plan when the company will achieve profitability and positive cash flow.

    NEXT.
