Don, I spent a bit of time out your way during the dotcom buzz. You sound like you have tad of dotcom fever lingering.

I'm not as concerned with the credentials of the people as I am the science behind the product. I'll review everything and, usually, if it's not something harmful, I will try it. It's easy to find ways to try and lot of things that may help. Even if something helps one, it may not help someone else. With such limited resources available it is important we all seek out any assistive devices, ideas, etc. that may provide comfort or convenience for any of us. Throw enough at the wall, something may stick. Just remember to move the couch away from the wall.
As a Finance and IT exec, I appreciate your diligence. I would not grant them credit nor would I invest in them.
