Well well. What a month.

The good has mostly outweighed the bad. Results of the meetings, talking with directors and signing new ones on, infrastructure, financing etc were great.

Most of the meetings with potential customers were great.

Some skepticism has disappeared, but perhaps an equal amount has appeared which is being fended off in various forums: people seem to be nitpicking at things I said over a year ago versus what is happening today. THINGS CHANGE, PEOPLE.

Some people have got on my nerves and I've used coarse language to tell them what's on my mind. Some think I should apologize, but I don't feel I should. If people don't want to read coarse language on my personal website, then they are welcome to not visit. I've even had a disclaimer to that effect on this website for quite some time.

All I want to do is build an ISP and make it the best that it can be. Why would people attack me for that? Are they trying to deter me? Reasons financial? Sponsors? Something else? I don't know. There are very few things that will stop me from launching this service, and if some people don't like it, they can all sod off.

As for my personal life, well, that has suffered a bit. It should be back to normal soon enough. Hectic schedule, a bit of stress and lack of sleep haven't helped.

And transportation? My poor insurance company is going to think I've had the unluckiest trip ever - and they'll hate me for all of the ticket price differences that they have to cover & a few extra hotels for alternative transportation having had to be arranged on numerous occasions at the last minute.

As is the Airline who delayed my baggage - I think they're going to have to compensate me roughly the same amount as the ticket cost, and now Air India has cancelled some of my flights - the domestic legs - because the staff (although they were supposed to have returned to work) aren't ready to go back in to full swing. So I've re-booked on another airline to go directly to KUL tomorrow... even the best laid plans sometimes need modification!! But so long as I get there, that is the important thing.

Oh well. Good month, overall, and I may be back as early as the 21st or 22nd of May for a couple of events in Delhi, and I may or may not return to NZ - we'll see what happens.
