Charles Knowles new letter to the Advanced Photonix (API) board

My Note: I just saw Charles Knowles latest letter to the API Board which he posted on InvestorVillage. It's relevant in my mind to the proxy vote, so I am sharing it with readers, so you can make up your own mind. I don't know Dr. Fogelsong, and by reposting this letter, I do not attest to it's accuracy. I share for your information, do your own due diligence.

(Also read my friend John Anderson's insightful comment to my earlier post, which he could not post for technical reasons, which is found at the bottom of this post, in the comments section)

Letter to board this evening

I think I emailed you Doc's response last year that he would be on the board with no compensation until API is profitable. That is still his position. 
In reference to the part of the call with Lance Brewer, that I do not remember, about the experience of large institutions not having relevance to a small entrepreneurial company, we continue to disagree. But even if there was any merit to your argument Doc has been and /or is on the boards of 4 small companies:Medoworks Inc,(revenue 1 million/year), Michael Barker Corp(BKR) (revenue 500 million),Cdex Inc. (revenue 20 million) and Stark Aerospace,Inc ( revenue less than 100 Million). 

I think all but Medoworks were on his corporate experience. 

Unless your arguement is that too much experience, education, and political influence is bad for API, then Doc still is willing to be on the board as an additional board member for no compensation. I once again ask you to do a complete exam which would require an interview. 

Thank You, 
Chuck Knowles
