The meeting starts on common ground: with the BinaryTree president, Tom Schramski, laughing about how much hatred there is in the U.S. Linux community for Microsoft.

It was that experience that drove him away from developing for "those nefarious guys" in Redmond, and toward Lotus Notes.

I went looking for information about BinaryTree.com and here is some of the interesting things I found.

Web site does exist and appears the company is a real company. However there information, at least about the company, doesn't appear to be valid. Go to the search page and search for "Investor". Go to the article titled "Investor Relations - Style 2". This indicates they are on the NYSE with the ticker symbol of "BTC". This however is definetly not their sysmbol.

Next I went looking for information on "Tom Schramski" the president. All I was able to uncover was that before joining BinaryTree.com in September of 2000 he was with IBM for 10 years, as part of the team that rewrote OS/400. When was he a FoxPro developer? Is OS/400 written in FoxPro.

I don't think any information from Mr. Schramski or BinaryTree.com has any validity.
