It's been a roller coaster of a weekend. I see a lot of emotion, and yes bickering amongst some of our more promenent posters. I like most do not like the disrespectful way that the BOD treats retail, but have not been convinced that an all out knock down-drag em out fight at this time would serve any purpose other than to satisfy our desire to stand on principal. Yes, a part of me says Damn the torpedos, but would that course of action be prudent at this particular time? I think that we should organize ourselves into a co-ordinated Block Vote, and serve notice to management that we are a force which must be considered carefully. In the event that a buyout offer is presented in the future we could very well be the deciding force. I don't know what percentage of shares it would take for a sucessful bid, but I am sure that the number would be greater than 60% (please correct me if I have it all wrong). As the old saying goes - United we stand, Divded we Fall! This would be our own style of nuclear deterant to keep the other guys a little more honest in their dealings with us as a group. I look forward to input from you and unemotional discussion on this idea either in the forum or by PM.- Lorne
