Re: Jerry Gach's observations on binary-polar-IPMCF disorder.

Here, here, Jerry! Your post was just the compozine I needed for IPM motion sickness and low-signal-to-noise nausea.

First, sympathy for the devil:

1. Is walter anderson an idiot? Is walter anderson the Antichrist? Most importantly: has walter anderson's representations of declining share price been borne out? We may squirm or bluster at the answer to the last question, but, then, facts are inconvenient things. Walter gave me no reason to take action on his maunderings, and I told him that withholding information that would cause me to sell my IPMCF was contemptible. However, IPMCF is down appx. 40% since walter darkened our doorstep! Stupid is as stupid does, people.

2. If you are going to ignore the IPMCan'ts, then f------ ignore them! None of us write with Churchillian power, Wodehousian wit (in spite of the Greek chorus "ROFLs" we give our buddies), or spell-checker accuracy. As we say in the Unix world:
flame -grammar -spelling > /dev/null

2a. June 23 is the first trading day after the AGM. Lay off with the "dontcha even know the date?" garbage.

2b. STOP WITH THE G--D---- "YOU ARE HIM AND SHE IS YOU" S---!!! EVERYONE! Some of us don't have unlimited time or internet access, and SI is brutally inefficient as it is!

3. Whatever other strengths IPM management brings to the table (which are sufficient for me to add to my long position), Furlong's promise of exciting things in May was, at best, short of our expectations. I accept (as a project manager and technologist) that delays are inevitable, especially in this sort of research. But IPMCF and we cannot have it both ways. Furlong ought never have built expectations this way.

4. INTC-bashing is thread drift. Cut it out. This nonsense drove me off of C-serve Invforum. In the interest of full disclosure, I paid for my IPMCF with my INTC profits.

I consider many of you who may feel put out by my comments to be friends. I hope some of you will still believe so. I am venting to relieve my frustration about the drop in IPMCF price. Consider ye, in the belly of Christ, that you are doing the same.



Now for my real target. . .
