Thanks for another analysis on the stock re-purchase program. I'm afraid that those who hang on to their simplistic "borrowing money to buy stock" chant are either too lazy to even try to understand what you've spelled out or too dumb to comprehend it. If you own a couple of puts and want the stock to go down, there is no reconsideration, even for facts. It seems that they think ignorance is alright and are not embarrassed in the least when it is displayed. I salute your effort to try to educate them, but it is not worth it for me. It is hard to imagine these young men wallowing in their own sloth and justifying it for the rest of their lives. I'm not going to waste my time anymore and will just skip over their posts. It was painful to read them anyway.
