Sorry I got your fur ruffled Larry.

When I hear that an investor has a "no lose" proposition, with tremendous opportunity for profit, I must admit it raises a credibility question in my mind. This was the "theory" we were talking about last March... you kept saying CC had a "no lose" proposition.

They might have a greater reward probability than risk probability, but they still will lose if Valence fails completely. CC has invested in the eventual "success" of Valence, not the "failure" of Valence.

The issues of SEC disclosure, preferred convertibility, short selling history, were used in our discussion last March as we tried to determine if CC had a net long position, or was truly ambivalent about the eventual success of Valence (as you repeatedly claimed).

The theory we were discussing regarded the intention of CC in making the investment in Valence... you claimed that CC did it to make money off the variable conversion and shorting against the preferred, and wouldn't willingly hold a net long position in Valence for long. I countered that CC's major intent was to make money as Valence succeeded.
