Max,Cathy et al-I have spent the past six days doing dd on CNTR and, in the process, have read each of the posts on SI and Yahoo. Max is certainly correct about the action being on the Yahoo thread. That "action" includes the very best and worst of Yahoo-hype,spam, cheerleading, vulgarity, bashing, rumor-mongering, and paid posting; along with information, analysis, intellectual exercises, and good, solid apropos links. As I don't frequent Yahoo much, I am intrigued by the formation of a club (CLASS) where the enrollees are disclosing their # of shares held and cajoling each other to be long and strong. They are even talking about directly accosting management with support (and presumably, demands). Max, I know that you are well aware of this phenomenon and I ask you and others what they think of this. Do you see this as a situation where the strong can lift the weak? Or is it more likely where the emotionalism being introduced will have the weak making a contribution to the strong? I like CNTR very much but as of tonight I don't own any interest in the company. I have a lot to learn about the management and the competition before I could invest. (I am also adverse to piling on a train going this fast) There are certainly fewer of you here on the SI thread, but IMHO if Yahoo would give us that Kaka bird the quality would be hands down over here.
Best regards,
