Hi John,

I am currently holding LMGA. I bought TCI Cable (TCOMA) which spun-off TCIVA which was then merged with Liberty Media as a consequence of the TCOMA/T merger. So if you thought valuing LMGA was difficult try holding onto it as it is transmogrified over the years. I shouldn't complain since it has been very profitable on paper but I see now that I should have sold earlier this year (as with everything).

The assets appear valuable and the management (John Malone) is shrewd and intelligent. However, I have no idea how much it is worth. If you learn anything I would love to hear it.

On another note: is anybody interested in COMS for the spin-off play? Until today COMS was trading close to the cash in the till. Granted they will not be profitable for another 2 quarters if management is to be believed but the spin-off may be worth enough to make up for the uncertainty. Thoughts? I own a medium position currently most of which I bought in the last two days.

Happy Holidays,
Terrapin
