Here are a couple of charts... and again, lizking, one more time, the history of this board shows that by and large, people have been welcomed here, even with negative opinions, IF there has been some good, logical reasons behind whatever view they held.
Also, IF you look about the #23000 or so messages (in July 2000 after the mention of the merger) there was discussion as to whether or not to close this board, and go to one of the other INSP boards, or change this board's name, and continue with it. We stayed, and changed the name. Feel free to see everyone's comments over the past few months. It's one of the beauties of SI as it is today.
My guess is that most of us feel saddened, upset, and lied to, if not misled, by the PR and written materials surrounding the merger. Most of the long's stayed, because we believed what the two heads of the companies relayed to us via those communications.
It is also my guess that most of us have a longer horizon and time frame than 3 months...(from October 12 thru Jan 12 is 3 months!!!)...
But I think that a good word for anyone who hypes a stock under $5.00 now, and has little desire to follow any of the company history is......"whatever".....
