Thor, I haven't been over here at SI in quite a few moons. I read your last post twice and cannot figure out what it is (if anything) you are trying to recommend or what you really want as an outcome. Rhetorical questions - yeah, exactly right. Rhetorical questions do not require an answer, and it's appropriate, because you don't want answers. They aren't really questions - in your case they're pronouncements.... they sound all thoughtful and articulate on the surface, but substantive? - hmmmm, it was more like trying to eat jello with chopsticks. Lots of activity, but little feeding and definitely no meat. The [not very] closest you came to the concrete was to say:

***the approach is to get Jensen first to wrap old business and bring to closure what he is responsible for making a farce***

Sorry - I have no idea what that is supposed to mean. Does it mean you want his apology? Does it mean you want the business shut down? What are you talking about? What do you want?? I have no idea what it means.
And you talk about given Jensen "chances". What the heck is that about? What would "giving him another chance" mean? What would "NOT giving him chances" look like? "Chance"? What is a chance? The remark is meaningless.

What I do know is that a certain sort of individual looooves to bitch here and over at RB, but they have very little if anything to contribute in the way of constructive criticism. Maybe it's because they have no interest in anything constructive. I think they (you, too Thor) just enjoy bitching - because it FEELS SO GOOD! If the stock went to $3, it would either be not high enough, or you'd bitch because you would now have to pay more tax, LOL. Do you have an agenda other than enjoying the sound of your own sarcastic adolescent remarks? WHAT DO YOU WANT from Global and what do you want Jensen to do about it? Is there ANYTHING specific you want you'd like to tell us about? If so, can you articulate it clearly (and maybe with a little less attitude for a change)? E.g., are you a stockholder here with tangible concerns?
Finally, I'd like to add that although you speak at this forum with the airs of a nabob, in truth you are palpably and measurably uninformed about what has occurred "in the last six years" and more to the point, what IS NOW occurring right before you, although you see not and hear not. Perhaps your reliance on protracted charts and ignoring events is analogous to the example of those who prefer reading tea leaves to facing their shortcomings and doing something about their lot... or, then perhaps your eyes are focused only on the countenance in the looking glass and your ears dedicated to none other but your own voice. I am uninterested in your smug sneers at me or MY company (I, too am an owner). I have been paying attention, and for that reason, I know that you do not know...

Not rhetorical questions,
Scott
