<I tried honestly, sincerely, and in good faith, which is more than I can say for him. >
There you go again CB! Attributing motive to me that is incorrect. Every time a coconut! You really should examine that aspect of your attitude.
You shouldn't presume bad faith because I make jokes about photovoltaic wings, poke fun at your sacred gender and even more sacred ethnicity and sacrosanct legalese in response to your personal comments - I did suggest it could be fun rather than personal.
You have no reason to know how much effort and expense I've put into Globalstar [and QUALCOMM over the years]. It really was philanthropic investing [which I have explained is NOT altruism, charity, or simplistic ethical investment].
That's why I'm not too worried by the loss of my money in Globalstar, other than the wastefulness of the loss [in terms of hours, weeks, months and years that people like Mr Adrenaline have poured their hearts and souls and lives into creating a global communication system which has so far failed in its job due to mismanagement of marketing]. Oddly, it actually makes my life easier! I don't have to try to figure out what to do with the profits or reallocate that capital.
A man I used to work with in London and I used to [in 1987] discuss investments and whether to buy or sell and what the heck to do with the money. Another, younger, man was totally bemused and said "Look, you guys get the money and give it to me. I know what to do with it!" He was joking - it was a partly serious, partly fun discussion.
I hasten to add that I would prefer to have had great success with Globalstar. I'm just saying that it's no big deal that my little Tonka Truck crashed. We can only eat one loaf of bread at a time and sleep in one bed. Interaction with family and friends costs almost nothing.
In good faith, sincere and honest, just like you. Now, I have to go - the weather has cleared. It's spring.
Cheer up. You can think gravity and marketing work any way you like. You don't have to agree with me. But if you say stuff which is incorrect, I'm happy [not today] to try to set you straight.
