Re: Varian's Idiot Lawyers The reason many of us follow this thread is because we've exposed stock fraud, much of it ridiculously blatant. The perpetrators thumb their nose at the legal system and the SEC because they know that a) the fines will be far less than the profits, b) they can pack up shop and start over with near impunity, and c) even is a worst case scenario there's virtually no chance of doing any jail time. In Varian vs. Delfino and Day we have two scientists and patent holders whose "crime" is that they went over the line (albeit what appears to be an imaginary one) in criticizing their ex bosses. Their trial was full of, IMO, horrendous legal decisions and strictly on that basis should be voided and reheld using a different judge. Yet these two are in actual danger of going to jail. This is totally absurd. Even more so considering the courts won't even put stalkers and harassers in jail unless they've first inflicted some sort of bodily injury on their victims. If anyone has any good ideas on how to potentially stop this insanity I'm listening. - Jeff
