Vip. My .02 again. I'm entitled <g>. What's fundamentally wrong? Well, I'll tell ya' what's fundamentally wrong. The BOARD OF DIRECTORS are fundamentally wrong. I've been saying that since February 15, 1997 very loud, and very clear. I tried for an Internet Proxy Fight. I lost. A few of us (Paul, and BP and Salah) put together a "white paper" and "hand delievered" it to these "vermin". These sycophantic blood-sucking VERMIN. Since then, private emails have "flown" back and forth, and back again telling them how f*cked up they are. Their employees are very frustrated. I cannot blame them. We have asked for senior management's "show of faith" by asking repeatedly for them to "buy" their stock in the open market. I have used whatever, and as much influence I have (which is not a helluva' lot with what media contacts I have) ... and I have a few (they are as perplexed as we are). So, I can only conclude after all of these endeavors that my assessment of John Young and his merry band of slime-bucket VERMIN is correct.
That is, they are not only self-serving, but are hell-bent on the destruction of this once-proud "major" player in the IT industry.
I'll say it again (for the umteenth time) -- Every one of those rats that leave is worth "two bucks a share" - instantly! So what do we have? 5 (sans Schmidt?). So right there, that's Ten Bucks to the current price -- to 17!
Alphonse, you wanna call me a nutcase? Go ahead. Doesn't matter at all to me. BUT --- I would like to ask YOU one question if you don't mind:
How much MONEY have YOU made shorting Novell? You NEVER got around to telling us all that little tidbit. Are you a "high-roller" or what? Or are you just shorting this with "cookie-jar" money, eh?
Oh, and BTW, I can assure you I got 130+ grand tied up here, and same for Paul, and same for a lot of other people. So, tell us, are you playing on the Dollar-Five (cheepo) table, or for the "big-time" $$$?
Inquiring minds would like to know.
Joe...<Think about it logically, if I was playing with "nickel-and-dime" stuff, why would I be here this long and doing what I did...>
PS: At least Rod McPhearson has some class. As a matter of fact, I happen to like him, and Nadim Nando, and Dave Lethe, and a lot of other people here that short or trash Novell.
And, as other people have said, don't you think it's kinda dumb to be shorting "this" stock when there "ain't that much left of it to short?" |
