Thanks guy, it's a jungle out there, and I'm glad there are others who are trying to remember the awesome responsibility we have.
Thumb and pinky longhorn alumni? 'Que? I'm a UTK guy (orange and white), but will be part of the doctoral candidacy program at UT Austin (burnt orange and white) this fall.
BTW, I'm teaching both our sons to be gentleman by the way I treat their mother, and also I'm teaching them to "never take more than they give," as the line from LION KING's "Circle of Life," espouses.
Good luck everyone today, long on Iomega, but I'll take another bargain too.
One last thought...someone said "if we don't pay attention to history, we're destined to repeat it," hopefully a lot of the internet enthusiasts will listen, MF included, and will be careful with their predictions when they aren't privy to all the information or the entire vision. I recommend we all take note for the rest of the year. Hopefully too, they will analyze what KE did (R&D and rebates), and surely include this in they analysis of where the earnings finally soared and hit. How many other companies didn't do as well. Look at Apple, HP. Apple lost 44 cents and went up 4 points, because losses were less than expected. Now on the other hand we have earnings without visionary variations factored into them (R&D and rebates) and how will IOMEGA be treated? Soon, IOMEGA will no longer be an illegimate cast away! Yet one last word of caution, we have to be careful we are not our own nemesis.
Andre, always nice to be called a gentleman...scholar? I try.
