Gary, about the Other Thread,

There are two conflicting agendas here: (1) promoting Iomega with discussion of news and competition, and (2) day-trading issues for people who actively follow the stock and its options. These two are in conflict because as it is now, the thread is no longer new-user friendly. Prospective new Iomega investors can't possibly filter out all these day-trade messages to get to what they need. I remember coming here a long time ago, when the thread was filled with channel checks and why *I* should invest in Iomega. Now the thread is filled with what happened to the stock within the last 10 minutes.

I think, IMHO, we need to return this thread to the "Long-Term" investors to discuss fundamentals, and create a new thread for day-traders. Other stock groups have successfully created this type of separation, and it's a natural separation. It's to all of our benefit that we maintain two such thread to attract new long-term investors.

Don't worry, news will have a way to propagate to both thread.
