Jess....thanks for your support and of all things my intentions were NOT to start a quarrel. Most of all, perhaps like a lot of people who closely follow this company, I need a place to:
Share Be respectful Throw ideas around Learn from others Voice opinions Ask questions Get reinforcement and reassurance Basically be a congenial Ariad Investor community where we ALL have skin in the game
Let's face it, this have been a very complex situation with a lot history, turmoil (drastic drop in pps), an activist investor (Denner), turnover on the BOD, an industry with a history of volatility, an ideal target for a buy out, a huge short position relative to Market Cap, a small cadre of products and development that are immensely important and I am sure a lot more that I didn't mention.
Thanks, Jess for the offer to dialogue with you, Vid, Pura, Sully, and many more who want the same. Also, I would absolutely love civility and to make all feel welcomed and not alienate nor be disagreeable either.
I propose a reset of sorts where all can be respectful. In no way, am I comparing this board to IHUB and it is the responsibility of all to make it better, a source of exchange and not a competition of who is right or wrong.
IMHO with respect. Mark |
