"Allen the figure I found was 42% long term debt."

Jeffrey, 42% of what? Do you mean that 42% of their total debt is long term? Fine, but what's their total debt? It's been a while since 2nd Q numbers, but I don't recall there being any large outstanding debts at that time. I guess we'll have the real numbers on Thursday anyway, but I'd like to know what would make someone say, at this point, that the company has "a lot of debt."

As far as the emotionality of the bulls on this thread, I do concur that there are several regulars who do a lot of cheerleading. I also find that there are some bears who post polite, thoughtful analysis, and others who persist in referring to everyone who disagrees with them as "ignorant" or "lemmings" or "idiots." These words are guaranteed to generate emotional responses.

Could it be that part of the vehemence with which such people are shouted down is because of their use of these insulting terms?

Neither the bulls nor the bears on this thread have a corner on the obnoxiousness market.
