Hi, Jim A! .[ Attn: All Shareholders ]
Well, don't get me wrong. I'm not a happy stockholder either.
And the contradictions in PR and actions bother me.
But I think much of what is going on at the moment here
is not a measured response, and is mostly counterproductive.
There are more temperate alternatives to this style of dialog
I appreciate the above statement you made, Jim Armstrong, very much.
In fact all of them in your post!
The Creativity and limits of each individual really add to the
bitter and sweet senses of this investment world, while we
"make and withdraw bets", watch, and wait.
I personally feel Jack Arnold set a very fine example, despite
any limitations, to do what he could.
It's evident. Matt knows that Jacks example means much
to all investors here, and realizes you all possess two
sources of power. "money you have invested" and "thought",
Just like Jack.
I agree with you totally. But in one of your comments,
may I re-arrange one phrase?
and company's choice might not be ideal, but given
the risk involved, where would you go? ("no fair", Matt.
We don't all have the resources you have alluded to.
And it's evident they didn't either).
What is "fair" -is your desire for creative thought and your
indication "the merger may fall through". What then
with CVIA?? -As you suggest- A high possibility can exist!
You have added strength to someone's unconventional line of thought.
It would be unfair to all shareholders if Matt's creative
suggestions were passed off as impossible. Shared ideas of another
CVIA solution might help everybody understand there really is
something to fall back on, and their investment/gamble may
still be good without WOTD.
Why not take good ideas and add thoughts to them here
for the "just in case"? Imagine the way CVIA investors
could effectively contribute to and benefit from
the advantage of being a publicly traded entity.
Why not? You already are CVIA!
This is not for amusement. It may become a job for some
appointed group of shareholders here in the near future.
Time to figure it out would actually be now.
If talks fall through, be ready to catch CVIA.
If you are ready, you will want it.
