To Dr. Schmidtz and all:
Joe Lanza states "FIG is hired to pass information to the shareholders, which comes from management." We've told a zillion times at least (by JL) that this is ALL FIG does, nothing more, nothing less. Wow, for THIS we've needed a whole company at a cost of $25,000 a month. Dumping FIG is the BEST thing AirStar has done in a long time, and I think JV deserves some credit for finally wising up and seeing the light. Think of it this way: The IR individual where I work (a much bigger company than AirStar) is at level 13 in the company's salary guide (about $32,000 per YEAR, at most). Paying FIG 25,000 a month for all this time has been like paying $70 dollars for a pizza. TALK ABOUT WASTING MONEY.
P.S. to Joe Lanza: Saclac asks a crucial question: What are the aggregate AirStar holdings of Top-net, IWIC, Joe Lanza, and Mario Lanza? And what were they a year ago? The entire public relations war between you and management hinges on how you answers these questions. We're waiting for the answer, Joe. Understand, you can't win the war without answering. The clock is ticking. TJS |
