<<Get a little ticked and tell the truth and all of a sudden you're an a-hole. >>

Uh, Seth, it's the tell the truth part we have trouble with. Pink made statements that were outright lies, then when confronted with the truth, never apologised or retracted. That's what warrants the title.

<<Bob, answer me this...the company only grows at 40% next year and the one after that...that means revs and earnings almost double in two years.>>

Minor correction here. 40% compound growth will double in LESS than 2 years - just over 21 months in fact, triples in 33.5 months, and quadruples in 42 months - 3 1/2 years.

And that's a lower growth rate than MRVC has ever shown. Last year's growth was 86% on revenues and 93% on EPS.

The speed of doubling, tripling and quadrupling at those rates is left as an exercise for the student <g> (I can just picture Drone saying that in his math class!)
