John,
It should be clear by now that, no matter how many times jhild is encouraged to "call so-and-so" to verify, confirm, dispel, etc...he is NOT going to do it.
The reason is simple. His only agenda is to stir up crap, and aggravate investors. His protection is his anonymity!
If he were to dial Dave's office, he might have to identify himself, or at least lie and say he was a shareholder (or news reporter) in order to be able to get the time of day...would anybody just spew forth information on their company without at least having a feel for who they were giving it to? I don't think so...the disadvantages would always outweigh the advantages of "making a shareholder happy".
Dave, or any other recipient of the call, would then have a handle on just who this guy is, and that is a chance jhild just can't take.
If this were not the case, jhild's profile would be proudly displayed here on SI. Believe me, with just minimal information, there are not too difficult ways to dig up just about everything about a person....I've spent the last 20 years doing exactly that.
Bottom line, despite occasional provocative points that he has made, he generally is not worth the time it takes to respond (as has been stated numerous times in the history of this thread...)
And, he will Never "answer your question".
Just my thoughts...
Russ
