Baldwin, No, honestly, I didn't deliberately misunderstand. Matter of fact after thinking about YOUR earlier post, I felt that MY earlier posts of "taking exception" went over-board - that in fact the quiet period has ended.
.
Now if you say you are sure that mgmt says there IS still a quiet period ongoing I am at a loss on how to reconcile the semi-public or semi-private telephone discussions with the official statement made to shareholders: a "quiet period." This means it [the Company] will be unable to provide nonpublic comment or guidance on the Company's activities in the near-term.
.
Suggesting that people "should want to be a shorter right now" or some such is clearly giving guidance on the Company's activities.
.
Yes, if all 3,000 shareholders HAPPENED to read daily every DCI post on S.I. and saw buried in the middle of a couple of them info on the telephone call #2 (participation in call #1 apparently was a well-kept secret) then with no more than a few days notice we all could have listened in.
.
But what I said before, and still feel, is that it is inappropriate to have ignored the obvious and relatively inexpensive means of communication including the Company e.mail list, the Company Web Site and P/R Newswire, or even a tape delay play-back period, or even Kerry's BBNS list for gosh sakes!
.
At this point I'd rather drop it, as the more I learn of these secret [from the majority of the 3,000 shareholders] discussions, the more I am getting upset.
.
Thank you all for the info. I do appreciate it.
