let's face it, Farrell will take care of his employees before he takes care of investors. But, taking good care of employees should work out for investors. He apparently has a longer term timeframe than some of us....me included. It may take a couple of years to hit $100 split adjusted from today's point. I will wait it out.

Jim, excellent post. If this is a vote of confident for Brian Farrell. I will say "Yes" anytime. But this is the vote for more option, and probable more insider selling that used by speculators as an excuse to short THQI. The market has changed since October 1997 correction. TA is getting more an more important and bubble effect has turned the stock market as a place to gamble instead of investing. The job of the management is to utilize limited resource to maximize the production and income, and continues to grow the company. THQ's management done an excellent job on making money on operation and to some degree also growing the business. Another successful way to grow the company is to promote the company to the stock market to earn a higher multiple and use the stock as the chip for further acquisition, and to improve the fundamental of the company (Worlcom is a good examples). If THQI's share price is at $50 now, it would cost THQ only 300k common stock instead of 600k to acquire Pacific Coast Power & Light Co. Options with longer holding period or higher strike price is the way to good, this will "force" the management put more attention to us shareholders too. In Conclusion, vote NO FOR OPTION, YES FOR OPTION WITH STRIKE PRICE AT $50 Think about it, if THQI will not see $50 by 2000, will you invest in this company even if you are sure that it earns more than $4.00/shr? aC
