No doubt our friend Serge was long then and is now short. Rob

Pat,

That was most unfair of you reminding someone of what he said less than 5 months ago.

From the keyboard of Serge Collins,

The one stock that might recover from this bloodbath is Newbridge, which is a world-class company going through a temporary period of difficulty.

Especially when it appears to be completely inconsistent with everything he posts here.

Why am I not surprised?

Pat: Another one of your dumb posts. Look at the date of that posting -- January 1998. Check to see what happened to JDS from Jan. '98 to the end of that year. Incidentally, while you're at it, take a look and see what happened to the share price of NN from that date up to the early summer when markets started correcting. I hit it right on the nose on both counts and that's more than can be said about your call on NN the last two years.

And you are totally wrong when you say there is more reason to call Newbridge a world-class company now. This company goes from one problem to the another, changing strategies and focus, and with each initiative it takes, it only compounds its problems. They had potential 18 months ago but the storm clouds have gathered since then and the future is not very bright.

As far as that phony lawsuit, I maintain it was nothing but than a publicity stunt aimed at pacifying shareholders and allaying their concerns. Newbridge hastily announced the suit and probably didn't even consult their legal counsel. It was a PR job all the way. Alan Lutz is a master at that.

P.S. By the way Pat, does Newbridge pay you for touting their stock? You seem to have a cozy relationship with management and claim to have inside knowledge of goings on at the firm. Of course it hasn't helped you make the right decision, but nevertheless, it would be nice to know what sort of shill you are.
