Mr. Wolff.... >>What we have is a new technology. It is changing the way we live but human evolution works on a different time scale. So wherever we go we shall have to deal with that. There will be good and bad people, intelligent people and frankly idiots. I think that Ellen makes a good point when she says that this is not an internal NOVL board, and Mr Smart as usual is filling space with nothing. Since Mr Smart seems to be a promoter of stock one thing that he could do for this community is post his market activity. Is he short NOVL?>> I no longer have a significant position in Novell for all of the reasons previously cited. In this regard you could say I am short the stock. Novell lost the ball a year ago. Novell should be a $100+ stock. It's abosolutely ridiculous. One of my main investment focuses has been on a little company just up the road from Novell which is revolutionizing the telecom industry. It's run by a guy who helped Novell years ago become the powerhouse it became, but this guy got shown the door by the Old Guard for all the same reasons people on this board would like to spit me out. It very hard for people to understand people like me. I'm aware of this fact. But this doesn't mean I'm going to change for others. I'm me, period. Like it or leave it. I believe we all have a central purpose in life to find our inner light/energy and share it in ways which add value to the world. If this makes people cringe then I'm sorry. If this means "nothing" then I'm sorry. If TRUST is a dirty word, then I'm sorry. I know all too well the weight of the whole world is lined up squarely in the opposite direction. I'm just not one to hang with the crowd. We each have the right and free will to think whatever we want. And that's what's so special about community. Peace. BTW: My great grandfather was a Wolfe - an evangelist who travelled all over the world helping people. Had another great, great grandfather - Thomas George Funereau Dolby - who came over to Elgin, IL with his 13 kids after his first wife died. Thomas was a deeply religious man who taught a kids Sunday School which later evolved into a Church. I had a great grandmother, the daughter of Thomas, who lived to be 104. She was helping people until the last day she died. I have a ton of this kind of serivce "heritage" in my family tree. This may help explain to some where all this TRUST and "nothing" stuff comes from.
