Ditch, Sorry your little dis was off target, but I understand the source. Just for future reference, I've been acquiring TSIG stock since May, 1998, and know about all the warts, including you. Now for the serious part. TSIG and virtually everyone on this thread has at one time, either through enthusiasm or purposeful distortion, contributed information that didn't happen as expected. The weeks prior to last year's share holders meeting come to mind, and IMHO opinion, history is currently repeating itself. Knocking past behavior in a world focused on the future seems out of phase to me. Your apparent grasp of shoulda, woulda, coulda corporate strategies probably impresses some. It is surprising that you haven't already shown up in a Charles Schwab commercial. If there was any evidence that you were a credible paid (or unpaid) advisor to TSIG's BOD, then I would be one of your greatest supporters. Unfortunately, there isn't. Now I'm just a good ole boy from Indiana who can't make a living being a Monday morning quarterback. But I do know a little bit about corporate America, and a little bit about investing in a solid business model. I also know a bully when I see one. Let's make sure you understand my position. In the weeks leading up to last year's SH meeting, you were a highly visible basher that purposely placed fear and doom in the eye's of honest shareholders, causing them to sell out of positions in TSIG at great personal loss. Your tactics are the same now. A standard, run-of-the-mill bully who is too bright to be doing this as a lark. Save the crap for somebody else, Ditch. You're way out of my league. Back to ignore. John
