Steve,
<<Likewise, you and others might appreciate the less enthusiastic folks here, as they have been more right than wrong.>>
Yes. So far at least. The company does seem to have something of hex on it, and at times this has been self-inflicted. It's fairly typical of companies run by high energy entrepreneurial types, as surely most of us here would agree HJ is. There are upsides and downsides to that sort of personality, and the downsides often preclude getting along with the "Biggs" types on WS.

However, I personally am holding, and even added some more stock this morning at Malone's price. If its good enough for him, its good enough for me. No options on this one, though. Years ago, I had too many options expire worthless to indulge in that generally speaking losing game.

Regards,
Sam

Steve, this will be my last try with you, AGAIN. You can't have it both ways. You say I operate on insider information. Then you say I'm wrong all the time. I have responded OFTEN that I do not operate on any inside information and wouldn't do so. I do know this company though and I do speak regularly with IDT's analysts, competitors. I've visited their facilities, met with Senior management and probably am more familar with what they are likely to do than anyone. I've gotten hammered often on earnings warning or whatever and lost tons on options in the past. None of this would happen if what you say is true.

Now, here's what I don't understand. As a gentleman (and most of us on this thread are). Why would you continue to publicly accuse me of this?

Secondly, why is it that EVERY SINGLE time something good happens with this stock. You show up with vindictive?

I agree with some of the other posters. If you don't like my reasoning or logic. Then post your counterpoints. A contrarian view is often helpful.

I hope you will give that a try and I hope you will agree to stop making accusations that are wrong and malicious. It is simply the right way to act.
