The fact that Irwin Jacobs is suffering from dementia is a rumor that has never been substantiated although his remarks to the press and his actions in taking out manipulative ads that one could argue are violations of section 9 of the SEC '34 Act might make one wonder. Mr. P$nk

Tell me you're not really fool enough to believe that shorting Consucko stock will destroy jobs, etc. What will destroy jobs is crappy management running the company into the ground while giving themselves fat compensation packages. It's the crappy management and perhaps overall crappiness of the company that will see it's final destruction, and nothing else. CMB PS, Nowhere in the Bible, or in any other religion that I know of, does one's odds of entrance into heaven improve if one invests his money into crappy companies and then loses this money.
