To answer your first question "What kind of a twit would buy DAB"...... I last bought SFY when it was at $6 when it was completely out of favour and when most people thought that management was hopeless and had been deceptive (regarding statement of decline on reserves). In other words SFY was virtually an untouchable. I have recently bought DAB under pretty much the same circumstances. In both cases, it hasn't simply been due to desperate hopes of recovery; it has been because I see strong underlying growth and unreasonable negative sentiment. Furthermore, in each case I can (and have) summarised some hard facts about why I believe this. If you have anything of substance to say about DAB I will be happy to debate it with you (on the DAB thread here, or over on Yahoo!). However, you'll have to come up with some reasoned arguments and facts, rather than simply slagging off me and the stock. (For starters you should know that DAB is not a "fast food" operator - it is a restaurant/entertainment chain where "hardworking men with strong backs" go and have a good time and spend their hard-earned dosh). Otherwise, perhaps you can keep your BS off this thread? Apologies to any SFY longs if this has got in the way of the usual dialogue, but it seems that we are all looking to Yahoo! to hold the core SFY debate these days. SFY was briefly a five-bagger for me on Friday, so I remain a very happy bunny! (Without apology to Arkay, who somehow seems to find this expression threatening?) Mark p.s. Richard - it seems to have been my week for it! :-) p.p.s. PG didn't follow your TIE suggestion. Damn! :-)
