John Pendergas: It strikes me as quite odd that you have the audacity to say that I'm "just plain rude" for not getting on the internet this weekend and responding to your little misdirected query about the CSFB conference, when you stalked me over on the SI IDTC board on July 9th and came up with this bizarre post: ========================================================== http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=14016196 To: Herschel Rubin who wrote (21117) From: John Pendergast Sunday, Jul 9, 2000 6:56 PM ET Reply # of 21681 Without an apology and/or someone who I trust stepping forward to vouch for you, I will do what I have intuitively felt all along. I'll chop you down like a tree that bears bitter fruit. =========================================================== Now, John, my former friend, that post of yours was completely out of left field (where you spend most of your time anyway). Re-read your own post and ask yourself if that post is the one that best fits the definition of "just plain rude." I have asked you to explain your bizarre behavior publicly and you have not. Oddly enough, the very next morning, all of us were "chopped down like a tree that bore bitter fruit" with a 54% haircut in ASPT's share price because ASPT pre-announced their earnings shortfall the following morning. John, what was it that you knew that none of us knew? Anyhow, you will once again be party to civilized discussions with me if and only if you are forthcoming with an explanation for your behavior that seems plausible. Good luck... I know other members of the ASPT community are waiting eagerly. In fact, if and when you de-mystify yourself, perhaps ASPT might jump up at least $5.00 per share on that "news."
