Hi H-M - wait a minute, I did not say this <g>

Russ Horowitz is not naive and he did not get to where he is by dumb luck as you possibly suggest

What I am trying to posit is the problem betwen 2 conflicting claims by some of the good folks of this thread. As I ve reiterated many times here, I don't really know the corporate players and implicitly I assume they are 100x smarter than me, so 2nd guessing them is beyond me, an outsider who is not in possession with all the facts. What I am trying to say is that making this a moral issue may be premature.

best, Bosco

Correct!
Naive would never be a word used to describe Russ.
Trusting perhaps.

He would have believed Jain was honest and would have had no doubt that he would have kept his promises made in the merger deal.

Jain is a snake, will say or do anything to get what he wants. Not only did he fool Russ, but he fooled the stockholders as well.

There is a lot more to this than we will ever know. I do not believe this was a move on principals or for "the good of the company" but done for absolute control. "I AM THE KING!"
