Robert, have you ever noticed how some folks that never visit this thread seem to come out of the woodwork during these crisis events? Some of them have substance, others are simply snipers seeking some sort of gratification. Whatever floats their boat, I guess.... ...on the verge of bandruptcy, EXDS going belly up (perhaps in a couple of years, if this economic trend stays down), fiber gear manufacturers cannot sell their wares and this makes GX a problem? I just don't get it. Traders vs investors...traders have a hard time making a dime in a flat market so the news media whip up the material to create some self-fulfilling trading prophecies...I guess. QUI BONNO with respect to CSFB's obviously misleading header on their paper, put out on the most volatile day for telecoms, their involvement with those other firms (NT, TSIX) tells me they knew when their announcements would be made.....I ain't that stupid. Robert ain't that stupid to be wasting time here if he were trying to mislead me...there's more money elsewhere. Martin Thomas

. . your name is opus isn't it? No Robert, that isn't Opus. Opus posts more substantiated comments when they are about the business aspects of GX. I agree the emotional aspects lack clear vision, similarly to Opus' emotional comments, but remember, at least Opus has a good vision of business when she doesn't let her emotional rancor overwhelm her posts. Please don't confuse that poster with Opus. Martin Thomas

"We are a specialist." Thank God! I would hate to think how an amateur would do! Robert -- anybody who has listened to you, up to this point, has lost a significant amount of money. You have lost credibility. You don't know who I am. I am sure you would have a little more respect if we all shared 1) our true identies -- right Robert (sic) and 2) our true positions? How long can one stay in money management -- if you truly do manage money -- by holding onto a stock as it falls from the $40's to $8? Somehow that question was not answered in your post. (Unless one wasn't long gx while claiming they were -- this isn't directed at you.) God Bless, mrcjmoney@tsix.com PS: Thanks for holding your tonque before telling us that billionaires (you know 3 of them!) don't care what price they sell their holdings at. Every major insider is selling. I can relax -- because they don't care what price it sells at. You're one of a kind Robert! :) PSS: How does one obtain your "specialist" services? I was always under the impression that money leaves managers that report lousy results. You seem to attract money while recommending, at some length I might add, stocks that go from the $40s to $8. I've got to find that kind of gig. Big money management fees and no accountability. You are one of a kind Robert! :) ____________________________________________________________ "Global Crossing is on the edge of bankruptcy due to their leveraged balance sheet. (Check with the specialists that handle such issues as credit worthiness, over-leveraged, pros and cons of bankrupcty filings, etc.) We are a specialist. They are nowhere near bankruptcy. Go home and take some classes and come back with some real arguments such as those ferrited out by many others this weekend (pro AND con). You ought to substantiate your comments rather tan making rash acquisations. Do you know the type of folks that are making sales recently? If you did you would see that my argument is at least plausible . . . your name is opus isn't it?"
