I agree that this is a lot. I was apparently mistaken about how many shares he had left.

I'm wondering how many shares he is getting in options over the past year dirt cheap? Also how many of those 26 million shares came to him much more expensive during 98,99, and 00? Much more expensive meaning in comparison to what he's being offered in options now. Please forgive me if I'm way off base on options and Mr Siebel. I'm not very up on the exact subject. Don't mean to sound like I'm trying to rationalize bullish either. BirdDog@Prairie.com

>> Tom has sold 26 million shares in the past two years... he owns an additional 36 million shares now. That would mean he has sold 26 million out of 26+36 = 62 million. >> That means that he has sold approximately 50% of his holdings from this time 2 years ago. No, that means he sold 42% of his holdings. You overstated his reduction by 8/50 = 16%. Are you math challenged, or just trying to get one passed us? Either way, you've done severe damage to your credibility. uf
