<<Actually, he did. He said 1) options should not be expensed because "all you're doing is debiting retained earnings and crediting paid-in capital" for a non-cash expense that doesn't tell you anything about the business and that's already reflected in the dilution; and 2) execs should be rewarded with stock grants and not options, and the grants should be based on earnings (i.e. business performance) and not stock performance.
