Casaubon, Thus, this is a great PR move on the part of Tom Siebel. In actuality, he is likely giving up nothing (those options granted would likely have expired worthless) but, he is gaining the respect and admiration of the investment community. This is one of those rare times that I'll give kudos to the media and the investment community for apparently seeing through everything you mentioned. It has been four days since it was announced that Tom has returned his options and I haven't seen any articles or commentary of any kind suggesting that the decision has inspired increased respect or admiration for him. If you have, I'd appreciate it if you could provide links. --Mike Buckley
