>>I do not hold out much hope that your hero will be prosecuted for any crimes. <<

well, he's not my hero, but at least your hope is not misplaced...

>>Liability can arise from negligence...<<

YOU invested in this endeavor, knowing all, including the AGE of this man and all that he put on his plate...and HE is negligent...

>>But I do thank you for your sincere concern for my family's welfare. <<

It would be better YOU concern yourself with YOUR families welfare than leave it to me...or anyone else...my sincere concern now is for the survival of the systems and the potentials they offer, we are but two players in a very large and complicated saga...

I invested too, I lost money...but I do not shoot the dealer when he hands me a bad hand...I chose to play...and still do...

Irwin is going to jail. If Bernie or other mgrs of the former GSTRF consortium are liable for negligence, then senior mgt of QCOM is just as culpable for entering into contracts that were not enforceable and for their creative accounting related to GSTRF. But, since all are simply guilty of poor business (i.e. a lose-lose situation), ultimately, we as shareholders wind up holding the bag (since we may have been foolish enough to invest) or, if you had the foresight to sell, you did okay. imho.
