Really is bizarre for a "known" company. Will have to put a cheap downside play into action on that one...

Here's a good post from the Yahoo OSTK thread...

Connect the paranoid dots

>"...yet whoever this mastermind is can conspire with hedge fund managers, much of the financial media, the DOJ, the SEC and others and the only people who can figure it out are Byrne and an anonymous internet poster."

The paranoid world view sees ALL the dots as connected into a sinister pattern. And furthermore, those [journalists and board posters] who DOUBT that the dots are in fact all connected themselves become MORE DOTS - a broadening of the conspiracy.

And then there is the touching certainty that the rest of the world should be immediately convinced of the truth of the paranoid delusions, instantly when they are presented. So, the number of "dots" in the conspiracy to be connected is growing to infinity like cancer.

Whatever way the lawsuit and countersuit play themselves out, our believers are going to be certain that truly VAST percentages of our financial, political, and legal establishments are in on the conspiracy before this is over.
