Kerm, I just came across this and your corner forum. Excellent effort. Any thoughts on Ultra Petroleum? Regards, Bob

Kerm / Burnout I read Mike's note, and your reply. Maybe I could add a couple of cents worth to the discussion. When I first found this thread, I was struck by your zest for taking on the challenge some of these companies present. You seemed to take a lot of pleasure in tearing them apart and finding the dirty laundry management tried to hide in the annual report. Or, surprisingly often, being among the first to recognize value that others had overlooked. In short, it seemed you were having a heck of a lot of fun. Pardon me if I'm out of line, but I get the sense that some of the tasks you have set for yourself at the Korner have taken a lot of the fun out of this for you. That's a shame. Don't get me wrong -- what you're doing at the Korner is incredible. It's much better than a lot of us are getting from our full-service brokers, and that's before you even start to talk about what we're paying to get stuff from them. But as you say, you're burning out, and we can't expect to get that kind of service forever. Just a thought, but if you go back to concentrating on what you love to do and have fun doing, you will still be providing readers here with an incredible service. Furthermore, it won't be such a strain. That way, maybe we can continue to get the benefit of your insight into the future. JMHO, FWIW
