DALE: Re: <This hurts. I hope qntm employees read some of this. Maybe they will email Michael Brown and tell him the loyalists are hurting and could use some support. > Dale: Why don't WE all email Michael Brown tomorrow. We are the loyalists. I think the educated people on this thread who are waist-deep-long in Quantum have more power than we think. Do you think Brown can ignore 5 or 10 letters from loyalists long on QNTM without at least pausing to look at the facts? 5 or 10 different letters saying somewhat the same thing but from 5 or 10 different points of view will make him take notice! I believe it. Maybe I'm wrong and I should start a moonie cult, but let's try and do something! Rob: Re: <So what do people want Quantum to do? Jump up and say everything is OK every time the market takes another jab down? It might seem to make sense, but do you think Quantum knows for sure what this quarter's numbers will turn out to be this early in the quarter? Maybe earnings will be effected by a penny or three and Quantum will end up looking like fools and losing some cridbility with analysts for speaking too early > Rob: I'm not talking about saying earnings will be on target or not. Perhaps you're right and they don't know yet. I'm talking about great news from TWO different analysts that say exactly what the small individual investor needs to hear! We're getting killed by the small uneducated investor that thinks we're WDC or SEG, so why not just use Lehman's remarks in a release to show the difference between the compaies! QNTM is not just a DD company!!! What good is it that 20 or so people on SI know that but Joe Shmoe doesn't and why would he? Is he going to do the research? No, but he will read a dumb press release that pops under his portfolio news and maybe go Hmmmm... I never knew that. And Jay: You should definitely be on the phone and writing letters to QNTM. I feel terrible for you. You need to see some upside. God, I feel I'm ranting and it's 4 in the morning and I want to get to bed so ..... (ALL IMVHO of course) scott
