in the interest of fairness, since i brought the other post over, thought i'd better bring this one over also.... and, qdog...thanks for the posts. i've learned alot (oil business and "human nature") reading the si and aol boards the past few months, and really appreciate yours and others posts here on si ....the good, the bad and the ugly <G> Subject: Re: 90 days & counting Date: Tue, Dec 9, 1997 08:01 EST From: Marty721 Message-id: <19971209130101.IAA25902@ladder01.news.aol.com> Thought long and hard last night trying to break down the events of the day.. 2 phone calls to Mill. yesterday turned the roon upside down. One which was mine and the other Erwin (something). I was surprised at the mad rush to prove somebody wrong - the callers or Mill. Let me explain how I took Sharons statements. One catorgory on my list of Fact/Assumptions/ETC is "slip of the tongue info" When I made the call, I immediatly could hear the excitement in the background. I think many there were just caught up in that excitement(what ever it was about). I know what was said to me (and it was stated that way 3 differant times).. Knowing that they are a PR firm, and I think they are a very good one, I would not put her info anywhere except on the side of my list I stated above.. with a + sign. It got the plus sign because Gary came in so quickly to do some damage control. I have meet Gary several times and have a very good impression of him.. As a former CEO I can appreciate what he must be going thru to try to keep up with these ROOKIES. I think things were magnified yesterday due to the anticipation (or praying) that their would be a release of some kind. As I read the board this morning it reminded me of the time frame prior to the PA release. It is so predictable how the post will be during a dry spell... If your faith in this stock is shaken so badly from the events of yesterday, then maybe you should not be in it.. Thanks for the time......Marty
