Rob, The vultures who say "I told you so" have nothing better in their lives so they have to escape into cyberland to get attention. SI is full of people who have a couple synapses short of a full functioning brain. I admit that I will go after some of these people because I find it interesting to see how low they'll go. But what matters most to me is whether or not I make money on my stocks. No one knows who we are so it usually is best to let posts that are critical of us go unanswered.

regarding <<Over the past couple of years SI often attracts the "vultures" who are never around except when they can swoop down when things are obvious and then say "I told you so">> You have a very selective memory, 8 months ago you were calling the management of this company every name in the book, saying they were idiots, don't know their *** from a hole in the ground. Meanwhile, I was defending them and talking about their strategic vision. Now if that was such an obvious call, why didn't you make it 8 months ago. Now that things are obviously going well you jump on the band wagon and pretend like you were there the whole time. The more I think about it, the more I begin to believe you really are related to Clinton. However, this time we have the documented history to show the truth. You can't wiggle off the hook this time Billy boy.

You wrote, "I'll admit that I make mistakes. I won't apologise for statements I made about IDT management having plowed too much money at the wrong time into new shell fabs. I still hold the opinion that the expense could have been delayed until the business and product cycles were more favorable and that using outside fab capacity to augment internal capability would have made more sense" Give me a breakkkkkkkkkkkk. How much do you really know about the bussiness. It should be apparent to anyone that has any knowledge about semi's that this new fab was not for capacity but rather technology. Technology that is extremely critical for new products. Without taking this cost back then, you would never be benefiting from getting new C6's and C6+'s processes today. Stop pretending that you know this industry becuase you don't. Have a good weekend, BullonIDT
