So far the only potential reason I've heard for the move from Omaha to Denver is because it's hard to get talent to move to Omaha. How to explain then WorldCom keeping its headquarters in Jackson MS? I don't buy the "talented people don't like Omaha" angle. You guys need a bit more self confidence! Could I ask the Kiewit employees to dig a little deeper on this? Maybe we could start by looking at who else is in Denver...off the top of my head that would be another of my stocks, Recycling Industries...and QWST. I think we can ignore RECY for now. Now why in the world might LVLT want to be located in the same place as QWST?

Just thinking out loud (tap tap tap)

CW, In an earlier post a former employee was talking about Kiewit valuing the stock at 54 pre split 5:1. He thought it was worth more than that. I think the board of directors can discount a stocks actual book value up to 50%, in a tightly held stock such as KIWT. I wanted to know if anybody else out there had any thoughts about this.
