Hey Dwight...surprising just before earnings. Sounds like they may know what many of us suspect for the quarter. Not a glowing vote of confidence IMO. Wonder what's going on with the lawsuit. Can't wait to see some pressure applied to the BOD. I'd give just about anything to see Mr Young on the stand...or even sitting in the courtroom. If he is likely to be there, I may even go, just for the hell of it. sf

I hear ya Dwight, I follow it also, but Ricart sold off almost 30% of his remaining stock just before earnings...I find that pretty scary. This thing could go back to the 7's before this is over. Could also go to 13, but Ricart's sale doesn't suggest to me that he feels that things are gonna pop anytime soon. regards, sf
