Dennis, excellent work! Thank-you very much for posting your notes from your conversation with Mr. Kurtzweil.

I feel great about the positioning of RDRT. One strong buy (that makes the press)and a little more positive press on the DD sector recovering and this thing is going to pop like a cork. I added shares today at 9 1/16 & 9 3/8.

Have a great Memorial Day weekend,

Larry

Dennis,

Thanks for your informative post.

Did you get a chance to mention RDRTs debt and whether eventual covenants have been, or are about to be violated, forcing RDRT to negotiate with banks and/or seek a recapitalization?

I'm speaking from memory here, but RDRT is definitely in a negative cash flow situation; that's when bankers get nervous if you already owe them money.

If RDRT had a strong balance sheet I would not hesitate (as in the case of semi-equipment makers when panic hits). This is definitely a tougher call.

Does anybody else out there have a better insight on this specific issue?

Thanks

Robert

Re: Morgan Stanley
this is probably what Kurtzweil was referring to
