WW, I'm not doubting anything. But I mean isn't COMS free to move the date around. I mean what if someone important from the CC was involved in some kind of important negotiation with some big company over sales or something, wouldn't we all rather wait a couple of days instead of pissing away a deal to keep the circle on the calendar accurate?

>>Briefing.com was right that COMS set the first earning report date on June 22<< Read my previous post. Briefing.com admits that they never had a clue when the reporting date was supposed to be. Then, one of their non-COMS sources turned out he never really new himself, but was talking as if he new. It could be your brokerage firm was getting hand-me-down stories also....At this point, the whole thing is a mess, and we can't assume anything, except that Briefing.com knew they had nothing concrete, and decided to make a federal case out of it. Even if it turns out they're right, they had no right to assume mal-intentions before they could verify. I say we we write up a 'flame bomb'. <gg> joe
