Juli, I can relate to the frustration in getting accurate information on the Convertible Preferred issues, but I can now look back and realize that while this was an issue for me that I felt was important and worthy of learning about, that this same concern was not shared by others that I was trying to get information from. The Convertible Preferred issue is complex and requires a lot of hours of research to fully understand. If we ask questions of a group that isn't interested in this issue then it's not unlikely that we will get incorrect answers. This does not mean that those people are witholding information, it just probably means that they either aren't sure about the answer but have a best guess, or maybe they know the answer but don't understand the issues well enough to put it together. Believe it or not, I have not yet spoken with anyone that had done enough research on these issues besides yourself and Murphy that was able to answer my questions, and I have talked to a lot of people. (G) What I learned from this, was that.
