Unlike you, I invest for a living and find it amusing to have someone with as little to offer in facts and information as you try to twist and spin everything I post. For me, this has become a way to comunicate my thoughts to a large number of people who own this stock, but don't post here. They read this thread to catch info. I will tell them to read what I post here rather than me spend 10 minutes on the phone or 20 minutes at happy hour trying to refute the stupidity of the Yahoo thread or the bad information or flawed opinions that often show up here. I have been told by some industry friends that I have come across as cocky or an a--hole when they read my posts (of course they don't have the benefit of reading the ongoing saga in its entirety). I am ok with that as long as I feel I am sharing valuable information for those whe are looking for facts (just to clarify this, when a top Time Warner executive says to your face SEAC and CCUR, that is not speculation unless you are f---ing stupid) to "INVEST" in CCUR. I have said the trading calls are yours. ENOTS said he was bye bye to CCUR and yet he is still here. Steve O, why not sell and rid yourself of this company. I don't have to like Corky. I just have to believe he will guide us to contracts or into the hands of a good company to aquire us for stock. Yes, I doubt the stock would trade here if he was more of a techie and more Wall Street savvy. I considered that a benefit as I was accumulating stock below three. Now that the bulk of the stock is bought, I am no longer excited about these sell offs. Good luck on your trades. I hope you can get out above $3. I think I will sell out a "little" higher.

Steve, with respect to a "careless mgmt team" I share your views. It reminds me of my beef more than a year ago about the earnings warning for a quarter that turned out to be a record, with the warning never corrected; or of the announcement of the ONCO non-deal. They seem to be a little short in understanding the implications of what, where and when they say things. I would add that I find almost as bad the reported insulting treatment of large shareholders. In my opinion, that shows either an arrogant mgmt or one that handles stress poorly. I have talked to many CEO's who know that I am a sophisticated investor but do not own an institutional sized position without being treated badly (as I was on the last conference call, per other's observations). However, I do not feel as strongly as you (in terms of selling) that these issues materially affect the investment merits of CCUR, unless you wish to argue that the pre-announcement on ONCO cost them something, or that the annual report reference might make TWX mad.
