CSMA management has taken the only assets, seperated them from the liabilities (LPS) and taken those assets private. I would call that a big time hosing. And there is not one damn thing that anyone can do about it. When everyone catches on to that fact, CSMA stock is going to be delisted and the other two will never trade. Those assets will probably be sold and that will be the end of the story. There will be some slaps on some wrists, securities industry barrings, but nothing more.

<<...bottom line, do you think the company hosed us? Or is in the process of same? Assuming so, who is culpable? The ringleader? My first recollection of something being rotten in this play was our beloved (and departed) Franco. You think he was an insider?>>> If we only Knew exactly what happened!~~~ I wouldn't (on my own, personally) spend the money to try to find out. Now if investors as a whole would have a lawyer or the SEC investigate what happened, that IMO would be great. I would gladly pay my share! Problem is, most would not want to spend good money after bad to find out. I don't know of anyone who really knows. The only thing I ever heard about franco, as far as from CSMA, was when I was told that it was "over heard" that someone made several hundred thousand dollars from selling CSMA stock. I doubt if they would comment on franco. franco KNEW what he did was against the law. That's why we will never hear from (franco) him again. IMO he's out there, not too far away. I'm sure everyone has some kind of opinion of who franco was, an insider or a lucky hypster or whatever....... And an opinion of who and what CSMA management is and has done. From management being a bunch of drunks who happened upon a few good deals and ideas, to honest businessmen who had a few turns of bad luck come their way. It is and will be debated forever IMO. To me I just would like to make a few bucks ('back') on CSMA or the spin-off companies and move on. If they would sell out to another company I would consider keeping a investment in it. Otherwise, IMO, CSMA is tarnished and I could care less what happens after I 'whore' what shares I own. I would have to see management "walk on water" before I would believe anything they say. Of course, JMHO. Till then, I'm here and am a stockholder and nothing (but money<g>) will cause me to leave. I know that hurts don't it? Happy investing! KZAP
