Victor, in the interest of impartiality I addressed the same post to two people who have agreed to disagree, one of whom is you.
Victor, it appears you take offense that I am a lurker (I by and large am, and there's no rule against that, nor is there anything wrong with that). Thus, my first post on this board in a while, which I mostly enjoy viewing in the background and using the information posted, is met with you chiding me to "post some info of value for a change". IMHO it would be valuable to the board if you and Paul stopped your back and forth, that's all I'm asking.
BTW, I've owned NOVL since 7/21/95 and have not sold 1 share, and have been extremely frustrated, perplexed, and had my stomach tied in knots with its ups and downs. I was a frequent poster in the Joe Antol days.
Also FYI, a thing "of some value for a change" I did shortly after Schmidt took over was to e-mail him, urging him to initiate a share buyback with the 1 billion plus in the bank. He was kind enough to e-mail me back. I would never take even modest credit for the buyback occurring, but within months, the share repurchase was effected.
