All, that TSC commentary sounds like Cramer moving his mouth before putting his brain in gear. He's been known to do that, you know. Got him in a bit of trouble on CNBC a couple months ago. It sounds to me like he blames Lew for his own bad decisions about HWP's stock. It pops up right after he sells, so he gets frustrated and feels a need to blame someone. Ever heard him rant and rave about Cendant's former Chairman, Forbes? IMO, Cramer is a classic bull market genius. He's gotten rich and attracted a following because he rode large cap favorites like Dell and AOL to fame and fortune. It'll be interesting to see how he does in a real bear market - assuming of course that we ever get one again. Anyway, I wouldn't base my view of HWP on anything Cramer has to say about it. It's not a momo stock so he doesn't know how to trade it. Regards, Bob PS: Anyone lurking with knowledge of optical disk storage device companies? Spammers hit the Yahoo boards about a company called Disc, Inc. (DCSR) and I looked just to see if it might be a nice short one day. It looks clean though, so I thought I'd see if any of our lurking cube dwellers might know their products. There's an SI thread for it, but the few people there seem to be just daytraders that know little about the company. Any comments appreciated.
