JGreg -- I bet we are closer to agreeing on this than you think -- really my biggest concern is what a stock buy back would do to liquidity -- lets face it THQ still does not have that many shares outstanding -- and frankly it just doesnt' stike me as Brian's style to spend the company dough on buying the stock -- for the many reasons you stated in your post -- he has shown no evidence of thinking that way. Who knows? One thing -- for anyone who did not live through the secondary -- it was the pits -- everyone was complaining just like they are now -- you know what? BF was right. Anyone who held on watched the company run to the 30's and also got a 3 for 2 split along the way. Those that lost that opportunity were those that sold on during the tough times of the secondary. My prediction -- we will not see a stock buy-back -- but we are at a similar opportunity for upward price movement as we were after the secondary in 97. JGreg I enjoy your posts too -- thanks for engaging in debate and info that makes other's think and helps in my thinking on THQ. Trippi
