poor orcl...... larry's hanging up his testicles when he goes to his office in the morning. Staff employees overwhelmingly complained about unacceptable noise levels; the deafening, reverberating, clanging sound as he walked through the administrative offices to his own office, cracking the walls, rocking the water cooler. It was so loud at times that it muffled the simultaneous sounds of the value of the company crashing to less than 75% of its value only a week earlier. That was a loud noise heard in all parts of the world.

<<and trotted out as the source of an impending debacle by ORCL shorts.>> YOU NEVER LEARN DO YOU?? The current status at orcl is that interoffice is being currently used wherever it works and at some point either this month or next they are going to yank it off in favor of web based posting. For some groups the web based posting has been implemented but it has drawn a flak, since it is not available most of the time. As far as shorts trotting the problem, when are u going to learn your lesson? I had warned before earnings came out that there were rev problems, but u guys branded me as a paid short and when you got burnt, I would have thought that you would have learnt your lesson, but alas...some people can never see the other side of the coin. Now don't get me wrong, I think orcl has a great product line, and they are the greatest in database technology. They just have poor execution and a big mouth ceo who under-delivers.
