You're nitpicking with a lawyer on a skiing relating messageboard.
Just curious if you can back up your scam statement thats all? What that has to do with you being a lawyer I'm not sure?
Enron was much more than a company of suits. Ask the linesmen if they knew what was coming. Ask the mail clerks, ask the drivers, ask any and all of the hourly wage folks. They are the tragedy, not the suits and suit-wannabes Cono portrays as comprising all of Enron.
Boeing is more than a group of Aerospace Engineers, even if they get all the "credit."
But sometimes its just one bad rivet that takes a plane down.:tongue:Quote:

Dude, calm down. He's not attacking you personally. And let me give you a name and a firm: Jack Grubman and SSB. Maybe not all market action is a scam, but some of it sure is.Quote:

Some of us were just looking for you to expand on your original assertion, thats all. :DQuote:

He was the man in charge, he was ultimately responsible. He was certainly compensated generously for being that on the way up, not sure why when things go south it should be different...Quote:

You just described 99% of the NSR threads here.
Is he being serious? I can't even tell.
We totally need a Serious-o-meter here.
Does it make a difference?Quote:

Well not really, but I just wanted to say that
I don't do securities law but I've worked with a ton of public companies. If you think I'm going to discuss personal and professional experiences on this board then well .. I'm not even going to go there.
Vancouver is one of the stock scam capitals of the world; we're not just known for amazing skiing, bike-trails, rock-climbing etc. Speaking of bike trails, I'm going for a ride - on trails that are 3 minutes ride from my door. Cya!
Yeah, NYSE, London, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Vancouver. Those are the capitals of world finance folks. I hope you're podcasting Louis Ruckheiser right now. idiot.Quote:

We fellow denizens at TGR are consistently and constantly amazed at your self possession. Honestly, is there anyone that regularly posts here that is so consistently full of themselves and so thoroughly obliviously embarrasses themselves? What a train wreck.Quote:

Oh well, carry on. Because we know you will.
I USED to think Mr. G was unfairly picked on simply because he had different viewpoints and not because he's an asshole.
Way to circumvent the Used Car Salesman gaffe!Quote:
