Col - communicating with management and venting (as you call it) on HC are not mutually exclusive activities.

Besides management will almost always tell you what they want you to know, not what YOU want to know, so it is largely a futile exercise.

There will always be interpretive differencies about where a company is positioned (irrespective of what a company tells the market or individuals in private). Hence the value of shareholder forums.

I am interested in clarifying - not painting a lovely picture for the backslappers.

If you find it to be 'pointless bombardment', then just put me on ignore. When more than 50% of the forum do that I will happily disappear.
