kid genius???, page-17

Charlie,

I'm a long termer as you are and i have a line of non stockholding downrampers on my ignore list as long as your arm.

But I only put them on the ignore list when I know for certain that what they are saying is plain wrong or unsubstantiated. Frankly i think Mark has a very good point and has done some very simple and relevant research (that I had not bothered to do).

The whole issue of this appointment sounds very much to me like a 'one of the boys' appointments.

You add our counsels vast ASX200 experience to that of our MD and can you wonder why we ended up where we did. There were a lot of lessons learnt by our Board of late and anyone who panicked and sold has paid the price.

Still I cant help wondering the where's or whyfores of Marc undertaking this research on my behalf? However I respect what he says and he stays off my ignore list - for now.
