But NWBO never cared about the environment before and when they had something/anything positive they would announce it. Sure they would get trashed by AF & Co which always sucked for us but LP would still shout it from the rooftops either way or get a huge and expensive ASCO booth from which to sell it.
One should ask ourselves the question:
What benefits LP most and that is what her choices are going to be comprised of in this situation.
She obviously doesn't care about the shareholders imho and can sacrifice the pps, so what does that mean?
Does she want to buy it all on the cheap i.e. take it private now that she knows good news is right around the corner?
Does she want to do a reverse split because she will have so many shares it wouldn't hurt her in the end from a cash perspective?
Does she want to go BK so that she can take Cognate and stay private or take that public?
But where do you see her looking out for the shareholders, will someone please point that out to me since it appears I must have missed something?
Timing is everything, if she can acquire the reminder of the company on the cheap wouldn't that benefit her in a myriad of ways ultimately?
Remember she had a great education prior to coming a board, could have taught classes in this stuff I suppose.
Regarding insurance , how would the insurance company know while a case is in motion if the insured is guilty of fraud or negligence.....that would only be proven during a trial?
But there is not trial, they have just been sued, so they have insurance for being sued.
However why would NWBO be reimbursed if their insurance company's attorneys are handling it and the insurance company is paying their attorneys directly?
I don't understand therefore what insurance reimbursements are for, maybe when you see that come up in the 10k you are assuming it is for legal expenses, but couldn't it be for other things such as for problems at Sawston?
THIS is the most ludicrous aspect of LP owning both companies unless it goes to benefitting shareholders, hopefully she will do the right thing.....that would go a long way with me.
That being said, The assumption that the Nasdaq had to force her to hopefully correct this apparent problem is troubling........the assumption that LP thought this whole deal up and implemented it is equally troubling for me as a shareholder again unless it benefits shareholders value.
I am also an owner of a company, but when it is a public company you must look out for the shareholders, you don't when it is a private company for obvious reasons.
But negotiating with yourself i.e. Cognate is whoooey imho......the negotiations must be tedious to say the least, hopefully LP has the time to meet with herself;)
Makes me sick to think about such nonsense.
Pretty darn quiet here considering you all have been waiting for the 10k to come out? No discussion?
Looks like Pyr won't be leaving, he will just spend his precious time posting for free.
Most everyone here is vested but he is admittedly not and yet he posts ore here than anyone else other than RK who we know wants to be be a shareholder. I can see her motivation but for the likes of me I can't figure out why Pyr continues to post here.....wait he is such a good, honorable guy, so caring, he wants to look out for my money/investements. What a nice guy, so giving and to do it 24/7 for free, I pay him nothing....wow! This is a cool place. BTW I buy when he says to sell and I sell when he says to buy.:)
Really? "Jumped" you say, hmmm up .19C is chump change considering how far we have slid. That is a lot of jumping it will take to get us back up. Wow I take it you are easily pleased or you just jumped in at $1.30. Oh and "poised to jump to morrow" and now you are the magic 8 ball able to predict the future definitively. It seems as if we go down easy and up hard imho. Again I can't wait for NWBO to rise from the ashes but at this rate I will be an old man.....errrr an older man;)
Incorrect, I just read the article by AF not he Street, nowhere does he mention NWBO i the article about the failure of NewLink's pancreatic drug. Please point out where you are reading this from, thanks.
I want NWBO's stock to rise....and dramatically and soon.
But I don't need to hear the hour by hour price movements when we go up a mere .20C (after crashing $10+ dollars) or need to hear how many shares have traded when it is under 1M. This is what reminds me of the pumping channel.
Now when I read RYK mauling Pyr over Pyr's typical inaccuracies, exaggerations, and falsehoods all to promote his latest and greatest pointedly and slanted negative theories.....well there is nothing like an arse whooping from RYK that is for sure. ......and when her fury is directed all at the evil Pyr well that just makes my day.I love the fact that we have RYK and her incredible digging for accurate info to Woodward & Bernstein him to death!
When a member speaks privately to Les, I am sure that whatever is said is told in confidence if it weren't previously made public. yet you are to make me believe that a member would want to get Les into trouble and announce here something that Les stated privately or off the record assuming he did. Really. Les is a smart ATTORNEY, he knows what he can and cannot say. Now if a member here misinterprets what he said or exaggerates it for his own personal good the tis another possibility.
Secondly I have never heard of a key player in a company give bad news when the stock is tumbling, they always try to put a good spin on things, jul you expect any less of Les (pun intended). So when members here say I feel better after speaking with Les, well then mission accomplished for Les because that is his job. He i supposed to make shareholders feel better, that is exactly what he is trying to accomplish.
Regarding supposed verbatim conversations with Les.
Agreed Les is a lawyer so he is not stupid enough o give any new info.
Les also reads the boards and knows who he is talking to, he knows who will then write on the boards. Do you think he will give info especially if he knows they will be somewhat transcribed and announced here. It would be Les' skin that gets cut. And do you think an honest member would write anything here that would put Les in jeopardy. Thus i think whomever writes of his conversations here has an extraordinary amount of bias, wants us to believe something and is absolutely not to be trusted, he has bad motivations to put it succinctly.
There are so many members here that are not to be trust it isn't funny, what a flipping minefield we have here.
I keep telling yah all that Pyr is a GREAT writer, a prolific writer but like any writer they do a certain amount of research to become familiar with their subject matter, quote a lot and write and they don't stop writing. I have asked him repeatedly what he does in the real world and he has always ignored me.
How can someone be all knowing. an expert in what seems like every field under the sun relating to stocks/companies/business/law/biotech etc.
If he was a genius and knew everything would he be out making money, what is the point for being here ....I am telling you he is a writer, a great one, a very convincing one but he hasn't left his apartment in 7 years..........thats all.....we dod members believe his every words yet ignore the real members who are doctors and scientists and stock traders? This place is wracked imho.
Again this all my opinion.
Big Pharma partnering with NWBO (i.e. taking a stake) would be HUGE for shareholders because it would propel the ups upward and onward once and for all.
Toxic financing causing tremendous dilution would hurt the ups although keep the company independent but at this point do you want an independent company going all or nothing or a sure thing?
I will take door number one Jack ( a definite no brainer but most of all it would shut up Pyr once and for all and sometimes revenge is sweeter than money)!
This I can confidently say:
No matter how I think mgmt screwed up with their financing and with their main investor and with their decisions and choices I know one thing is for sure when they are able to release the good news that is about to come down any time now (the timing is obviously not under their control) it will easily have huge impact on the pps pushing it up to unknown heights.....it could happen tomorrow it could happen next week, who knows.....the tough part is the wait....I am confident of this crystal ball that is for sure.
Screw every lying shorter who has hurt NWBO (and me) with lies and innuendos....the truth is out there.
This is what I don't get, related party transactions and/or arms length transactions is basic accounting 101. Supposedly there is an accountant who they are paying who is available for all of this and directors who vote on all this matters and yet what does it say when they let these obvious transactions fly?
So when you say LP has no experience running public company yet she owns a public company and a private company you are grasping at straws and making weak excuses. These are basic accounting principles/standards and are in place just for the reasons being discussed i.e. no brainers. Someone made decisions to implement these strategies at the benefit of one company over the other, the private company over the public company. That being said here is my infantile tack, since LP is an owner in both companies, if one company was hurt over the other that would also mean LP would be hurt in one and helped in the other i.e. a wash for her and maybe that was her way of justifying in her mind. Only thing is the shareholders are not in both companies which I believe they should have been since they are so related, related because of all these transactions and the way the business are so closely aligned and affected by one another.
I mean really does Cognate manufacture product for anyone other than NWBO and does NWBO buy products form anyone other than Cognate. It is obvious that the two companies were split via product manufacture and product sales to maintain protection and control.
This all my opinion of course.
LP has a boat load of experience, where do you get she has no experience running a public company. She has worked for a well known now defunct company where she could have learned all these neat tricks if you know what I mean. Add to that the fact she is an attorney and sits on many boards and knows all the players in her chosen fields. No excuse here.
I have faith she will do the right thing here for is shareholders.
So whose fault is all this?
Dear Pyrr ;),
I said "we are going to be moving on up like in the Jefferson's), well that conservative call is right where we are 10%. Others here thought the ups would double. My flip flopping yesterday was due to a cagey worded PR, first I thought it was positive, then negative, then positive and now negative again. So sue me for being inconsistent but I can't help but misinterpreting their pr....it is so professionally done that an attorney must have had a hand in it along with a media expert. Once again form over content.
Not likely huh.
Up a mere 10cents instead. Why do you think you were so wrong (again) in your prediction?
I think China just outed himself, I believe him to be Pyrr. His reaction is 100% negative and he doesn't want anything to be clearer than NWBO to be wrong or being misdirecting. I now believe China should be ignored completely.
I was happy with the PR initially and then started to get persuaded by China's spin but now I realize Diver is right. This is huge , the only thing that I do agree with China is that the PR was definitely written by a new NWBO person, one who is very experienced with making stockholder announcements.
I now realize that NWBO has just opened the door for a looks and it is sweet.......I believe we are going to be moving on up (as int he Jefferson 's and we aren't talking Thomas here!:)
I would love if you were right but already you don't seem to be because if you are calling this tidbit a bazooka I want to see your Abomb.
And yes it can be looked in this negative light too...in fact this would this would be probably closer to the truth and I am sure the shooters like AF will definitely fame it in this light too. The longs will say . see how good news is hijacked by the shorts and twisted but you have to admit it was pretty lean on any REAL news and mire a rehash with a tease of things to come. I would have wanted more.
It must, the timing can't be coincidental . Also someone else had to write this PR, they had to have hired a pro to do it because i don't remember reading one so well written in the past. Things are definitely changing, and we can thank NW & LP, NW for helping LP clean up her act and LP for progressing forward and taking us where we need to be. I am happy.....finally! You think that this PR could have been PRed sooner or is the timing thing important.
Some group really wants to put a nail in NWBO's coffin! There is absolutely a valid conspiracy theory here. How can the Times write a rehash article based on Phase V's lies and attaching it into NWBO's 10k to freshen it up. Incredible that the Times would write such a hit piece!
Obviously they are at the same time trying to hit NW and make him look foolish so I don't know which was their man motivation but such a weakly written article using the weakest source possible "an investment firm called PhaseV" wow! It just goes to show you how deep media is these days, it isn't the content it is the form and the form was to bash both.
I unfortunately completely agree with what you wrote. I also think large egos are a part of the problem along with over reaching power, especially when you consider that most of LP's family is involved and undoubtedly take their marching orders from her.
Well put Kab, couldn't have said better myself. I have never sen a board where members gloat and denigrate one another as they do here. Trust me I feel pretty dumb right about now holding 1000's of shares at $1.50 and wondering what will become of the future, and I don't need having my face pressed into the ground each and every day over it, my decision to invest in this stock already haunts me daily. I hope we come out of it unscathed.
Or smoke screen to make people think so....afterall by Sept if they are out then they don't show up and any what ever expenses are gone anyway. After all didn't ASCO go that way as far as our expectation level, NWBO rented the largest booth imaginable thinking that they had something big to say with nothing really to say, a let down......they made our expectations heighten due to the size of the booth, incured a great deal of expenses and everyone here incl Flip assumed it meant they were going to shout excellent results from the roof tops. You think they purposely did that to give a shot in the arm for the pps? They aren't stupid, in fact I will go one to say that when Cognate puts ads for workers in the sheets I sometimes think that maybe that is either another smoke screen of hype or a way for them to discreetly tell some shareholders something big is going to happen because they know full well we are checking or maybe there is plant on the boards who will lets us know where to look for these tidbits,
But I realize it is just me and i am crazy.
Here I can agree with you shorty, LP has already let the cat out of the bag that it is all or nothing for her, even though it really isn't accurate for her i.e. only nothing for us, but I guess you can say she warned us. It seems obvious she would sacrifice us to survive and survive well.
In addition when dealing with attorneys their mantra is the least said the better i.e. no one gets into anymore trouble when they don't open their mouth. And in this case saying nothing is far better than saying something negative, however they are also aware that uncertainty i.e. saying nothing is also much better than saying something that is negative and that is exactly where we are right now......silence and uncertainty where only our personal titled expectations are fueling our decision making. Trust me if there was a morsel of good news they would come out with it and risk the harassing by AF but by not saying anything they jus fuel uncertainty and uncertainty can swing either way to the positive or the negative as case in point what is said right here on this forum.
Ahh the real Pyrr in you is coming out isn't our little inconsistent friend.
The lawsuit was just dismissed, it was still ongoing when Wolf staulked the chicken coop.
But importantly you are letting your guard down again, I can see more of Pyrr coming thru. Remember you stern dup when Pyrr left even though Pyrr said he would promise never to return, well you know how that faired LOL. So tell us how you really fell and love the company why don't you.
Wow, you got to be kidding. Mr Smith was a top guy at Cognate and Cognate and NWBO are more interlocked than any two companies I have ever encountered int eh business world, kind of like Google and HP splitting in half but iNWBO?cognate was ahead of the curve it did it a lot sooner. Wolf sits on the Macrocode Board and has had to sit through meetings regarding the case between Marcocure & Cognate and has to be familiar with unusually close relationship between NWBO & Cognate. What you are eluding to is like not realizing that HP & Google just split in two. If you follow HP you know now to follow HPQ & HPE.
It also sounded like Wolf was taking over the questioning and requesting and running the show or at minimum very vocal in making requests, could it be that she was new to Ondra and wanted to impress, could it also be that she was chosen to lead because of her familiarity with Cognate and thus knew more of what to ask NWBO for knowing that she had more so0called inside info or familiarity than anyone else at Ondra. I think the latter. I also think that because Cognate was not NWBO , Ondra & Wolf felt it was perfectly fine for Wolf to be there making the requests of info and pushing hard and knowing what to ask for. After all for the exact reasons you are saying no crime was perpetrated i.e. Andrea is separate from NWBO one could walk a fine line technically and as a worse case basis say to themselves if someone objects later on we will exclude ourselves......which was exactly what happened because LP was at the helm that cold blustery day manning the harpoons admirably.
ExW you disappoint me in your analysis this time around.
Nobody commented on the article int eh Medford Mail Tribune yesterday that I copied and posted about 27 out of 29 patients cured with immunotherapy., Oh well that is the way it goes I guess. Great info on T-cells etc. I wonder why it was ignored, was hoping if this is our competitor or we are doing the same things.
Nonesnese RK, you just twisted things you way again, no one said Ondra should have turned the engagement down because one of the their members were on the Macrocode board, we are saying that Wolf should have excused herself so that Ondra can take on the engagement. You really are quite interesting in how you attempt to put words into people's mouths.
Quoting from today's Medford Mail Tribune in Medicine:
"Seattle- Leukemia patients out of options given just months to live achieved sustained remission to a new twist on cancer immunotherapy according to highly anticipated study from scientists at Seattles Fred Hutchinson Caner research Ctr.
Kristin K. was one of 27 who remained in remission. Her B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or ALL was halted 16 months ago.
Experts there refined an experimental technique that genetically modified patent's own cells to attack blood cancer resulting in 27 out of 29 patents having no detectable signs of disease, published Monday in the Journal of Clinical Investigation. The technique targets two subsets of patient T-cells, a type of immune cell, to go after the cancer.
Kristin didn't have many options, and was first diagnosed with ALL in 2010, treated with chemo and achieved remission in 2012- but relapsed in 2014.
She was accepted int the Fred Hutchinson clinical trial that began in 2013 and received cancer immunotherapy treatment in Seattle on 11/19/2014, she pronounced cancer free less than a month after.
And is still cancer free.
The peer reviewed study confirms findings informally reported in Feb, when Dr Stan Riddell, a Fred Hutchinson immunotherapy expert and oncologist mentioned them at a meeting of the Ammerican Assoc
of the Advancement of Science triggering a firestorm response. Headlines in some US and Intrnational media outlets proclaimed a new hope for a lasting cure that would wipe out cancer.
But David Maloney cautioned against hyping the results which are very promising but nowhere near a cure for cancer . "people have to understand that the word cure can only be used in retrospect " Maloney said " you can't say anybody is cured until 10 years or some has gone by".
Still the study includes the largest reported series of adult B-cell ALL patients treated genetically engineered T-cells called CD10 CAR-T cells.
"The rates of remission on patents who had no other options have been astoundingly high", Maloney said.
The technique works by removing millions of T-cells from patients and then using a disabled virus to introduce new genetic material in the form of antibody like proteins called CARS or chimeric antigen receptors.
The re-engineered cells are designed to target a proven on the surface of malignant B-cells known as CD19. When they're introduced to the patient, they blind t the B-cells destroying them and the cancer.
This study was the first to show that instead of using all the T-cells collected from patients, researchers could use two sub-types called CD4 cells and CD8 cells to create a stronger longer lasting remission. The CD4 cells are known as helper cells which boost the immune response. CD8 cells are killer cells that attack the cancer. You get more predictable activity in terms of anti-tumor activity using the subtypes Maloney said.
Agreed, and I can take everything RK just wrote (hopefully she will keep it posted fora while on the boards) and come up with the exact opposite point of view if I wanted to. I find it interesting that RK is steadfast only looking at things one way here, almost like a mindset where one tries to make sure the outcome is exactly what the original mindset wants....ie not being open to alternatives.
In addition one can't have it both ways either Wolf is a complete moron or she is one crafty biatch, but either way she fails to be this well respected highly decorated and intellectual board member/partner with her act together......and that is my biggest problem. If she should have known better then why was she there, simple, period no ifs ands or buts....clear as day yet RK cannot get this point....interesting if you ask me.
Lastly I understand Ondra bowed out but you haven't proven Ondra caught it first by a long shot, there is simply no one for Ondra to have known what Wolf should have known initially, that I do believe. So the fact hat Ondra bowed out makes sense but it wasn't because Wolf was proactive and sincere, Wolf either realized after the meeting that there was not going to be anything to grab of any substance and thus not worth the liability she was risking or she was found out. The bottomline and I can't tell it any louder, Wolf should not have been there, this is a no brainer and simple as Business Law 101! There is simply no excusing her or excuse for it to have occurred period. This can't be called a are mistake or oops and she also put Ondra and eventually NW in a simply awful position, think about that for a moment why don't know. It appears Wolf thinks only of herself above everything else.
The problem I often find with RK and again I respect here work here is that too often she truly believes she knows everything, is an expert everything, even when we know that cannot be true. These days there are so many armchair or computer desk experts who believe even if they never set foot out of their home and put on the uniform they still think that they can cut an paste their way into any experts' clothes or chairs and write like they actually did the work.
Beach has admittedly walked in the very shoes that RK purports to have daydreamed about and believe that she knows more than actual on the job experience because she remembers reading it some where.
Bottomline for ask smart as RK truly is common sense goes a long way and logic isn't far behind either. K Wolf knew exactly where she was when she visited NWBO HDQ's and whipped out her pad and pen and started writing. And commenting and describing her as if she was such a noted dignitary being a DIRECTOR of a company or two and/or partner and all, well the dignitary certainly left her " I am a genius top" in the car when she put herself into that position of authority questioning her adversary at that meeting when SHE HAD TO KNOW BETTER AND THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR NOT KNOWING WHEN YOU ARE IN THAT POSITION OF AUTHORITY..... and there are just no exceptions, no brain farts and no reason for her not to know. It just doesn't fly in the face of logic, can there be no "OOPS" MOMENT HERE PERIOD! NW was man enough to admit he wasn't aware, yet I don't see KW admit that she screwed up any where, awfully quiet from her and Ondra especially when they were the lead....imagine going from lead Alpha Male in this case to the goat in less than week. Something smells and it ain't fish, this is serious shenanigans and if it isn't a conspiracy then we are dealing with very stupid players that are guilty for making it look like a conspiracy.........totally unprofessional. I amine myself in KW's shoes, and no matter how many times I do I can't fathom how I could every use the loops excuse with this major snafu.........imposssible.
I completely agree. For Rk who i have an incredible amount of respect for to say that she cannot agree with NWBO's finding with regards to K. Wolf's infiltration into and borderline criminal trespass imho is simply crazy. In this case if it wasn't for LP's stubborn steadfastness things could have gone from bad to worse. And with the admission that NW didn't know which btw is to telling in also borders outrageous, think for a moment that NW, his stature , his power, his connections....evrything about him...his high position in the industry basically admitting he was in the dark to all this....saying this against his partners (Ondra) about a partner is unbelievable and great fodder for a Gresham novel and yet it actually happened. NW out of the loupe and only do to the huge ovaries of LP that the obvious attempted transgressions as stopped....where is the outrage...an obvious subterfuge of someone trying to get internal docs to hurt the company...unreal imho!
I am a strong believer that big Pharma and possibly gov't until the Biden Moonshot Episode was trying to take these types of cancer cures down...in fact it is obvious.
But I don't like when related companies like NWBO & Cognate play fast and loose with financial dealings and if not actually following arms length transactional rules then do things that cause suspicion and worry along those lines. When a company is private that is one thing but when a company is public that is a whole other and shareholders ned to be informed and protected and when there is so much uncertainty in that area you can't blame anyone but themselves. Either way it causes mistrust and imho LP & LG caused most of the distrust and need for an investigation(s) and remember if it weren't for NW we wouldn't be having any investigations because LP & LG surely weren't listening to us regarding stopping the appearance let alone the possibility of inappropriate bookkeeping. They continued going on their merry way with all this possible nonsense and if it were for the benefit of shareholders it was never explained as such.
I feel that I am personally being set up for huge dilution, where the value of all my shares will evaporate because of all this while LP & LG will continue doing business as usual and I will be out. I have invested a boatload and while I understand biotech is risky every speech LP & LG made made me feel that their business was derisked to a greater extent than most other biotech, and thus I sunk a tremendous amount into the company (for myself that is of course).
So this is more of what I am saying. LP trade stock and play all sorts of financing games because of the commonality in relationship NWBO & Cognate have i.e. LP owns both or controls both companies. What a perfect arrangement, to have NWBO a public company that sells shares to stockholders/investors to raise money. She can act as a day trader and issue shares to Cognate and have Cognate also lend to NWBO in imaginative ways all to the benefit of Cognate which she owns and/or has investors.
One company being public and the other bing private, Did anyone here ever ask themselves we the need for one to be public and the other private? Do you think LP learned nothing during her days at Enron,this is the double edged sword I often speak of,she can be genius for us as much as she can be dangerous to us imho. She knows so much, and what she can legally get away with to further her goals whatever they may be. I just don't feel very protected. Maybe when all those PR's caused the share price to go up, the trades were with Cognate and not new shareholders which mad bus jump in for the ride?
All I know is when I had multiple companies that were private, the so-called transactions that I had between my companies to facilitate anything I wanted to do to benefit myself were not very arms length like I would have had to do if one of my companies was public and had shareholders to protect. The games that can be played here with the lenient SEC rules is quite amazing bottomline is we don't benefit like LP & LG can imho.
And that is why I welcomed NW's power of the purse to get the needed cleanup done and after which he invested his millions it seemed to me Lp & LG got very cocky and when the monies rani out site quickly all communication ceased. remember we have been the target of shooters for years not just months so to continue to use that excuse for their silence is bs. When NWBO had a tiny speck of news or hope they would shout it from the roof tops and now they hide behind all the naysayers seemingly sing what the naysayers said against us i.e. not announcing any speck of news anymore and almost agreeing with them.
And remember when attorneys run a company versus scientists it personally makes my knees buckle because it is like they are too smart and know all the tricks in the trade to further and protect themselves to the with degree while we wait and see what scraps are left for us to fight over.
And will you look at that reply, it is being so direct and complete in giving you an answer to your question.
NW is admitting he had ho knowledge of Wolf being a Director for Macrocure, is that telling or what? And he is also admitting he had no knowledge of why she was chosen by Ondra, the company that he not only hand picked to have a CLOSE relationship with NWBO but to help investigate them. IMHO he is basically throwing Ondra and Wolf under the bus. He is telling all that LP was right in what she did, that she was right in her actions to fight back and defend her company. This is os telling and few are shouting this from the roof tops, this 3 sentence quote vindicates LP and yet it is buried in a question and answer period on NW's blog. Now I like the fact that it made public and is on his blog permanently for all to read but I wished he made a personal announcement of this rather than bury it, that is what concerns me. I will chalk it up to saving face than anything else.
Look he is known to be a stockholder activist, his he finds holes in a company that he heavily invests in he believe it is his job to positively move the company to do what he believes will make them stronger. I believe LP & LG were running this company as a private company to a great degree and NW wanted to force them to clean up their act to stop the negative bombardment they were receiving at the hands of the shooters. Unfortunately NW was duped by his own people which he basically admits and it backfired. think of what would have happened if when LP said that she wanted to do as he requested and did. NWBO would have been cleaned up its act , corrected they misinformations and misperceptions and NW would have continued to fund them. NWBO could have been in a far stronger position than where we sit now.
I personally do not like how LP & LG handle certain things, I believe they became paranoid and annoyed with NW and wanted to fix his wagon, blaming him for his choice of choosing Ondra to infiltrate the company secrets and of course blame him on their choosing Wolf to lead the pack. It is obvious he had no clue and was trying to rectify ongoing misperceptions of the company, misperceptions that we all felt existed and were never addressed. IMHO he had his best intentions to make the company stronger to withstand the naysayers but it backfire unfortunately. I don't believe he was trying to take over the company, he is no fool , he is no scientist but he appreciates great science, just doesn't appreciate LP's running NWBO like a private company as she does Cognate is my theory.
You assumed wrong, as I previously stated this is my opinion, if anyone here has and writes they have factual knowledge it may be you since I believe you have an inside leg to the company. Sure I could be wrong but you write with inch blinders and never question he company's tactics or at least always defend them even when it is obvious that they have or are screwing up at times.
