...burk, simply because YOU "deem it fair", does not a law make!...YOU will give this company "until the end of the year"?...suppose I or someone else want to give it 'til the end of 2007???...YOU "run the show"?...
...is it "bashing" to state that I love the man's vision (I HAVE stated this...have you cared to read it)?, but do not see him fit to be CEO?...
...why is my opinion not as important as yours?...
...run, run to the moderator : "I don't like Duke's opinion!...delete it"!...
...opinions such as mine are "out of hand"?...please sir, grow up!...
...match my opinions with yours...don't cry to the moderator to take care of your "problems"...Duke...
...you are correct...I have no experience "running a company"...
...what is it that I am "judging"?...Mr. Huff? ; then you are correct, sir......do you not also judge by your opinions?...most of us do!...
...it is easy to have "no debt" when you find it difficult to find lenders...
...work for you?...maybe, maybe not...I am a administrator responsible for more than 200 people on a daily basis...I'd even be willing to wager that I make more than you do...but, is that really important?...Duke...
SAM, it appears that you are "preaching to the choir" here, sir...
...I, for one, admire your opinions, 'tho do not agree with them all...
...I, too, am an anti-CEO Huff who believes in the man's fantastic vision, but questions his ability to lead...
...what is it about so many longs here who, when you ask questions, or do not "drink the Kool-Aid", that feel the need to bash alleged "bashers"...
...someone took offense this morning to my ID, "duke", because his children attend that wonderful university...that's normal?...
...this company is definitely not "out of the woods" yet, IMO...after observing what I have for the past eight months ; the meltdown also known as the Internafta deal (Mr. Huff's Waterloo, IMO) ; missed deadlines ; incomplete or cancelled pilots, the struggle for revenue growth, etc), I am simply AMAZED at the otherwise intelligent posters who find absolutely no fault with Mr. Huff or the company...that's not objectivity...
...I realize that it is difficult for a majority of longs to come to grips with what they have endured, but I would like to see some of them question what in Hell is really going on with this company...
...I hope for you, and ALL longs, that you make your money back here...but, perhaps, at $.62, some of these PUMPERS should attempt a little humility!...Duke...
....sorry...one final point...
...if people TRULY believe that there are PAID bashers here, or anywhere, with regard to GTE, at $.62, then they are outside the realm of reality, IMO...thanks...and Good luck to you, SAM...
...do you think we get private or government funding first???...
...I LOVE Mr. Huff's vision (I've stated this MANY times)!...
...IMO, the Internafta debacle would have gotten a majority of CEOs fired...that was the first red flag...
...yes, he's done a fine job compiling this board...would GTE be where it is today without Mr. Huff???...it might be in a BETTER position ALL my opinions!...
...and why would you take offense, ineed...what have I done here except voice a dissenting opinion???...nobody seems to appreciate that here...
...Duke's a fabulous school...your children must make you proud!...my name's been with me 30 years!...Duke...
I AM speaking for myself!...
...sorry you feel that way (that I'm somehow "twisting" your words)......
...aren't you a "bit" disappointed?...you appeared to be...
... "Huff belongs at the helm" is YOUR opinion...mine is different!...
...Mr. Huff, as CEO, is THE person accountable for ALL aspects of this company...I think you realize this...
...crash, in your opinion, do we have the ability (funding especially) to continue to remain 3 to 4 years ahead?...
...who will loan us money?...
"Also disappointed that they didn't know the system would max considering that's where the growth and profit was highlighted by Huff".
...Good morning, all...
...this is simply another example from us dissatisfied longs who do not believe that Mr. Huff should be at the helm...where is the foresight here?...
...too many missed deadlines and / or objectives, not enough closed contracts, and an apparent lack of focus have brought this company to the doorstep of delisting...
...IMO, Mr. Huff should be replaced as CEO, but retained for his technolgical expertise...
...I do hope that my "opinions" haven't upset anyone...
...OK, all, someone did a good job of having my opinions deleted!...
...thanks to all who read my posts...but, a special thanks to those who did AND gave my opinions some consideration!...
...I don't believe that I violated the "terms of use", nor did those who responded to me, to wit :

...have a good night, all, and God bless...Duke!...
...did sequential decline in revenues grab anyone's attention?..
...excellent point!...I can't imagine ANYbody in the administration spending 45 minutes on the phone with "Joe Shareholder"!...
...VERY fair point...thanks!...
...justfrank, thanks for the "balance" in your deletions...
...apparently, some here believe that since you will not declare your holdings here, that you must somehow have an "underlying" and "sinister" reason for being here...
...I am currently LONG, but began in December by shorting GTE (when it spiked MT 100%...certainly, without regard to knowing that it would be sitting here @ $.56)...
...very few 100%+ moves never correct substantially...Duke...
...not surprising, siriusly...you've "iggied" me at Yahoo for months...
...I simply asked you what were the restrictions re: buying in and around "delisting"...if you don't know, simply state so...
...as far as "earnings", certainly there must be SOME time frame between the quarterly reports that buying / selling is OK...
...never place another poster on "ignore"...you may lose an opportunity to learn something...Cheers,Duke...
...justfrank...speaking in terms of :
..."We run a publicly-traded company which requires shareholders to buy our shares to remain solvent"...
...don't believe my comment was misleading...Duke...
...my understanding is that they MUST file their intent to sell, then they have a limited time frame in which to do so...
...the "planned sales" filings have expiration dates, and if the "sale" was not executed, they must re-file...Duke...
...siriuslyricher..."no insiders can BUY ahead of earnings"...
...an EXTREMELY vague statement, as "earnings" are generally four times each year...perhaps there is a deadline involved, but you make it appear as if they're never able to buy...
...lack of buying is VERY troubling to me...they want YOU to but their company's shares, but then continue to sit on the sideline?...
...the truth is that, regardless of the CURRENT situation, these "insiders" have had AMPLE opportunity to purchase more shares...
...has to have you questioning their allegiance to / belief in their own company...
...plan4you...don't apologize for asking legitimate questions and for having real concerns...
..."Don't get me wrong, I am not bashing I just have questions that I hope can be answered very soon"...
...so what if someone thiks that you're "bashing"...you are a shareholder and deseve to be heard!...Duke...
...Rob Bleckman spends 45 minutes on the phone with "Joe Investor"???...
...How does he manage to get any work done???...
...nerd, good one!...
...I'm in law enforcement, nearly 30 years...
...been involved in all types of cases, although not alot of "white collar"...I'm sure you'll see more conspiracies in this type...
...know two detectives who were in on the "Son of Sam" case...you should have (and STILL) seen the dozens, if not hundreds of conspiracy theories surrounding that case...fairly simply, the guy lived in Yonkers, NY and drove to Queens and Brooklyn killing and terrorizing young couples...a NYC "beat cop" issues a parking summons to Berkowitz' vehicle, and the rest is, as they say, history...he was loosely tied to a satanic cult which held rituals in Untermeyer Park in Yonkers...many people still believe that he was merely one of several murderers...bottom line : No conspiracy ; a one-man lunatic crime spree...nothing else was ever proven, or given much validity...
...usually the quickest route between two points is the straight line...cheers, Duke...
...nerd, intelligent and well-thought reply...
...sorry, but conspiracies of any type are not generally accepted by me...history shows us that usually the simplest , most obvious answer is the TRUE one...GLTY...
...thanks, Duke
...wsdomseker...seriously, get off of your "Seth Jayson" / other multi-conspiracy theories...
...you are beginning to sound the same as danielle, who has posted ad nauseum here and at Yahoo re : these "conspiracies"...
...few posters bring as much DD and / or sober thought to the GTE saga as you...you only hurt your own cause by alienating people with these...
...GTE has attorneys, correct?...if there was ANY libel and / or slander to litigate, then they would have begun taking action by now...Duke (Stu)...
...BRAVO!!!...
"All those manipulation and conspriracy theories would make a lot more sense had GTE delvered something substantial and we ended up here."
...the most common-sensical line that I've read here yet!...
