"Heard it all?"? You ain't heard nothing yet. The Ariad BoD made and then reneged on answering my questions and letters 5 times. Then, they made one more offer ... and it looks like it was one too many.
I haven't shared my latest communications with Ariad here, and won't, at least for a while. It was preceded by EVP TD and another of the corporate attorneys discussing matters for an hour on a conference call with me. Trust, they didn't have to speak with me , but they did. The 3 of us. You should ask yourself, 'why would they bother with me'? I think they are taking this go around pretty seriously. Call Paris, maybe he'll intimate this to you, too!
Potentially canning the BoD is another warning sign. Good may come from it, but it happens because something bad had and has been happening. And a price will be paid. Newer people here, who have no knowledge or don't remember the last time this happened with the Ariad BoD, will rationalize it as totally positive as you see it. IMO, you have no idea what's going on under these moves.
Pirates? Primates? A bit of fun as was your New Year's tale. Even under the hallucination of excessive 'egg-nog' in your posted account, nobody knew what would soon be happening... and why. Few outside the company do. Like I said, stay tuned.
The BoD overpaid themselves and the CEO, they breached their fiduciary responsibilities, they doctored their records and coerced and bought off their accuser...I want THE TRUTH!!!
