sjratty, zitboy - I believe that my optimism is not completely baseless and moreover I don't like kicking someone when there spirits are down. Is it facing reality...yes and no. Investment should be done based on your own DD not just based on someones optimism (is anyone acting on my optimism? I don't think so..I don't have that much following on this board). I believe that proper decisions can be taken when someone is in their proper mind set not when they are down and full of beaten emotions. I take reality with a pinch of optimism in this case.
My optimism is not baseless...here is why. When we heard the rumor of Ericy settlement followed by postponement of the trial date, we assumed that settlement was not done. How do we know for sure? We only heard of settlement rumor but haven't heard anything about how it is being accomplished. Probably postponing the trial date is the first part of the settlement process (I remember the discussion about how IDCC was comfortable with the postponement) so that they can get enough time to jot down the agreement.
I, for one, still beleive that the Ericy settlement rumor had some air to it.

Long & Strong!
