I'm sure that I will be soundly criticized for this type of "non-independent" thinking, but here goes:
It's a very complicated issue. I think that both sides have laid out solid, rational arguments. Akone, I was very impressed with your post. Thurly, yes indeed, there is a lot of anger here! (I'm kind of angry!) But if we can avoid turning on each other, name-calling, personal attacks, and just examine the issue we'll all be better off. So far we're doing fine, we're sticking to the point.
OK, here's what I was talking about in my opening sentence, I might as well admit it: I have one hell of a hard time disagreeing with Dew when it comes to this company! (There, I said it, heap your scorn upon me.
)
I'm just a humble real estate broker and investor; I've read a few things he's written about that field that IMO were just flat wrong, but he doesn't work day after day at street level in that business. I'm a believer in experts, I like experts, like most of us I employ them all the time and follow their advice. For me to argue with Dew about Biotech in general and GTC in specific strikes me as absurd.
I have to believe that if his current position is to vote "no" thereby causing a sale of the company, there must be something very substantial to it.
