Hi all, just got back from daughters incredible wedding. Catching up on the MB's and what I've missed. Wow, a lot is going on. I posted the below on the Yahoo board. Some may not like my take but that's ok, it's what these boards are for.

Very interesting reading and some very nice posts and information.
For what it's worth, here's my take on what I've been reading here. Some of the persons I think have a true and honest reason for looking into the options. Others, even though they may be educated on certain topics, I completely don't trust their motives. Ex: madaniels. Why would anyone post anything, spend day in and day out posting to everyone about everything when they have zero in the game. And constantly say how many of these stocks and situations they been in before. Really, you didn't learn your lesson. Now you're preaching to us the benefits of going with this type of suit or another. I think I'd learn my lesson after one maybe two, but 5-6+? Seriously? And don't think for a minute that there are not law firms around who look for companies to file BK and then send persons onto MB's and stir up trouble just so they can get business. All the while playing sly and coy like they don't know each other. Complete ambulance chasers. No way people are on here for the good of others out of the kindness of their hearts protecting us from the big bad boogieman. They are in it for themselves, someway, somehow.
Yes, I'm as critical as anyone when it comes to Van & Co, and all the promises broken and the non transparency. But until someone can answer my question I posed before I left on vacation, I will not give one dime to any lawyer or make any promises. I think attorneys are the scourge of society, and in the end will take every last dime possible too.
Question: Why are Van & Co still here? If they're not going to benefit from their stock options when selling of assets takes place, why are they here? They know the values, and that is why they are hear. We don't benefit, they don't benefit. Are we entitled to the info? You bet! Are we going to get it now? No. Do I want more attorneys to promise me anything? Nope. Can't stand them in principal, and I'm more confident in getting a larger piece of the pie, letting this go where it may after they sell the China assets. There is no big fund or debtor seeking the monies for the China assets, so why are people even talking about bringing attorneys on board to fight for what will be given to us anyways. There's no where else for those funds to go people. No matter what others say, ohh the China gov will take them. No they won't. I'm sure Van is as greedy as the next, and is going to want as much for his shares as possible. No way he gives it away for a song and a dance.
Feel free to convince me I'm wrong, but I doubt those who say they are "here for us" can or will.
I do appreciate the efforts of those who are hear for the right reasons and have been here thru the thick and thin. You have my respect and encouragement. The other's no.
Great day to all. Great to be home.
