InterDigital Inc (IDCC)

Bux's basic problem is that he can't help himself. For some reason, he has to hold himself out as the lone voice of reason in a message board, which, if you understand his world view, is filled with a) stock manipulators and hypesters, and b) people who don't know how to think for themselves.

If you've followed the sociology of the IDCC message boards, there's a semblance to community that is worthwhile for many people so his pretentious attacks on people's integrity and intelligence naturally elicit violent responses.

What is fascinating to watch is that he keeps on doing this despite the fact that he often dwells in trivialities, his views are mediocre, at best, and often devoid of facts. Not even insights into the investing process. Most importantly, he has been wrong about the company's fundamentals which explains why he has been wrong abut the company's stock performance.

Spectacularly so.

Try looking at his RagingBull and SiliconInvestor posts in late 1999 to see what I mean. Once every year or so I like to engage him so I can trap him in his own syllogisms and induce the kind of emotional argumentation that you are witnessing now.

It's entertainment. That's all. LOL.
