SPIN--I don't need to hear crap from you regarding "drooling wavoid speculation". You seem to always diligently suck in ALL of the DD DROOL, and in exchange you offer this board what? Pedantic legal bs!
You write:
"bargey, you post this unsubstantiated claim (which has been tossed around for years as "fact"). "WAVE was largely responsible for writing the TCPA specs."
You are well aware that both WAVE and HP were the primary parties responsible for the specs of TCPA back in Oct 99. You are not that stupid and ill-informed. But the real point, is the fact you would take the time to object to that line, reveals how much of a pedantic jackass you can be! Substantively, it really doesn't matter, who wrote the specs, about 5 years ago. Why not discuss the substantive issues? I posted an article about Trusted Computing and you grab the irrelevant issue of whether I can document whether WAVE was responsible for the TCPA specs. What are you expecting? That I spend my time doing DD for YOU, by going back to the Raging Bull archives from 5 years back, and try to dredge up convincing evidence for YOU? Do it yourself.
But your post gets a lot better!
You write: "whenever anything is posted that has a negative slant as to Wave, it is attacked by guard dogs & must be linked & proven & proven & proven again." (By the way, why are starting sentences without a capital letter? Are you not aware that this is the style of teenage girls? Just trying to help you out here. You can thank me later.)
The "attack by guard dogs" is the BIGGEST MYTH regarding so-called Wavoids. Look at the recent posts of Weby and Rachel--how much more respect do you need. The problem with Wavoids is that they are TOO NICE against scoundrels. I read in amazement as Wavoids patiently and politely respond to the facile boilerplate crap that bashers throw out to the board on a daily basis. I HATE to associate myself with doma, but we're about the two posters that can be accused of being Attack Guard Dogs. GROWL!!!!
You write:
"somehow v. 1.1 did manage to wiggle through TCPA, but IMO the writing was on the wall that the TCPA structure was doomed from its inception"
That is a wonderfully ABSURD LINE!!!! How in the hell would you know that 1.1 managed "to wiggle" through TCPA? That is pure fantasy. Are you so intimately familiar with the TCPA that you can start talking about the TCPA 1.1 WIGGLES!!!!. Where in the heck is your "WIGGLE" DD on TCPA 1.1!!!
Are you SO ACQUAINTED with the TCPA history that you can write:
"but IMO the writing was on the wall that the TCPA structure was doomed from its inception"
Your "IMO" is pure blather. Do you think anyone actually believes that you are so familiar with TCPA that can write WITH A STRAIGHT FACE that you had a pretty good inkling that TCPA "was doomed from its inception." Come on, Spin, why the blather? Beyond the cliches regarding TCPA and TCG you are ignorant. If I were to ask you to immediately tell me what the letters TCPA and TCG stood for, I dread to hear what you might utter.
You write:
"what i do oppose in terms of S/Hs is the sprague-apologists & double standard-bearers who will say anything to hype the stock & sweep anything negative under the already lumpy rug. "DD" necessarily includes both sides of the coin & if voids weren't so quick to sweep more & more lumps under the rug, maybe mgmt wouldn't act as if they were exempt to the constraints of fiduciary duty IMO."
The point that you make in that paragraph has been repeated on the WAVE boards 945,234 times!(and yes smarty-pants I DO have the hard core evidence to support that number!) With that dead beat of a paragraph the number escalates to 945,235!!!! Congratulations for moving that tread worn paragraph that much closer to the MILLION POST MARK!!!! Great Work, Spin!
You write:
"Zen - you may be comfortable residing in Firenze, but IMO Wave's inner circle has placed their own interests in front of yours as a shareholder time & again & it has finally caught up with them. you can rationalize it all you want, but if the family biz was run like a publicly-traded company, this mess wouldn't exist."
Congratulations Spin!!! This paragraph is a REPEAT of the prior paragraph just pointed out. Therefore you ONCE AGAIN have inched closer to the million post mark that tread-worn, weather beaten cliche of a paragraph. Great Work, Spin!! That paragraph adds onE more to the total of 945,236!!!!!
You write:
"apparently you (c_m) take issue w/people you perceive to be posting from one perspective, yet trading opposite to the posting perspective. you are entitled to take up that cause & it's not all that unlike mine ('cept mine is focused on the execs who IMO mislead & gorge at the trough - essentially the same thing albeit on a much larger scale)."
By golly, you repeat the paragraph ONCE AGAIN!!! Are we not up to 945,237 repeated paragraphs? Yes, indeed we are!!! (Of course, in fairness, Trance, is responsible for 514,232 of those paragraphs. But I just don't want to give him accolades for breaking the Guinness Book of Records the MOST REPEATED PARAGRAPH IN THE HISTORY OF INVESTMENT BOARDS!. The current record is 976,233).
i could go on, but I think I made my point. Most of the content that you write, if carefully read, turns out to be Pure Blather.
but you do bedazzle!!! Which is why I still have you on retainer!!!
hey, writing this post reminds me of the good ole Raging Bull days!
respectfully yours,
the BARGE!
