"Nice to see some of the posters who were screaming about the LFB deal and hoping the company would go up in smoke, just to burn management's ass mate*, are beginning to "get it"."
You are once again misstating what some of us have said Jesse! No one, at least not I, "wanted the company to go up in smoke just to burn management's ass". What many of us have said is that management has been fiscally irresponsible for a long time and the last LFB financing deal was a horrible deal. Many of us have also advocated that a change of management may be beneficial to GTCB. I still stand by those thoughts but I am also cognizant, as always, of the value technologically of GTCB....
As I said in my post that you responded to, management may get lucky in this case with FDA ATryn approval and with an FOB partnership that may save us from being swallowed on the cheap by LFB. I also believe that GTCB currently is very undervalued. However, that does not mean that management had not messed up big time in the past just because things may work out anyway...
For instance, if someone voluntarily quits his good job and invests unwisely in the market losing all his net worth, then by a stroke of luck that person wins the big prize in the lottery, would you then praise all the decisions that this person made or would you say that person made stupid decisions but got lucky? That I believe may prove to be the case fiscally with management and GTCB...
