andy.. don't agree. It is public speaking 101.

Harvey had a mission today to put to rest the queasiness. That last line was simply his dramatic summary. Basically, saying -- "Don't worry, I see more than you and its all good."

I know he's somewhat of a lunatic. But watching him for ten years, I do believe his interests are aligned with mine.

Iandy, read between the lines of that HB statement.
He's practically signalling the investors that Pona's
potential multiple indications alone not counting
113 and the others on the shelf will propel ARIAD
multiple times its value today. You would be lying to
yourself if you say you would rather did not hear it
at all. That alone is a seed planted in the minds of
these institutional investors. Forget about your
infatuation with BTH. Harvey is the real thing.

Others have replied to this, and I agree that it sounds like a car salesman's pitch. But a CEO who doesn't tell you to buy lots of his company stock is not doing his job. While HB was talking, almost 200K shares traded in the PM; that is impressive!

And just to be complete, a CEO that promotes his stock when he KNOWS (or is in a position that he should know) of materially adverse conditions, is putting himself in serious trouble.

HB put it all out there, and did a tremendous job.
