RE:RE:RE:RE:The Market Just Wants StellaHa!! No, Crow and the Gek are not my sources, although, as stated, I am firmly in Crow's camp as to the end game on this stock. As for the GEK, I think you should show him the respect he deserves Ferret. He is, after all, the self described "King of Comedy" on this board. And of that I will not dispute.
As for shoving a sharp stick up a dead dogs a$$ (second reference you have made to this practice, and I hope to God that it's simply a metaphor and not some sort of ubiquitous oil executive ritual), I am at a complete loss. From the context of your post, I can only sumise that it is a relatviely easy thing to do, although I'll have to take your word on that given that not only have I never done it, but it has never even crossed my mind and I can assure you that having invested in the oil sector for a number of decades, I have seen my fair share of dead dogs. And whether the management or BOD of IAE have the intestinal fortitude and technical prowess to partake in such good clean fun, I again will have to defer to your expertise in such matters. But given that you assure us that they would not be able to do even this simple thing, I can only reiterate that I hope the company is sold this year and the sooner the better. And God help us if management ever figures out the implied intense joy that can be had by investing in sharp sticks and searching for dead dogs, otherwise their preoccupation with such proclivites might leave us all the poorer.
