    Conf. call.

    Unfortunately, I will not be able to participate. I had an urgent situation come up (I'll explain later), that I must attend to.

    In case anyone is wondering why they don't here me on the call.

    • Kind of you. It can be a great asset in a politician...building peoples' trust...and then not betraying it. The public longs for that. They found it in Reagan. Also Carter...but he was weak as a leader.

    • Nice/excellent/honest guidance for 2nd qtr 2011 and 2011.
      Honest, since they met/exceeded guidance for 2010.

      Agree with lt stock should be trading at book value, for now.
      That's $5.25. Believe funds are on to this as we speak..

    • hope you're ok...
      :-\

      • Here is a the first part of a press release explaining why I missed the COBR conf. call. (There was media event scheduled for 10am, dealing with this event, that I had to attend.)

        FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


        LAPORTE CITY COUNCIL AT LARGE CANDIDATE TIM STABOSZ WITHDRAWS FROM REPUBLICAN DEBATE, CITING "RULES VIOLATIONS"; DECLARES EVENT "TAINTED"


        April 29, 2011. LaPorte, Indiana-----Timothy Stabosz, candidate for LaPorte City Council at large in the May 3rd Republican primary, announces he withdrew from the Republican Candidates Forum last night, because the moderator allowed one candidate to have a special advantage over all the other candidates in the event, shattering Stabosz's trust in the legitimacy of the forum. Stabosz joined Mayoral Candidate Spencer England in withdrawing from the event. The withdrawal occurred right at the beginning of the event, when the moderator refused to disallow Mayoral Candidate Blair Milo from utilizing a PowerPoint presentation for her initial 10 minute introduction...a method clearly not permitted by the debate rules.

        "The rules of the candidates' forum were perfectly clear, and hardly complicated," Stabosz began. "They were listed on one sheet of paper in just a few short paragraphs. Each candidate in a contested race was to be allowed 10 minutes for an 'introduction.' Most intelligent people would presume that the required format would be sitting at a table, or standing at a podium, and SPEAKING to the public. Why the debate officials, or my party, allowed one candidate to use a delivery method that allowed her to 'lord over' all the other participants in the event (when none of the other candidates would have any reasonable basis to know that they, too, could use such a method) was inappropriate, and offensive.
