Q: Would you care to comment on the recent 2nd q results? I listened to the conference call and business appears to be growing. They expect to collect 30 million in asset sales of discontinued operations with 5 mil of that to be realized by end of fiscal year and the balance over next 2 fiscal years. If they are able to make at least 16 cents in the next fiscal year what would be an appropriate value for the shares?

Thanks!
I know there's fear of Alberta exposure, future car sales in Canada and loan losses continuing to increase, but is this company not starting to look incredibly cheap? I'm thinking of initiating a 3% position.
Q: Given your familiarity with Wi-lan, I am hoping you will have equal insight into Memex, Inc. (OEE.v) Although very much a micro-cap, with all that implies, what is your opinion of its potential?

Q: I've held this since IPO and have been happy to collect the dividend. Now the stock is trading bellow the IPO cost that I paid and I am wondering if I should sell or continue to hold.

Q: I read today that if I wouldn't buy the company today perhaps it is a good reason to sell. In the case of Flyht Aerospace, I have lost 74%. So just to clean up my investments a bit I thought of selling. At the same time, I have no need to sell so could hang on for several years if there was a perceived value with FLY. I see that they have changed their executive. I don't know if good or just loss of confidence in the company by their old senior executive. Any thoughts you have in terms of action I should take are appreciated.
