Welcome aboard the Titanic JR. jw From: To: Subject: Google Finance Post Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 18:46:45 +0000 "Hey, we are all entitled to our opinions. *I would appreciate your not having attacked me in your post on the google finance site. Perhaps you would be kind enough to remove it if that is at all possible. If I knew you or you knew me, *or perhaps I had a done something that deserved such a comment, that would be one thing. *I am sure you have your opinions on IBOC, and are entitled to those. *You are not entitled to an opinion of me when you do not know me." Best Regards, J. R. Stocks http://finance.google.com/group/goog...rowse_thread/t.... I referred to Stocks as a loser on iNiquity's Google Finance site, because MyerEmco was a loser that went out of business. Yea, a real nice guy that should be considered a criminal, along with the rest of iNiquity's employees, for this monopoly to take over our airways through adjacent-channel interference! *Maybe, he doen't realize that since he has been in the news, he is considered a public figure, and is legally open to criticism. J. R. Stocks must be second rate if he wants to spar with people on Goggle Newsgroups, etc. *Pretty low class, but than again typical for a second rate company with a second rate product like iBiquiity HD. Especially with their questionable ethics. They have first-rate spinmasters though. * Just my opinion on all this though. Also Interesting that * feels the need to sound so threatening. *Who is that fellow anyway? J. R., you’ve got your hands full convincing retail and manufacturing partners to make and sell a blatantly defective product. *I think you should return to Ginsu knives and laundry detergent myself. *But then again just my opinion. Let me know if I can help you with your new venture J. R. *I’m always available jw- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Well, look who's selling these empty radios: "Introducing HD Radio at MyerEmco" http://www.myer-emco.com/hd_radio/ I love it. *Major stores like Best Buy and Radio Shack can't sell them. *No-name companies like Radiosophy can't sell them. *QVC and Ford couldn't give them away. *Now they've moved on to this Myer-Emco that neither I or anybody else has heard of. *I swear I remember them years ago selling gimmicky products like radio-toaster combinations and other junk that no one wanted. Ibiquity HD radio investors must be pulling their hair out at this nonsense. *All the while, goofballs like this Bernie Sapienza spin their BS about *"this important time, when the growth in HD Radio products at retail is increasing." *This J. R. Stocks can't have much on the ball either if he connects himself up with iBiquity. jw- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - JR and Stocks are two loser peas-in-a-pod. It is interesting that iNiquity just hired Stocks for retail and another clown to stir up international interest in HD, which there is zero in Europe. Digital radio is failing everywhere, including on SW, but someone/something is continuing to feed the HD monster. If INiquity backed-out, IBOC would die a sudden death. I'm in the DC area, and I believe that MyerEmco has ten stores in DC - they were bought out, and the new company decided to keep the MyerEmco nameplate. Funny, how many hits, or lack thereof, MyerEmco gets on their website. In the long run, there is no way the MyerEmco shell can compete with the likes of Best Buy and Circuit City. They are a loser company, right JR? Yes, I wonder why iNiquity's investors haven't stepped in and force Struble out - Struble keeps losing money by beating this dead horse. Yea, how long has this nonsense been going on - two to three years, with sales figures that are pathetic. Hipporadio on Radio-Info's board, who is connected to the broadcast industry and electonic sales, reports that only 130,000 HD radios have been sold, which probably doesn't account for returns, giveaways, and "trade" purchases. This has to be the farce of the century, but look who/what is running the show. I guess that a Harvard MBA buys a lot of spinmisting. This all will eventually implode, and I hope that those responsible are prosecuted for fraud. |
