Gentlemen (and others) - what has any of this to do with the topic of this thread which, as most of you seem to have forgotten, is Cathay buying back shares. Talk about focus! Now please stop this childish bickering and get on with some serious bitching elsewhere. It really gets very boring listening to you guys venting your frustrations aimlessly against each other. Some serious anger management needed here! So run along and try get over yourselves and stop showing the world just how unprofessional you really are. You guys must come from 1 child families 'casue you obvioulsy have a problem getting on with other folks and have never learned to listen and discuss issues that run contrary to your own beliefs and ideals.
