tidd, it's the psychology that's fascinating.
There have been far too many examples of strange behaviour by pi's recently. It doesn't seem to matter that a company's board can spell it out in plain English i.e "we are going bust", there is a group of people who pop up on these bbs and say; "no, they can't really mean that, can they?" "I'm going to have a punt" "there must be a plan b", "not over 'till the Fat Lady sings" etc, etc.
Recent examples include XEL, GKP,NEW,WRN, etc,etc. (WRN's different...I don't think there are any directors)
Why people ignore what they're being told never fails to amaze me.It's a bit like telling someone not to play football on the M6 and the thought process being;"yeah, I know he says that, but I bet he doesn't mean it".
All very odd.
