Josh, I'm sure Elric and Tom go back a longtime and have had many ups and downs along the way. I don't know if it is all in the public domain or not. In any event, I'm not judging either way. As I said I have a lot of time for Elric even though he does sometimes lose the plot in Ashman's company as he clearly demonstrated in a previous interview by applauding how great Ashman was and forgot a key question.
Elric means well, he is a big investor here and he clearly has a long standing working relationship with SA. Let's be clear, without Elric's continuing clearing up of SA's awful comms most of us would probably have left a longtime ago.
IMHO, TW has always been good at exposing frauds and poor performing companies rather than recommendations of shares to buy into, although SBTX seemed an exception to that rule. That said, he seems to have shot himself in the foot on SBTX, selling too early as did Billy boy the Dustbin man.
I don't know the history of shychap with Elric and frankly I don't really care. I prefer to look forward and see how things can be improved with better investors (MD over OPTI) and improved leadership of this company by holding Ashman and Hunt to account. Time will decide how this plays out and if things don't improve there will be changes, of that I have no doubt.
