Regarding Your Comments on Yahoo



Many of you have been asking me about Yahoo. Please remember I am in the middle of a proxy fight. A proxy fight involves a complicated process of SEC approvals, federal securities laws, filing requirements and a great deal of time and money.

At this time, due to SEC regulations, I do not intend to post your comments regarding the proxy fight. However, I am planning to give you my views about Yahoo and its management shortly. If you wish to be informed I invite you to subscribe. Stay tuned.

SECURITY HOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT AND OTHER DOCUMENTS RELATED TO THE SOLICITATION OF PROXIES BY CARL C. ICAHN AND HIS AFFILIATES FROM THE STOCKHOLDERS OF YAHOO! INC. FOR USE AT ITS ANNUAL MEETING WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION, INCLUDING INFORMATION RELATING TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN SUCH PROXY SOLICITATION. WHEN COMPLETED, A DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT AND A FORM OF PROXY WILL BE MAILED TO STOCKHOLDERS OF YAHOO! INC. AND WILL ALSO BE AVAILABLE AT NO CHARGE AT THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION’S WEBSITE AT WWW.SEC.GOV. INFORMATION RELATING TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN THE PROXY SOLICITATION IS CONTAINED IN THE PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT ON SCHEDULE 14A THAT WAS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ON JUNE 26, 2008.
 
Quote from Elison:

The Fall of Icarus. 1975. Oil on canvas. 213 x 198 cm. Musée National d'Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, France.
Very fitting for this bear market and extremely appropriate for a confirmed bear like Surf !
Also...1975 ? Wasn't the nadir of one of the worst bear markets in history ?
The parallels here are a bit spooky.
 
Quote from syswizard:

Why did the House defeat that measure ?
The big oil lobbies ?
I, for one, am sick of all of these special interest groups, lobbiests, and other PACs.

Leases are generally acquired on speculation. After they are acquired, they are explored first by surface masurements like seismic and resistivity. Then the decision is made whether to spend millions on drilling exploratory holes for more accurate information. Not every lease has oil, not all oil is economically retrievable. A bill that prevents a company from future acquisitions is not really viable. A lease should be for a set period of time (if not developed), not indefinately in my opinion. Change the law to make that happen.
 
Quote from Elison:

No no. The Chagall painting came out in apparently 1975. This painting? 1987? 1999? 2005?

This is in the manner of Joan Miro, however i have never seen to this degree of expression so not 100% sure. This is out of Canavas on top of what seems to be a fine peice of art behind it?
