It does, however, invest money in the same body is seems to have ridiculed.

Homeric laughter! It’s not because you’re lazy. We all know you don’t WANT to know the truth, that’s why you don’t do research!

I guess we have a heckler here called Dan O’Brian, who jumps at every opportunity to sling a rock at the messenger.

Interesting how you throw the baby out with the bath water, Roy. ;-)

Since you are unable to counter Dan’s claims, I take it to mean that he is correct in what he states. Of course, your input on the matter is irrelevant because it is a well-documented fact – thanks largely to your diligence in documenting your own cluelessness on this very website.

Neglecting research so that you can smear some one/group/company more times per day only aids in discrediting yourself.

You should embrace quality over quantity, Roy. The other way around just makes you look like a troll.

Note: this comment was posted from Novell’s headquarters.

Penny Lane, what do you make of PJ’s assessment?

Rarely does Roy Schestowitz have a clue in anything he says, he’s known for not researching any material before he makes accusations.

He claims he doesn’t have time, but he sure seems to have plenty of it considering he spams dozens of un-researched stories per day across the internet.

If you look back through the history you’ll find that they’re charter members of some of the TCs and have a bunch of people sat in different places as participants and observers.
