I agree. Why do OT threads with interesting titles have to make any sense to curious viewers at all? -
Adelphia was a big cable company that saw its stock price plummet after it was revealed that they had faked all their financials. John Rigas was the CEO of Adelphia and he and his family sold off a lot of stock before the fall.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

no appeal - this was agreed to by both sides“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
