BL>  What's wrong with Pacific Dunlop?

Dunno.

BL> I read that they had some problem with a pacemaker cable that kills

BL> that halve the value of a company that mostly makes rubber tyres?

Buggered if I know. I wonder if Frank has any ideas ?

BL> There's got to be something funny about a company that halves in
BL> value while similarly solid industrials only drop to 80% in the
BL> current share collapse.

I must admit that I'd be a tad worried too. There has got to be
something else happening.

BL>  Dunlop is a worry. What's happening?

Then again, Paul is buying. Perhaps they are worried that he may
soon have a seat on the board :)

Cheers, Brenton
