10 Highest Paid CEOs for 2008: Unbelievable [View article]
I sold CHK when McClendon's pay package was announced a few months ago. If he's not willing to take the pain with the rest of the shareholders, he's not on our side, and I don't want to be investing in that company anymore! Yes, I know nat gas fell off a cliff, but there are plenty of other nat gas companies out there who haven't pillaged from their company during this last year or so, I'd rather invest with them.

Wow, what a well thought out article on Seeking Alpha for a change!
I agree with everything you said, but sometime down the line (probably 20+ years from now) we're going to start running out of nat. gas too, especially if we use it as a transportation fuel. Eventually we're going to have to have a fleet of automobiles that run on electric engines or some kind of electric/gas/nat. gas engine. But you are completely right, if we go that route now, we won't cut down on pollution at all because 1/2 of our electricity comes from coal. However, I'm seriously thinking of buying a Chevy Volt when it comes out (if I can afford it) because it will basically eliminate my use of gasoline, so at least I can say I'm not shipping my money over to the middle east. Maybe one day I'll even throw some solar panels up on my roof to off-set all the coal used to power my house.

So I'm wondering, how can we tell if insiders are buying on margin or not? Does anyone know if there's a way to tell in any of the forms they file with the SEC?

When I found about about Aubrey getting $75million, I sold my position in CHK, even though it was at a pretty big loss!
