You know, with so many eyeballs on the news, so many accountants
quaking in their boots now, a new SEC chairman who's talking
tough reform, with the demise of Global Crossing and others coming
to light, with Sherron Watkins blowing the whistle, it could be a good
deal if AA doesn't go bust in the process.  I'd guess they're still insurable.

Do you think that Caldera and AA could get away with cooking 
the books?  Maybe Caldera can get them for cheap in a benevolent
move to help restore AA's reputation.

Could it hurt Caldera?

BTW, what does a "reverse split" mean?  Good for you?  What's
Caldera's future?
