Ok. How about this:

According to the 5/1/00 newsletter Class Action Reporter, Miers headed Locke, Liddell & Sapp at the time the firm was forced to pay $22 million to settle a suit asserting that "it aided a client in defrauding investors."

Technology industry pioneer (Genuity, mailorder.com) Rodney Joffe talked about filing a class-action suit against an SMS spammer way back in 2001 article 1 | article 2 -- search for "Joffe". Very similar.

I don't know whether he ever actually filed papers, or what became of it. Anyone?

Because the large ISPs with the n-tier redundant power systems closed up shop when the market crashed.

Everyone still around was feeling lucky to be alive, and didn't have the money to buy batteries *and* generators.

CALDERA INTERNATIONAL: Faces Securities Fraud Lawsuits in S.D. New York

Four class action lawsuits were filed against the Company, certain of
its officers and directors, and the underwriters of the Company's
initial public offering in the Unites States District Court for the
Southern District of New York by parties alleging violations of the
securities laws.

The complaints allege certain improprieties regarding the circumstances
surrounding the underwriters' conduct during the IPO and the failure to
disclose such conduct in the registration statement. The complaints
have recently been amended and consolidated into a single complaint.
Over 300 other issuers, and their underwriters and officers and
directors, have been sued in similar cases pending in the same court.

The Company is not aware of any improper conduct by the Company, its
officers and directors, or its underwriters, and the Company denies any
liability relating thereto. The Company has notified its underwriters
and insurance carriers of the existence of the claims and plans to
vigorously defend the action.

Caldera International, which plans to change its name to The SCO Group,
develops operating systems and network management software for PCs and
servers. In addition to its OpenLinux and OpenServer operating
systems, Caldera also sells its OpenUnix business software and
Volution, a Web and directory-based network management application.
Services such as consulting, custom development, technical support, and
training account for about 15% of sales, a Hoover.com dossier says.

Chairman Ralph Yarro and director Raymond Noorda share control of 47%
of the company through The Canopy Group (a venture capital firm) and
MTI Technology.

I'll bet HSBC are pretty p*ssed - they're owed about $2 billion.
