The May Report: 11/16/2011: Bulletin: Alterian closes Chicago office with 75 people after a number of layoffs going back at least to March and April of this year and my sources say that the head of sales Michael Fisher is a micro manager and control freak; word is that everything had to go through him, plus one might ask whether Alterian’s purchase of two social media firms in the last two years was a good idea — if they failed to execute — and you know I’m just blowing it out my rear end, but this is what I’m being told by those in the know; and Joe Fuller who is on the ITA board is the managing director, USA, for Alterian; Michael Kurgan resurfaces in Southern Cal as he is denied a lease for 10k sf at $25K per month after the leasor did due diligence, including items in this report — so Terry Howerton and Stephen Meade, this is the counter to your arguments that something on the internet is forever– sometimes, as in this case, thank goodness it is; 250-300 attend i.c. stars tech bash at Excalibur and I was one of them but more on that later
