    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    Yep, it's a ripper, isn't it.

    I think it sums it up nicely.

    Ultimately, it seems to me that the investors who paid far more than the company was worth when it was floated are the ones primarily responsible. Certainly, you can say they were misled, but anyone putting money into something should have at least had a warning flag raised by value of the company having apparently risen twenty times in a couple of years.

    That's got me scratching my head. Why would Kogan set up another on-line business selling basically the same products.
