Sheila,

I celebrate no one's losses in IOM. (save one a**hole on the Yahoo thread). Please do not mistake my happiness about IOM's decline as a lack of respect for the vast majority of IOM investors. I am making money as IOM goes down, and I am happy about this. Let me ask you this- would you be as "sensitive" towards me and my short position if IOM stock were to all of a sudden go to $20/share on Monday? I think I would be hearing the "Hurrah's!!" all the way down during my leap from the Williamsburg Bridge.

IMO, if one is taking personal offense at negative comments about a stock, then that is the time to get out of it. An emotional attachment to a stock is obviously a very dangerous thing. And IOM is a stock that is very easy to get emotionally attached to. A great many people are drawn to the very seductive story behind the Iomega name. But sadly, the story is not panning out exactly like they said it would.
