Joel, babe:

I believe it has already been pointed out that:

1) there had been ample evidence of recent short covering

2) how easy it was to "cover" in this environment, i.e. no "squeeze" in
sight.>

About 1: Yes Joel (i'll type slowly, so you get it): when the number of shorts d-e-c-r-e-a-s-e, it is because of short covering. How much insight does a definition take?

About 2: Though there was "no sign of a squeeze in sight", does not explain why covering is happening now . If, as you contend, Iomega is such a no-good, bloated, hyped, overvalued hog of a stock - fated to be outdone by any company that can figure out how to spin a disk - why not ride it down to zero?

Your logic is getting a little ragged.
