Buckeye...I agree it is ridiculous to label people shorters just because they don't share the same viewpoint or sell when others hold.

I find that people often follow a stock they hold no interest in. And they may take a contrary view...with major doses of skepticism. Personally I see this as healthy. I believe in the axiom Never Fall in Love with a Stock! I don't even love my AOL...even though it has made me a major profit. However, I do tend to be a long term holder in most of the stocks I own.

Penny stocks are placed in a different category for me, personally.
They are highly speculative and very risky. The trick is to sell when you feel comfortable. Some may sell immediately, some may sell after holding for years. It is a personal choice. As long as people understand the risks...they must live with their decisions.

Okay, that said...you have made your stand. You have let us know that you have traded this stock. You have warned others. Now, it is becoming more of an antagonistic situation.

The more gentlemenly thing to do...is say your piece, say it nicely and then move on. Now, if you have some substantial bit of information on this company, or would like to offer up decent opinions...then by all means share it. But a blow by blow ticker announcement is not needed or desired when it is coupled with taunting.

I believe you completely that you are not shorting this stock. I hope this makes you feel vindicated, and you can stop making your case now.

Thanks for your cooperation,
Mary
