Roger,

Thanks for being so civil in your posts to this thread.

Most shorts making an appearance here, have had enough collective bad breath to make a skid row bum cringe. They add nothing to the debate, excelling in name calling and FUD. Why is it necessary for them to do this? How can we have any respect for them when they have no respect for us?

Shorting is an important function within the market. After all a short is a future buyer of the stock. They are the rocket fuel when the stock turns northward. Just look at what happened to the RMBS shorts. Most shorting is done in the ST while most longs found here are LT. We could care less if someone wants to short the stock.

You are a breath of fresh air. Please stop by often. We might even turn you into a long. <g>

Jim (very long ELON)
