Here's the most recent people marked list from Nov 99 Message 11768354 Of course A@P, dear mr. p and Auric (along with J shell, Floydie and Pluvia aka zsun 8 among others)are appropiatly listed And your claim that noone cares Message 14030807 your words I stand by my assertion that the vast majority of SI's couldn't care less about Floyde and the rest. Anyway in the short vs. long debate when it comes to the pump and dump......two problems exist......one is the pumpers (be they the company or 3rd parties, eg CHST), and #two are the unknowing retail longs, who are either gamblers, betting on the pump to continue or fools in that they are unaware of their role (as the loyal longs) in the distribution phase. Time does settle these debates, in that companies that add to shareholder value justify their valuation via revenue growth and earnings.......the others crash and burn, not because of short sellers, because those who supported the pump distributed and took their profits leaving suckers behind. The SEC intends to create transparency about a companies activities for the benifit of the public. These lawsuits (eg HITT and ZSUN) are intended to eliminate this transparency.......under the guise of advancing shareholder(read current shareholder) interests........which is of course to find buyers willing to accept shares being distributed. The well written article in the WSJ referenced earlier provides unique insight how major players on Wall Street has been drawn into the bubble mentality in their pursuit of profit and fame, to the expense of a uninformed (and greedy) public who purchace these junk issues without a understanding of what they are getting into. The efforts of Floydie and others should be commended as they are providing visibility to views that buy side analysts are blinded to out of either greed or fear. mad2
