Tony,

Say it isn't so...Tony will be Tony and I will continue to be me. I'm not here to judge anyone, even though I do sometimes. I have come to learn that there is value in buying and selling stocks and also in selling and buying stocks. There is a place for both. The very possibility of shorting helps to keep prices in line, overall. Shorts do have to cover, sometime...most of the time, which helps to provide a clearer floor and better bounces. Frequently, shorts help people to see shortcomings of companies. Sometimes, they are wrong, or even deceitful, but I have not seen this as often as I have seen deceitful pumping...except from analysts, that is. They go both ways!

I'm not here to argue philosophy, only to say I learned a lot from Tony and others here. I can spot bad companies much more easily now and avoid buying or short them. I can also spot better companies more easily than before and go long.

I am glad Tony was here for a while and I hope Mary and the kids get along OK. If Tony is innocent of the charges, I hope he gets it all back. If not, then well, not.

Stay in the Black! jimS
