Not that I really have to defend myself but things seem to have started around here where I responded to your post to kknight. You basically wished to minimize naked shorting or claim that it was minor compared to other abuses.

I didn't disagree totally with you but went on with my own theories about naked shorting.

From there, Kevin posted about "crying wolf," hardly a defense when investigations are just starting.

My response - agreeing in part

After that the pieces came about in the press about naked shorting. The shortie crew couldn't really attack the message so they ran posts attacking Bob O'Brien, whoever he is. Talk about "off topic" attacks.

I asked you about this

The guy pulled a good one, getting the attack dogs to go after him as they got lost at his fake casino address. I thought that was pretty cool.

Anyway, things went on from there.

Here's my point. I didn't bring up the topic. I agreed with you and said so in my early posts but raised other issues. When I questioned the value of attacking the leaders in the NSS awareness program, I started getting attacked. Go back over the thread if you don't believe me.

Yes, I responded to each personal attack but most here would as we see Tom C doing the same.
