Listen my friend. Several people in the Creaf thread accused me of spreading false information to manipulate a stock (which is illegal for anyone to do), and kindly offered to sue me. Now, let me first say that I have spread no false information nor tried to manipulate a stock. Nor have I done anything wrong or illegal. But everyday, there are a hundred thousand people in this country spending hundreds of thousands of dollars defending themselves in court against unjust accusations. You tell me why I should risk joining that crowd by posting the direction of a revision, thereby stating an opinion about the stock and opening myself up to lawsuits by anyone who wants to try to build a case that I am manipulating a stock? If you have looked around SI, you surely have seen that I have shared that information where I have not been threatened with lawsuits.

Now here you go, accusing me of being a liar, just like so many in the Creaf thread. I am not a liar. I have never lied. You should apologize for personally attacking me and unjustly calling me a liar.

Or how about just plain accountable? The amount of shabby analysis that is potentially very harmful because someone might read it and invest on it is simply amazing. When I see that, it troubles me that this harm may occur, so I criticize those poorly thought out and misleading ideas. If people cannot deal well with criticism of their ideas, they should not post.
As for personal attacks, you are fooling yourself if you do not see that the personal and juvenile attacks against me have been far worse than any from me.
When it comes to clutter, let me just say that, to me, 85% of the posts at Creaf contain completey useless, if not misleading ideas and information. I have to wade through them, and I do so without whining. Besides, the volume of complaints about my posts exceeds my posts by a ratio of about 10 to 1. If anyone wants to cut down on clutter, I can think of a good place to start.
At least you, unlike many others, have had the decency to take me up on my request that you bring any personal conversations over here to LVB, where there are no rules.
Happy Investing!
