Tony, I apologize if I have lead you to believe that I make investment decisions based solely on this thread. I "weigh" information. I make decisions based on input from many sources. This thread plays a role in the decision making process as do the individual posters.

>>Only if they believe that what they read must be true based on a 'profile' that has no independent verification.<<

There are methods of independent verification.

>>I really doubt that anyone makes an investment decision based solely on what they read on this thread. That you feel that this is actually possible is unbelievable.<<

I also doubt that someone would make an investment decision based "solely" on this thread. I do believe that it can have an influence.

Tony, are you aware of any instances where forums or Internet discussions have influenced a stock price? Or do you believe that people engage in discussions of stock for reasons other than making investment decisions? There are some who believe that the Iomega stock price was influenced by Internet discussions.

Regards

Zeuspaul
