I will repeat for hopefully the last time to you mind readers, I am
not short Ballard. At a $4B market CAP I do not think Ballard will topple in the short term nor will it go much higher until its split
and the Brokers can get the grandmothers and their grandchildren in with their penny savings. The volatility has been very GOOD!

Anyone who posts anything that is of a negative or cautious nature
gets the treatment by certain of those who are long. It also shows up in other NGs too. Check out the COMS thread, AMD, TDFX.
No one tells the other to go start another thread for shorts. Just don't read the message all it takes is a mouse click on the "NEXT"!

>>>I know that you feel that BLD is ready to topple, so
you insist on trying to post to the best of your ability,
negative aspects in such a way that you create such an
antagonistic feeling that most just give you nasty responses
back instead of actually really trying to debate in a healthy constructive manner.

Maybe when you feel the need to play the down side, share your strategy with the others so that we can also protect our investment if we so wish. <<<

I just post an opinion with some information. I am not a registered
representative and thus can not distribute financial advise. It is
up to the reader to formulate thier own opinion from all available
public information.

>>>Maybe when you feel the need to play the
down side, share your strategy with the others so that we can
also protect our investment if we so wish. Others will do the
same. I'm sure others would like to share strategy to your
benifit just the same. If none of this appeals to you, maybe
I can suggest that you post your short strategies and advice to
other threads that focus on the short-option plays.<<<<

All this animosity comes from those who just cannot come up with
anything solid to justify the $4B Market cap. So they attack whoever has a word of caution. I already reasoned that with a $4B market Cap
Ballard already has alot of expectations built into it. Ballard
is almost twice as large as Cummins Diesel a highly rated manufacturer
of diesel engines and FOUR Times as large as Volkswagen.
Ballard should takeover Volkswagen and get into the Auto Biz. :-)
Cheap FC powered Beetles made in Mexico. 1 Ballard share for 4 VW share.

Fuel Cells are even more complicated than IC engines. A quick engine builder can slap together an IC engine in an hour and have it running.
A FC power plant has a lot of plumbing to deal with connecting all the individual fuel cells up. And as they get larger they get more complicated. How much Platinum and how many plates will a 1 MegaWatt FC use up??

If Ballard comes up with a Fuel Cell Power Plant and can start
trials or even sell some then I see some more upside in the
power biz and then boost the share price back over U$XXX post split.
Depending on how they compared with the IFC Power Plant.

>>>This is all IMHO. I would rather have healthy debate that is
a benefit to all rather than all this animosity that does
not achieve anything.<<<
