To all dear ASND Shorts:

It is not the end yet. Just want to tell you how the longs like me suffered during these last few months and hope this will ease your anxiety. I started a position with one thousand shares at 54 last year, when it dropped to 43 I doubled, then went to 37, I added another 1K on margin, when it went to 26 I got a margin call and had to sell. But when it went to 23 and change. My account, (with other losers such as coms and nscp) went to only about 1/4 of the original value in about 4 months. Pain, pain, pain. I kicked myself and swallowed the bitterness, almost thought of quitting investing and terminate my own life. Painful. So who knows, one of these days, Darren may laugh again, if he and his fellow shorts can hang on tough and not get margin calls. I am sure a volatile stock like asnd may actually see some down days in the future.

Again draft beer for every body,

CJ
