Rainer:

I agree with Roger to a degree. Problem is there's always at least one idiot on a thread that will attack the messenger when the messenger is posting negative info. My experience has been that the "idiots" aren't really sure why they are long in the first place so when they are challenged they lash out with a bunch of short baiting BS.

The key is to seek out "the ax" (the poster with the biggest following) on the thread and engage them in a discussion of the relative merits of the stock. If "the ax" resorts to personal attacks to rebutt your short side arguments then you know you're on to something.

FWIW, CCSI has been making the circles as a good short for a while now. It was featured in a theStreet.com story a couple of months ago. I highly recommend theStreet.com for those interested in finding good shorts. It's the most "short-centric" publication I've seen.
