Lonnie,
You may very well be right about Auric, but I'm still suspicious. He has posted some contradictory information, and he never has explained how he can be short a bunch of stock and yet not have to worry about "no stinkin' borrow", as I think he put it. I don't understand how anyone, even a market maker in the stock, can be short over a period of weeks and never have to come up with the stock, and yet, that is what Auric has said (or implied) he is doing.
It also makes me suspicious when he engages in the same childish name calling and posturing that Greg and "david travis" and the rest of that gang are engaging in. Why would someone with a lot of money involved, supposedly, engage in such behavior, unless it was intended to polarize things and cause people to act emotionally (i.e., non-rationally)? Are we to believe that all these supposedly professional investors are really so immature? I find it hard to swallow, personally.
Anyway, as you say, it is quite entertaining, and I will certainly continue to follow it until what I expect will be its ignominious ending. Brent's post today certainly is a good description of what is actually going on with the company, in my opinion.
