Bash, bash, bash &#151that's all you ever do. You post all the time on these threads, so therefore you must not be tall. Additionally, you don't post with a real name, so you certainly aren't a tall credible investor. Can't you just be "Bob" or "Hermi&#241a" or somebody with a real name&#151somebody who is tall? It doesn't have to be true, ya know.

All kidding aside, though, I really love it when the shills go for the sympathy play (usually by PM):

>>&#147Does it make you feel good knowing that my kids can't go to college now that you've said something bad about this stock?&#148 (is that really possible?)

Uh, gee&#151do you feel good risking your kid's education (if you're really telling the truth) on a shipshod mining company where the only hole with gold in it is the CEO's wife?

>>&#147My 80-year-old in-laws are in this and now you've wrecked their retirement by not liking this stock.&#148 (is that really possible?)

Uh, yeah. People who actually lived through the Great Depression eagerly throw their money, in 1998, into a two-bit Y2K/kitty litter venture, with a CEO whose previous experience was being Campbell Soups' MeatPuppet&#153?

And of course, the ubiqitious &#147So what's your penny stock pick?&#148

Well, shucks. My picks might be good or they might be totally naff. But Mrs. Ulrich didn't raise any kids with the crappy moral fibre it takes to suck people into something just to make a good exit. So it doesn't really matter what my picks are. Following PiedPipers was never a family-encouraged attribute, any more than being one.

THINK! It give you something to do whilst the computer is re-booting.
