I too welcome open debate... But, there should be rules.
Laz, I agree 100%. One of the disappointments I have had on this board (of many) is that it is impossible to have honest open debate of the pros and cons. You did a masterful job of laying those out, from a personal viewpoint, and yet those who claim they are on the con side do not use those cons. Instead they will talk about empty rice bowls in Indonesia, about Egypt being nothing but sand, about DGIV being a scam, etc, and I have neither time nor interest in a debate at that level of ignorance and incompetence.
I am long, and I have an intellectual reason for my position, so obviously I am going to espouse it. Growth sector, undervalued company, joint ventures, etc etc. That does not mean that I have ignored the cons, it means I have weighed them and decided the risk was worth it. The cons include the world economy, competition, does DGIV have sufficient capital to execute their business plan, MM games, etc etc. For some of these cons, we do not know, we will only know after the financials are out, so that is why I think this is still a high risk investment, but one that for me -- personally -- it is still worth taking the chance on.
But I have ZERO interest in debating the rice condition in Indonesia, lies about calls to JC, blatant statements about a scam with no evidence supplied, our being paid to post here, etc.
Unfortunately, many view investing in an OTC stock on an intellectual basis as a hype or being a stock manipulator. Well, they can kiss my a##.
