LaShark: Don't expect a civil response. Anytime someone suggests calling certs, certain people, and btw they are always the same people, will shout you down.
I have even heard it from the people that do the naked shorting that this is the only certain way to counter it.
The reason I believe it doesn't work is because usually these BB squeezes are masterminded by amatuers.
The ones that have worked ktel, resorts int'l, presstek, iom, were done by the pros.
In addition, they (to my knowledge) don't have all this "publicity" before they spring the trap.
The BB's have these "mini" squeezes, I believe, but then either the company breaks it too soon by issueing shares, or the hamburger players break it by taking what they consider enough money, and that is usually a dollar or two.
