Bear, I have no problem with well behaved short sellers...

It is most certainly the best and safest way to make money in today's market, particularly when you benefit from the synergies offered by a "wolf pack" structure. Sorry, I can't bring myself to call it a "Club", like Anthony.

The problem I am doing something about, (because I just happen to have time, money and morality on my side) is when short sellers want to have their cake and eat it too, by conspiring to defraud investors of their hard earned money through stock manipulations. As you well know, they do this by lying, misrepresentations, innuendos, threats, intimidation, harassment of stockholders on the thread, etc...Often, they are money managers, unregistered by the SEC. If I have my way, some will end up in jail after disgorging their ill-gotten gains.

Also note that, although SI cannot be expected to monitor everything, if they have been notified that someone is using certain threads as a publishing medium for unlawful material and a law suite follows, questions will be asked as to why they did not act.

My advice to you if you want to avoid guilt by association, is to leave my stomping grounds alone. It's that simple. F. Goelo + + +
