Marty:

I will not respond to your personal attack except to say that I showed you in the same post how I held a stock (KIDE) through a time when I could have sold it for a loss and now it has doubled. Was it a loss? No. I now have it at 18 for a 100% gain. Is it a gain yet, Marty, if I have not sold? No. Have I insulted you? Go over the previous posts. The answer should be "no" until now.

You said you were familiar with the E4L business plan but it was clear by what you wrote that either you were not, or that you were illiterate and could not express yourself through written word. I gave you the benefit of the doubt. I think you can say what you want here, but I would match my savvy, IQ, and knowledge of economics over yours any day.

I am indeed an amateur. Luckily, I make a decent living and this is play for me. I am not a desperate whiner who cannot wait out a dip in price that I view as temporary. If I felt it were hopeless, I would sell and move on - you can do that. Nobody made you buy it and nobody but you are responsible for your sale. Is that stupid, too? Are you a pro? If you are a pro and you are responding to me with your unlearned questions and your publicly stated unwillingness to listen to the vcall.com to try and really understand what leverage is, then you are even more laughable. Do you deny your responsibilty as an adult?

You wrote here Message 8077101 that you thought ETV should sell time it has already bought from TV stations to others. What kind of understanding does this show about their basic business? Call Lehman with this suggestion and see what he says. He probably would ask you to clarify your question because he would be incredulous that you could state that and mean it literally. Then he would laugh you off the phone.

What, Marty, would you call someone who does not do their own DD and publicly states that ("I really should listen to the vcall before I comment BUT...") Message 7907949 ?

If you going to state that you have a rule that you won't go into a deal that has doctors in it, perhaps you should get out of the market entirely. THAT is about the most stupid thing I ever heard. Many doctors own stock in IBM. Are you out yet? <<It confirms my long standing rule never to go into a deal that has a doctor in it.>>https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=8192747 Gee, Marty, just what kind of deal are you talking about? I think you might be talking about personal decisions to buy a NYSE company which I have no other affiliation with other than as a stockholder? Are you suggesting some other "deal"?

By the way, how is HEB doing?

Your analysis on the stock covers how long? That shows a lot of economic prowess. Most successful investors will tell you to buy when others are selling and sell when others are buying (https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=8183920). And what is the timeframe for the market speaking, Marty? Is that a static thing? Do you really, in your great understanding of markets, view them as static?

You belong on the Yahoo board. This is supposed to be a place for intelligent discussion about stocks. Your post to me is a break from that and I have responded in kind. I will no longer trade insults with you except to suggest that perhaps you can petition GNET and see if they will give you your money back on a stupidity contingency. Don't buy their stock - I know a doctor who owns some.
