Why don't you learn to spell before you pimp your worthless stock.

OFF TOPIC Yo, hypester dude: Thanks for tipping me off. Couple questions:
You've been on SI for less than a week, and you have a "large following" you have not told yet, but you are giving the CMGI folks first crack at your stupid POS BB carp stock? Is this a large following of squirrels that are interested in your acorn?
You have some sort of information about some deal that isn't known publicly? If that is so, how about finding out the balance sheet and the debt structure and the outstanding shares for this amazing "acorn" and posting that? That's what I'd be interested in.
"...in talks with Fujutsu [sic], IBM, and Microsoft?" Heavy, dude. What does that mean, exactly? They wrote to those companies asking for business? Are you an insider?
Are you a paid hypester? I know it's a dumb question, because it's hard to imagine someone hiring you, but I gotta ask. After the Time Machine BB scam, you never know.
Oh, and by the way, it's kinda illegal to trade on inside information. And it's also illegal to be hyping a stock without fully and accurately disclosing your compensation.
But it's only annoying to tell someone that can spell two syllable words that you know something they don't.
Back to the basement, Action Jackson, you missed a few semesters at Hypester State.
Thnaksss in Avdanse.
