R. Thomas,
Well written post, you did.
[some thoughts of my own]
As long as hopeful shareholders hype the future with thick sweet honey, then the attention of those that need proof will hear "a calling".
My guess:
1/3 = those who really want to understand and communicate 1/3 = those who only want to hurt 1/3 = money interest, in shorting this stock
To me, those in the above top 1/3 are greeted with contempt because of the other 1/3's. Sad because if they remain for communication, then they will join the second 1/3. I will now go out on a limb and speculate that there was a SI threader that I, among others, put into the second 1/3, and I have a feeling that he started with good and honest intentions. My history here on SI is short in time, so without knowing his early posts I will say based on my limited knowledge, the SI threader Bill Jackson, who I have "attacked" with vigor, is most likely a good one, not a bad one , in that he wants to help not hurt. But, if so, events change appearances of some, and at times very difficult to undo wrong.
