<<<Are you anybody important?>>>

Are you taking reservations for some pretentious Hollywood restaurant? What the hell kind of question is that?

<<<or just a guy who has his own thread?>>

Are you implying that a guy with his own thread can't be "important"? I'm confused. I'm suddenly beginning to feel all this existensial angst....

<<<Are you just an internet person?>>>

Is this some new form of hominid (Homo Nerdus?)

<<<Anyhow....some folks think that IDX went down today because of you......and your strong sell short sell deal.>>>

I see. I guess the fact that it's a zero-growth company with a grossly overinflated stock price hasn't got anything to do with it.

<<<Perhaps the Motorola news is fraudulent?>>>

No. But it really isn't anything to get excited about. However, the Gilford report is fraudulent.

<<<You may not have this one right, Bill.>>>

Then again...I may, Brad.

<<<I have the same problem with the word scummer.>>>

I don't, since there is no such word.

<<<I would be very quick to call you a scummer short, without really knowing......Do you know what I mean?>>>

No...no I don't know what you mean. You completely lost me. Without really knowing what? What does "scummer" mean? Is this another trick question?

<<<I'll stop back in a while>>>

Brad, you really have no idea how much I'm looking forward to that, not to mention the readers of this thread who I figure are just snorting their coffee out through their noses right now from laughing so hard.

<<<You may be all covered up and surprised as heck.....>>>

I like you. You're kind of a groovy, mellow version of Robert Yoest on Valium.

You failed to mention IDX's new partnership with Motorola to develop authentication chips for cell phones and palm pilots.....and the rest of the hardware that will enable remote data access.

Perhaps the Motorola news is fraudulent?


I'm surprised you'd bring up mighty MOT to bolster your case, as many of their affiliates have gone in the tank. Perhaps you've not heard of IRID?

Another great one is NSPK, which was a great short last year from 30 down to 5, right after MOT tendered for a chunk of their shares.

Tell us another scary story, Brad.
