Here's another one for you.

I am Cheeky Kid, the creator of the cyber "Smooch!" here on Silicon Investor.

I am the one responsible for love, peace, harmony on the threads (well maybe not the Y2K threads).

There will be many new marriages in the coming years all because of the cyber SMOOCH! on SI:

Everybody's doing it!

GPSite,

You apparently are functioning under the misconception that all of us who post here on this thread do so with an eye towards profiting from our shared communications. Let me assure you that (on this thread) that is most definitely *not* true.

The threads that are devoted to discussing stocks are likely loaded with folks who like yourself, post messages, hoping to glean some tidbit of information from which they might realize some income. This thread is not a stock thread. It is in the Coffee Shop area.

I am not like other posters. That I missed any run-up in Vax-Gen is of no concern to me at all. I am a long term, buy-and-hold type of investor. I actually shun short term profits, and the accompanying risks inherent in short term investing. Quite simply put, VaxGen *is* an opportunity, just not *my* opportunity. I have very strict guidelines for investing that I employ in my strategies. I am very comfortable with the way in which I invest, and have no qualms whatsoever about missed opportunities. And I'd be willing to wager that most of the other folks that post here regularly feel the same way as I do, regardless of their individual investment styles (day-traders, short term investors, long term investors, income investors, etc.).

It is beyond me why you would have such audacity to believe that everyone thinks as you think, and invests as you invest. Congratulations to you on your profits (presuming you took some profits), and use your gains wisely, as *you* see fit.

KJC

>I hope I am intelligent enough to understand the wisdom of this sacred site....

You keep trying to rationalize the legitimacy of posting a message pertaining to a stock on a thread that specifically exists for another purpose.

How did Covey put it? Seek first to understand, then to be understood. If you would practice the former you would realize the fallacy of your arguments. Nonetheless, I suspect you'll remain.........

I hope I am intelligent enough to understand the wisdom of this sacred site
Obviously not!

You've now all lost the opportunity of a 60% profit in three days
No we didn't! You see, I keep most of my money in GNET, your lookin at it kid! Done a heck of a lot more that 60% and still climbing.

What makes you think you are the only person capable of picking a stock. Who crowned you the new SI Guru (Grew)? You have a lot of proving before we put that title on you.

Your profile is incomplete....I figure you must be in your late teens, have yet to finish school, and just started working with the market.

Come on back in a couple of years, but take your stock tips to the appropriate thread. Maybe then you'll find someone to listen to you.
