It's worth noting of course, that you're simply crowing because your little PoS that you spammed went up a bit in the past few days. Lucky you. As people have already pointed out—who cares, and why are you so whiny about people reading this thread potentially missing it? A little less pump for your dump got you upset? Could have easily gone the other way—at least you wouldn't be bothering us with another dozen messages, over the past several days, about your poor plight of the guy who made some money on a med stock and is unhappy because others didn't want to hear about it on an unrelated thread. Boo 'F'ing hoo. But let's fairly and properly address the rest of your blather:

Great! I'll look for your autobiography on Amazon.com

I'll buy a copy

GRUB! 6969

I always wanted a 6969. Graduated in 69 and going to my 30th reunion in 2 months.

Sorry. Just enjoying the moment.

GPSite, I was just curious about this quote of yours regarding VXGN: "Why did Paul Allen buy 800,000 shares (some on the open market AFTER the IPO)? Is he an idiot? Are his investigators naive?" #reply-10512863.

Here's a question for you: what company did Paul Allen recently invest about $300 million in and do you think he was an idiot for doing so?

P.S. Hint: One division of the company hosts a web site full of sheep.

P.P.S. Oh, by the way, could you please document what you wrote about Paul Allen buying so much of VXGN over on the VXGN site? If true, I do think it speaks volumes.

GPSite, ignore the second "PS". I just finished reading the VXGN thread and found the link in #reply-10513915 showing that Paul Allen did indeed buy 800K shares in VXGN. Guess that makes SI/GNET and VXGN cousins. (g)
