<I reiterate my STRONG SELL/SHORT SELL recommendation.> LOL Bill. Who do you think you are, an analyst for Merrill Lynch? LMAO. If you were, you would have been fired for getting the company in trouble for libel. Let's face it. Any small-timer that is dumb enough to listen to you and try to short GUMM probably can't find stock to borrow. Anybody who is long gives you absolutely zero credibility because you haven't provided any sound reasons for them to sell their stock much less short it. The people who own enough GUMM to move it down if they sold wouldn't give you the time of day with your piss-poor "analysis". I have talked to people who own 15,000, 20,000, 50,000, and 300,000 shares of GUMM. Do you really think anyone who owns that much GUMM hasn't done their homework? The person who owns 300,000 shares is the former CEO, Dick Ratcliff. A short seller on Yahoo posted some BS a few months ago that Mr. Ratcliff was shorting against the box because his stock was restricted and he couldn't sell it on the open market. I called Mr. Ratcliff and he told me that the only time he has ever sold GUMM was to pay part of his taxes. He gave me his permission to post that I spoke to him, that he said he has never shorted GUMM, that he believes in the long term future of the company, and that he plans to hold his stock. Short sellers have been posting lies and nonsense about GumTech since the stock was at 5. The longs just said you're full of it and have bid the stock up based on the future for nicotine gum and Zicam. If you want credibility, then post something credible. So far all you have posted are negative buzz words and libelous accusations that aren't supported by any evidence whatsoever. Your sell reiteration is a joke. Good luck with your losing short position. The daily, weekly, and monthly charts are all very bullish and I understand some funds have been buying the stock recently. Dan
