Perhaps you or Detroit could tell me where does CAT come into it on this board,( I dont see any pussy here ), or, where this famous spamming of my posts has been done on other SI threads? I have not received one request, out of common courtesy, for permission to do so, not even an acknowledgement!! In the past, I have received compliments by way of such references, and, on the other hand,I have been the subject of plagiaristic referral, and would you believe, have received messages from other SI posters telling me of the lengths which some SHORTS will go to discredit their opposition. I wonder, which if any, of the above positions, this CAT is PURRING from???? The IrishCanineLover!!! MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEaaaaaaaaaaaooooooooooooWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

OK! Gotcha now! I stand by that posting, and I think a lot of people will empathise with it, and others will perhaps get a better feel for the ETERNAL conflict between the two positions i.e. Long versus Short!!! The real PRO SHORT puts his money on the line, and I think a lot of people would have a lot of respect for the GAMBLE this sometimes is, however grudgingly at first, which I must say I was until I got a better understanding of their position!! But a WEAK share like FCM, with no performance to speak of, and based on a gamble by us that they have a product that will make it big with future profits to boot, is SOMETIMES infiltrated by the VIRUS of WOULD BE shorts, who put no money on the line, (i.e. dont risk selling short) and adopt SHORT tactics on threads like here and RBULL, in the hope of using behaviour likely to cause a breach of the peace, as was evidenced by one shareholder on Raging Bull yesterday, who admitted he'd had enough, could'nt take any more, sold his shares, played into the AMATEUR shorts' hands, and said goodbye to the thread!!! Shorts, if that's what you could call them, bashing a share down, by any means allowed, when the company is weak, in the hope of becoming LONGS at a price that suits their pocket!!! Dont tell me this does'nt happen, it does, and sooner or later, the company shows the strength to overcome it, or it does'nt!! The IrishPontificator!!!
