<<If CC is not selling short against the block, and CC did not sell the paper or part of it to someone else, then the typical death spiral scenario should not develop. That is actually worry some, because it indicates that someone else with a major position has become disenchanted with the company and is unloading its long position.>> You, me, and the lamp post know that this statement is completely false. We see the short position increasing by leaps and bounds with each passing month. The source of the shares is clearly shorts selling, not longs unloading. We are not that stupid. The selling volume is not some mysterious "disenchanted" share unloading company, IT IS A CAREFULLY PLANNED AND ORCHESTRATED SHORT ATTACK TRYING TO FORCE A DEATH SPIRAL. CC ain't playing, looks like you guys got several million shares to find somewhere, and soon. You can have half of mine, for $20, last chance, they'll look cheap before you finish covering.

"Round up the usual suspects!" How about this for hilarity? In this post you wrote me: If CC is not selling short against the block, and CC did not sell the paper or part of it to someone else, then the typical death spiral scenario should not develop. That is actually worry some, because it indicates that someone else with a major position has become disenchanted with the company and is unloading its long position. Wow, with clear signs of shorting and market manipulation evident in the stock trading, you blame the disenchanted longs! Yeah, sure, longs just love to dump huge amounts of stock on the bid at regular intervals. Reminds of the ending scene in Casablanca... After seeing Bogart standing there holding the smoking gun, Claude Rains pronounces "Round up the usual suspects!"
