O/T Rory; it's not the picks.... it's the whining & the Blame Game ! Rory; ... this does not need to continue - I made my point; but you evidently didn't get it... you were certainly NOT attacked by the way. I am not in anyway criticizing your picks - I think I went out of my way in saying that... all fine choices - no problems with any of them.... my comments were ENTIRELY in reference to your weak-knee'd capitulation on RRC & MEXP - and pointing the finger towards me in reference to MEXP/RRC ''hype'' et al. You initiated a dialogue with your cheap shot. << So don't give me this bullshit you are holding em for the long term through thick and thin...>> I've never said that I hold anything through thick & thin...and I never, ever changed my opinion on MEXP fundamentally; technically - yes; fundamentally no ! In answering a question to someone; I merely posted ''my'' OPINION on what ''I" would do if I were holding MEXP into what evolved from 3 days of low volume trading - from just 15,000 shares traded on tuesday; into a blow off of 225K plus shares on Wednesday - which was a 15 FOLD increase in volume from the day before by the way ! So let's remember that FACT - MEXP had sold off nearly 30% over the last few weeks - and had a one day 15 fold increase in selling volume the day before I even ever addressed the issue. We went into a freefall sell off on thursday - after the selloff was clearly established; I then made my comment. A major selloff was allready under way - period. I was not the cause, nor even a factor in MEXP's selloff. This is the most idiotic and whiney, cry babyesque - BS that I have ever seen... I ''hyped'' & caused the MEXP sell off.... ludicrous. It was all ready underway - had been for a damn month ! What I did was to make an ''unemotional'' call of stepping aside; getting out into the face of a total blow off; and waiting to verify that there was not coming news etc. before re-entering. When that was verified - I made a call of ''re-entering'' . The maximum ''cost'' to potentially avoiding that freefall selloff - was 1/8th ! You and these lunatics on Yahoo are bitching & moaning about an 1/8th ! You can buy MEXP at the open cheaper than any trading day (except the thurs-fri action here) than we have had in the last 45+ days ! So; Where's the Beef ? I put my money where my mouth is as well - I bought and will continue to buy MEXP very heavilly - averaging in all the way up, on dips, or weakness as we head toward the Oct 15th meeting with the BOM for the Credit Line redetermination and the release of Q3. It would not be too optimistic to potentially expect an analyst upgrade at that time from Raymond James by the way either.. Bank on it; $3 MEXP will seem like a long lost bargain before this one is done... MeThinks thou dost protest too much - and suggest looking in thine own mirror a little more often... that's all. Good Luck
