No, we want to hear any kind of news. So far that's only come from the company for the past three months. Unless you consider an unsuccessful fund manager's opinion in his monthly rag "news".

No recent news has been provided by you, me, or Jive, or any anyone else on this board for that matter. Just opinions. Some from a seven year old with five posts over the past year. Now that's an opinion I really want to hear.

CCCrawford,

"As for the thread, I didn't realize it was solely a bull thread and that you guys want to hear nothing but good news."

This is exactly my point. This thread stands apart from the Yahoo! thread because each poster tries to present a balanced view on all of the available information. It becomes most effective when it is not a shouting match between shorts and longs.

I am long. It appears that you do not agree with the long view. I have explained why I am long because that is the view that I best understand. I am not in love with this company. If I can be persuaded then I will sell or even short it. If you are short then let us discuss that. Have you closed your short? Do you feel it will decline when earnings are released and why?

The only reason I am still bullish for the long-term (5-10 years out) is that I have not been persuaded by the arguments and especially not by the rumors. Help me and the thread to understand your position.

Sincerely,
Terrapin
