Sorry dude, better to wake up now with some $ left. Come to the dark side rightousness. Ask Mr. CM Burns, he is a very loyal and intelligent convert.

Why not? Nice things didn't happen (to your friend), did they?

Gabriel--Auric gets slandered, insulted, and sued by people who are making high risk plays, paid touts, and people he is truly trying to protect. I think a certain cynicism creeps in. I know it has for me. On both SI and Yahoo boards I have told people I was shorting a stock and why. I also told them they were going to get reamed. On SI I get called an evil (or some variation of that) short. On Yahoo it is every obscenity in the book. It will keep up even after what I said was going to occur happens. Auric gets it far worse as he is higher profile. Auric may not have picked the most diplomatic of phrasing but certainly someone who is getting that kind of beating in their portfolio needs to really start studying why he is losing so much. All the Best Druss
