I simply believe that a lot of what we see is illusion generated by people who are 'against' us. Any small investor or 'off the street' type should be aware of this. After spending many years watching this stock and the people associated with it. I think it's incumbent on a potential investor to understand the nature of this play. Long term is years, many of them. And even then it's very far from a sure bet. We have watched people become disappointed after months of waiting, and leave losing their shirts. Recently, in the last year, we have had fewer of those as the price has not taken the dramatic falls of the past, but still we see decent people getting screwed. I post to make people aware of what I see, and feel are the games and pitfalls. The reasons that Long is very long, and 'quick cash' may not be spelled PVF. Negative, or Realistic? I don't know myself sometimes. I do not post to drive individuals away or attract them. I don't much care if you are short or long. I would, however, like people to know the nature of what they are considering a bit better than 'Oh boy, oh boy I'm gonna get rich by (name any coming holiday or month)! As I've said before I do not see this thread as a being a 'market mover'. We may have some impact, but that which drives the price is played out on levels far above this; and by cabals with more power and money than we have access to. They use us to certain extent, and we do the rest to ourselves. So I try not to have an 'angle'. I'll make mine someday. And I hope you and others make theirs. What's important is that we don't try and make our own at the expense of each other. That part is BS, it doesn't really work, and makes us all look petty, mean, and like tiny little VSE Scumbaggers. regards, Yorikke
