Non-Tech : Auric Goldfinger's Short List -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

"Gum Tech said that their sales in Q4 are already more than three times that in Q3."

BFD. All fad stocks have their glory quarter. Whether they make money in Q4 doesn't matter. The fact is that they will STILL be a NET money LOSER for the year. Next year, once people figure out that Ziscam is crap, they once again will be a NET money LOSER.

If you want to prove me wrong, then tell GUMM to publish statistically VALID clinical studies that prove their claims. Otherwise, you can cram your tempter tantrums up your nose.

As for my "losing short position", the last time I checked I was at break even. I suspect I won't have to wait very long before I am soundly in the black, which is more than anybody with a rational mind can say about GUMM.

Your Buddy,

Hank

(as he sits strapped into his computer chair like an F14 fighter pilot, waiting for the g force behind GUMM's next rally to blow his short position away! LOL!)

No, Dan, he cannot read, or often chooses not to if indeed he can.

As to the idiot stuff, well...

Do they have a Pokemon-like character for the elderly with active imaginations?

>Most of your posts contain nothing but opinions that you state as facts, yet you have the audacity to accuse me of doing that.

Dan,

What you described, unfortunately, fits an all-too-common pattern.

For example, in the October 18th issue of Time magazine, Ted Kaczynski, the infamous Unabomber, today in the "Supermax" prison in Colorado, still maintains he did nothing wrong, and blames his imprisonment on his brother, David, for turning him in.

A-friggin'-a-mazing!

Yet this type of crap happens frequently, and on a less dramatic scale, day-in-and-day-out. Such as you just described.

I think that people who do the most outrageous crimes, are the ones most Unlikely to see the damage they do.

Your're on the right track here. I'm not so sure, however, that your efforts will make any difference. No one has gotten through to the Unabomber as yet. Some folks are simply not reachable, and are impervious to reason. Yet they need to be exposed for the danger they pose to others. So in that regard, I wish you well. Keep up the good work. Don't let the bastards grind you down.
