Paul - things we agree on: 1) ADSP is a POS. 2) There is tension on both sides. However, there's what A@P has to say about the risks of shorting... Message 12123405 I agree with him 100%. And I don't have sympathy for anyone who bought at $50, whether a long or a covering short. However, if you are a long that bought at $50, the most you can lose is $30 when the stock drops to $20 at the open. Suck up the loss and move on. The shorts with margin calls are the ones that need to worry. Since the tension is so high, and since I have obviously stirred up a hornet's nest, I will retire for the evening to my favorite watering hole. I will drink a beer for the shorts with margin calls!

Well, I had the day off Friday. Heard about ADSP running up even before the market opened and thought..."Well why not try this for a little day trade?" I bought in at 25 and sold at 50 and walked around stunned the entire day. Some of my investor friends say this crazy stock is going to run up AGAIN Monday morning! Monday morning I won't be in my jammies - maybe it's good I'll be back at work and distracted. Will be interesting to see what happens.
