>Have a nice day. In fantasy land, that is. Hey chump, did I ever say I was short this market? In fact, I have been exclusively LONG this market for the last several months. Long through out of the money calls. But you know what? I know I'm participating in a giant pyramid scheme. I know it's going to collapse at some point. I know that these companies arent worth anything near the valuations the retailers and daytraders have temporarily propelled them to. But what gets my goat is when clowns like you come and tell the shorts that they are WRONG. The only thing that shorts need to understand is that it doesnt matter if they are right- these stocks are being forced up by a MANIA. Not by a correct guess about the revolutionary nature of the internet. You know, Bre-X bankrupted a lot of shorts.. So did presstek. You could be 100% right but 100% broke if you were short Bre-X just two days too early.. I guess, in closing, what I want to tell you is don't confuse a bull market with brains. And considering you work for the state department, don't confuse the largest injection of liquidity in the history of our country by alan greenspan, with a bull market! That idiot is doing everything he can to keep from being blamed when the inevitable crash occurs. And he's only making it worse the harder he tries to avoid resposibility. Hopefully, when this is over, the fed will be stripped of its powers and greenspan will take his place in history as the man who single handedly ruined our economy.
