<<So now are we progressing to guilt by association? >>

What is this "we" do you have a mouse in your shorts?

<<Conspiracy theories might have a lot of room to play out in your part of the country (Have you joined a militia yet?) but they don't play very well here.>>

I am not in a militia, and I don't give a how you say they play in Baltimore (BFD). <:} Seems to me that you have been attacking me at every chance you get, just because I have a different opinion. You appear to be biased against Westerners. Just because I am not a pablum fed dummy or guru groupie like many of you on this thread does not mean I belong to a militia.

<<First off what is the motivation?>>

I gave a possible motive but there are many possible motives try to open your closed mind or get your blinders off.

<<If you really read and understood any of Frank's posts I think that you would see that he has taken great pains to remain as unbiased as possible as towards ATHM.>>

You've got to be joking, the majority of his posts on this subject just spread doubt or are altogether negative. This shows you have a closed mind and are not willing to even consider my posts.

<<The only person whose credibility that you are questioning by questioning Frank's is your own. >>

I am sure this is true in your mind, try to open it.

<<I have to admit, if I had half a mil sitting in ATHM I'd be looking for someone to blame. Is it a half mil that turned into a quarter or a mil that turned into a half? Why not put the blame for this squarely where it belongs, on those people that actually have the ability to fundamentally change the company?>>

I don't like unfounded negative BS and propaganda. I don't really blame anyone in the company. I blame sniveling, cockroach, whimps who want instant reward. If they don't get it, they try to find fault with something about the company. The problem is that most people seem to want instant gratification, and they want to change something when they don't get what they want right now. If people are disappointed they sell the stock. Proof to that the average holding period for a stock has gone down and is about three weeks now. I like instant reward too, sometimes I am lucky and get it. I don't expect instant reward. I have said many times, I have no problem with the company or management. The stock price is now below my cost but that is really NBD. I believe the company is on track and I will get my reward later. Frank and Ah are not part of the set who expects an instant reward. It is reasonable to believe they have received or are working for a reward of some kind even if it is only as innocent as to want a bunch of groupies to adore them. <:}

<<What part of AH's post are you having trouble understanding, perhaps you need a little help from the rest of us here on the thread.>>

I will continue to point this out. If you have a problem with me exercising my free speech, I suggest you select ignore or next. If you wish to attack me you are doing very well. If you want to debate me then talk about something specific in what I wrote.

<<but I'd never accuse the writer of conspiring to bring the stock down.>>

Those are you words not mine. As Frank has said, I have been not been aiming for the head.

<< Doesn't it seem more direct to attack the ideas and concerns first hand? >>

I have seen a pattern of negativity in the ideas (posts). This should tell a reasonable person that the ideas are suspect.

<<Perhaps you don't feel even to the task>>

You got that right! If you would count the negative posts from the parties in question, I would have to hire three or four full time experts to shoot them down. Many of their posts occur during normal working hours like it is a full time job for them. I might be able to handle one or two posts but this is a case of baffle them with BS. I have other fish to fry such as making money the honest way.
