I think the good Barron is lost, I believe the post was meant for the Intuit board.

Good God, Now we have the shorts posting their BS on SI - where they have to pay. I expect we will see another all-out short attack today. Wait for it and, if you can, profit from it! Isn't it marvelous how these guys can get their hands on so many shares? I mean, we must be short well over 6 million shares after yesterday. Too bad that we can get the long and short numbers on a daily basis. How hard could that be in today's world? Now, if the market could know daily which stocks are being shorted and which are being 'covered', don't you think that this info would help to even out the playing field just a bit? This crap about getting the short numbers once a month is just pandering to the big players in the market. As a small 'player', any glitch in the market has your broker wanting to either up the margin or, worse yet, cancel the loan of the shares because he/she can't find any more shares of the 'small cap' shares you've shorted. We do live in different worlds. 'Might is right' - at least in the short term. In the long run, we're all dead.

Oh, Yeah. WWF loosing its appeal? Doesn't look like it to me. ----------- 2/7 War Ratings--this is SO good! by: dmiatanut 2/8/00 10:34 pm Msg: 9863 of 9874 Hey, we have been saying the recent shows have been great, and the proof continues to mount. wcw is no competition. And look who wcw lost to! And it's interesting about the last 1/4 hour of the first hour of Raw, their lowest. That dip could be some fans turning to see the last match on Nitro (we go to 5.1, they go to 2.8), then jumping back to Raw? But it sure picks up steam as our show comes to its ending, wow! Anyway, with these damn high ratings, it can't hurt any TV negotiations. pure_wrestling.com: Monday Night & Weekend Ratings..Nitro lost to who again? Reported by Fred Coook on 2/08/00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 2/7 Raw did a 6.5 rating with a 9.8 share. The first hour did a 6.1 (8.6 share). The second hour banged out a 6.8 rating (with an 11.0 share), down a little from the 7.0s of the last two weeks, but still beyond awesome. Nitro continued to backslide, doing just a 2.7 rating and a 3.9 share. The show did a first hour of 3.0 (4.8) and actually lost to Walker Texas Ranger on USA, which did a 3.3 (4.7). The only bright spot, if you can call it that, was that the second hour did a 2.4 (3.4) which was up a tenth of a point from last week. Below are the quarter hours: Raw - 6.0 6.4 6.2 5.9 6.1 6.6 6.8 7.4 8.1 Nitro 2.8 3.0 3.0 3.1 2.6 2.0 2.2 2.6 2.8 WCW Saturday Night did a 1.4 rating with a 2.8. Livewire did a 1.6 rating with a 4.6 share. Superstars did a 1.6 rating with a 4.3 share. Heat did a 3.5 rating with a 5.7 share. Credit: Dave Scherer
