Geez, is it good luck, or misfortune, to have these guys after 2 stocks I hold? Damn. It's both. Because I love a good fight. And I probably won't be able to type fast enough come 9:31 Monday morning.

Rrufff, handy work bonking these idiots on the head. Party and Star, keep jabbing. Since, judging by our truthseeker's tortured fisherman tale, he's not shy about trolling his Short 'n' Distort wigglers on other sites, here's one from me over at Raging Bull before I got the full news...Oh and Auric?, there's more, and more of us, to come. Best damn $59 bucks I've spent in weeks. Truth, better dust off your thesaurus.

2/3 of my holdings' 10's have "going concern" statements in them. If this was some kinda burning bush "revelation" I'd have been broke across the board years ago. For what it's worth, this is a concept company and a good one at that--somebody's retroactively cherrypicking and whispering news about XYBR and it's not Ralph Nader looking to save us poor ignorant shareholders.

Conclusion: someone picked us as a big short target; or someone's playing games to load up cheap. Given that bloomberg's (questionable) news snippets are involved in the last few weeks' organized and very noisy ECNC short debacle, who knows, a short attack is possible (Disclosure: I was in that for a profit. Got out before the mess. Still undecided on merits of the rumors.)

Or, BIG OR, someone knows something, and we all know that a "something" of any substance with XYBR probably doubles or triples the price with no looking back.

Either way, it's all about profiting from a company that's got a boatload of patents but the usual risk associated with new ideas. So if you are really "long", shorts are a minor nuisance. If you're REALLY long, oil up the wheels on your shopping cart cuz the blue light's flashing.

best and all IMO, natch
