KG - I must respond. I do not have any desire to get into a pissing match either, but at least be man enough to complain to me, and not about me. This has nothing to do with "blame" as you imply. I owned IARC a few weeks back for all of about 1/2 hour, when I set up a cc situation days before expiry, before my broker informed me that the stock was non-marginable. I then got out and stayed out of it, as I felt my buying power was best used elsewhere for that time-frame. Since then, I have been watching the stock for a possible entry point, and seen you mention the co.'s "strong prospects" (my words) in more than a few posts, not sure if only on this or other threads. That bothers me. Why? It bothers me because I am suspicious of multiple mentions of a stock which IMHO had weak attributes, by anyone. It bothers me because as far as I am concerned you were favorably mentioning a falling stock which IMHO I felt didn't even have decent short term (1 month+) prospects, as is your right, but also, at least in the posts I remember, without mention of a few critical details, which I have mentioned prior. I do recall that you mentioned the speculative nature in other posts, the ratio I am unsure of. SO - in conclusion, if you or anyone else is not clear: 1) my decisions are my own, 2) I am not "blaming" you for anything other than I have said above and in my previous posts, and certainly not for my decision to buy into the stock, for however short a time I owned it, 3) last week has nothing to do with anything. Why you feel the need to personally attack me is beyond me, throwing in all sorts of accusations and innuendos while doing so. IMHO, you make yourself small by doing so. I wish you well with this and your other investments. Jeff Smith
