Ron, did you happen to catch my post on Anthony's thread? Surprisingly no one attacked me. I agree that their sanctamoniousness is revolting and insincere. We all know they could give a rats ass about scam busting unless it serves their purposes. I liken it to a bank robber who becomes a security consultant. It ain't that he cares about stopping bank robbery, he's just found a more socially acceptable way to take the bank's money. Anthony, Floydie, Pluvia, Bear Down, et al., behaved like jerks. But the IFR report, dessiminated by Manny as a representative of the company, Bloomberg as "impartial" reporters... that is what sucked in new investors in droves and gave the shorters the volume and height from which to operate. I'd never seen the game played before. They had. But can we really blame the shorters? So Anthony is a hypocrite and a grandstander who has had trouble with the law. Pluvia is some thin skinned antagonistic jerk who likes to gloat. Their gang of merry men came in and made a bundle of money, taunted all of us, kicked sand in our faces and left. We tied them to nefarious plots with IFR, the SEC, satan. The only bone I have to pick with them is the "saving the world" bs. I hate a hypocrite. I could respect them saying simply "we saw an opportunity to make money, we made it, and we're done." Fair enough. By their insults, taunts, arrogance, they got us personally vested in exposing their motivation. So we all know that they're not choir boys. We kinda like dredging up the facts that prove the point. But in the long term, they aren't the problem.
