what's happening here? has anyone seen those 38$ trades like me some 30 minutes ago or am I going nuts?

Now can't see any trades below 43, but saw the price on quote.yahoo AND here at the bottom.

Think the time has come for me becoming paranoid bigtime...

regards
sunny

Please place me on "ignore" then.

Look, I don't know why you feel you need to start personal insults. I won't reciprocate.

We had good conversations before, and I repeat my beef is with the lack of sponsorship for this company, my investment, and managements failure to follow through in a big way from all of the good things last year that happened.

I wish I did not own this stock. Obviously. It must be nice to be in the green. I have never once enjoyed that luxury here. If I were to sell now however, I would take at least a $65,000 loss. Its no joke. My wife and I would basically lose 10 years of hard work. We are crushed right now. I have made a very bad and dumb mistake, even after several years of conservative investment experience and good results prior to this.

How would you feel in this case facing financial catastrophe? Probably not very well either.

If I want to post my opinions instead of being utterly frustrated in silence, I will do so, having more than paid the price. I do not like how Russ Horowitz has been the invisible man since the annual meeting with nary a public word, as this is contributing to the utter lack of marketplace respect for the company. I do not like how the company is standing still on the acquisition front, sitting idly by watching their ratings and all else drop like a rock. Being disrupted by the upcoming move is understandable, but not to the extent that the momentum of innovation and creativity has seemingly stopped or slowed way down. There has been no news of substance this year to really refute that.

I must not be the only one disenchanted, seeing as how very few of the "Net trillionaires" even post here any more. In fact, going back to the first few hundred posts, virtually none of those people are around any more. They must be among the steep dropoff in SI posters. As well, the shocking drop in trading volume denotes a much lower level of interest and enthusiasm, as does the fact that the stock has barely recovered 7 points from its low this year, while still being down 70 points from the high, all the while the nasdaq has recovered 850 points from a 2,000 point hit. That is very telling, and should be totally unacceptable.

Please, no more personal insults. If you want to tout the company and the stock, great. If you don't like the things I am pointing out, then fine. It should not bother you in any event. Because if you are truly long term, then there really is no reason to even read this board or react more than once a month or so.

Regards.
