Rickie, very simple assignment for you since you're a "true believer" (yeah right, like we don't know who you are) in ZIXI. Tell us, with all the announcements for zixmail, how many users are actually using it? To make it easy for you, perhaps you want to find out why NDB and matchmaker.com are not deploying zixmail? Need I direct you to those press releases too? You can find them near the Perot announcement, you know the one that Cook retracted one day later.

Rick,
OK. So we are doing generic things that we have done countless times before this.....

You don't seem to understand.....The revenues are the key......PERIOD. I don't want to do recordings on the net....I am not really that concerned about what I email. I do what I do. I don't have to worry if anyone is reading my email. Is there a reason that you are concerned with it.
Eveything I do is fairly obvious other than trading on a manipulatated stock. Get to 7 figures.....then talk to me.
Til then.....
BLOW ME.......shill
If we understand everything......
lee

Rick, at this point you've laid on the nonsense so thick for so long that your spasm of self-righteousness only makes you look more like a BS artist than before. I find it completely effin' unbelievable that you feign the expectation that anyone with the tiniest bit of street smarts would buy this stuff.

A few quotes:

I have never sold a share of stock that I invested in
- If this is so, why should anyone take you seriously? Your investing experience seems to be missing an important component. In effect you are saying "I've never made a profit in the stock market". Unrealized gains don't count Rickie, any stock could burst into flames tomorrow, it happens all the time; looked at AMZN lately? Smart investors take profits and protect capital, there are no two ways about that.

I averaged down
- Nearly always a losing strategy.

I don't like the popular SI personalities because I think what they do is just plain immoral.
- Wow. The only way you can avoid being tarred with your own brush here is to offer a convincing argument that you aren't playing a similar game. It's a little too late for that.

At best the case you make is that no one should pay any attention to the statements that appear on stock message boards, including yours. In general, a sound principle; in your case, perhaps even sounder. If this is a den of confidence operators, what reason do you offer for someone to think you would be any different than the rest?

(Don't forget. DB Alex Brown, Gary Craft)

Don't forget Joseph Charles, David Weinstein. Is Gary his official replacement now?

How much you want to bet Craft initiates coverage with a BUY or stronger with ZIXI's share price in excess of $70, AND ZIXI subsequently declines by no less than 50% in a maximum of three months time?

But since the technology, I'll also offer you a tech bet. I will bet you that of that list of "upcoming features/releases" I cribbed from the ZixMail website, all of which are scheduled to be completed within the year, no more than two (and probably no more than one) are actually released by year's end.

Time to put up or shut up, Rick. Preferably both.
