I actually do contribute to several eye research organizations in the Boston area, inter alia, glaucoma and macular degeneration. I will add your group. I don't object to posters who have some substantive negatives or some real predictions based on fact or reasoned opinion. I also respect some of the gurus and their trading ability. However, I do object to someone like BrownFingers coming in and calling something a POS based on 1)out dated material or 2)FUD, including statements that a stock is down and therefore will keep going down 3)just plain wrong assumptions about running out of cash, etc. In my experience with him, he covers many stocks, reads very little, is being told by associates that something is the case and really has no ability to analyze or communicate other than to trade on hype and FUD. You know he may be the best guy or best trader in the world. He doesn't do it for me. He comes here on a day when stocks are tanking and boasts ex post facto how he was right on a stock going down. That's why I've tracked his public record and have put it in his face. What he does in private on his private site is his business. If he's going to come over and try to rub salt in wounds or to scare up stock with FUD, he's gonna get it back in spades. Remember nobody is smarter than the market in the long run. Anyone who claims to be always right is a pure unadulterated liar. Again, at this point the markets are in turmoil but they are close to a bottom. I'll take your statement. I believe MCOM will be at 13 before 7. Loser makes $100 contribution to your charity. You're in a no lose situation. Good luck.
