Let me guess what they are saying. The longs are dishonest, unprincipled scam artists who have sold all their stock after making millions trading in and out. The longs are trying to lure unsuspecting, unsophisticated investors into this stock so the longs can dump their stock. [I know I just said the longs didn't have any stock, but inconsistencies like this do not matter to this bunch.] The longs are constantly engaged in a "pump & dump." [There may not have been a positive statement made about the stock or the company by a long in the last 500 posts, but according to this bunch, there is ALWAYS a P&D going on.] You and all the longs have violated the law and a SEC SWAT team is descending on your house as we speak ready to whisk you off to a Siberian gulag where you will eventually be reduced to eating your socks. This is your due punishment because you have made verbal or written contact with other human beings who also own this stock. Just because all you said to these stockholders was "Merry Christmas" will not mitigate your punishment. Expressions of any positive thought, emotion, fact, behavior, or tendency is evidence enough to prove that you are trading with inside information. [Inside information refers to non-public knowledge such as the location of the restrooms in the home office or how Paul Henry takes his coffee.] I hope you feel appropriately remonstrated and congratulations! I "suspicion" (as the ever delightful Mr. Vegas would say) that you are making great headway in fighting that stock thread addiction. So until the really smart people get here and deliver their revelation, tally ho! Regards, Suzanne
