Nope....NEWP too risky for me at this time....I like the company in a bull market, but not this one.....very low float means it will more then likely overreast to both sides...if we are going up, she will see some nice pops, if we are down, she will go down hard....as evidenced in the last downturn.......nope, I have some risky plays, but let me tell you, my risky plays will NOT be stocks that are $30, $40, $50, that could be $5 in this market in the blink of an eye...nope, all my speculative plays have for the most part already crumbled with not much more crumbling possible ( I hope )....INSP and ICGE and GEMS in the $3's are my risky plays at the moment....everything else I have is pretty much quality....sunw, qcom, jdsu and etc....my quality is still getting whacked<ggg>, but sheesh, I'll let that quality sit for awhile and see what happens.......Don't know what newp will do...IF market turns, could do very well...if not, maybe I'll buy it at $5......

Hi Bonnie, I've seen, in the past few days since you've returned to SI, some interesting things happening here, things which make me angry. While I often disagree with your style, you are certainly not alone in your criticism of Voltaire. In the month since you've been gone, there has been a continuing and vigorous discussion here and elsewhere on SI regarding the ethics of his regular "buy" calls in the face of the Nasdaq crash. And I notice that as soon as you return, Voltaire shows up here criticizing you in patronizing terms about your weight , of all things. JPGill culls through messages you posted nine months ago in which you, fresh from what seems to be a great time at a party, commit the heinous act of telling people you enjoyed their company. Annette shows up and posts something rather incoherent but clearly meaning to be derisive. And Vendit, who "left" SI over a month ago clucking about the riff-raff here, has allegedly PMed you with his own trademarked happy face, to let you know he's watching. It is eminently clear to me that it is easier and more enjoyable to these people to taunt an easy mark than to discuss the substance of your issues with Voltaire. Isn't that interesting. Isn't that a damn shame.
