Keith,

"I just read your comment on had we just shorted everytime tom said to buy, and realized just how correct you are and it makes me wonder why he continues to make these calls."

C'mon, Keith, what is the difference between Volt boldly giving his opinions and you talking about ICGE at under $2? How many sub-$2 stocks will remain listed in 2 years?

I lost plenty in the last year, and blame no one but myself. That's what I get for failing to appreciate true risk. Hopefully, I've learned something; if I haven't, it will happen again. For the life of me, I don't understand the hostility (not suggesting you have been hostile, by the way) of anyone toward Voltaire for continuing to offer his opinions -- no matter how bold -- on the market and individual companies on his own thread. Isn't that why he has his own thread? Some are here to read Voltaire's opinions, some are here to rip him, and some are here because some other pretty cool people hang out here.

JMHO,

PS: I had some ICGE from the IPO through last April, read plenty about it, and made some pretty good dough. IF incubators survive, and IF B2B companies survive independent of the Big Boys (who could buy them each for a song), ICGE may do ok. A major problem, however, is that the IPO market appears to be dead for quite some time, which significantly hinders ICGE's ability to get cash out of their investments.

Good luck.
