Let's get another thing straight...

Opus-x, (Sheldon) bashers, and other traders,

It is painfully apparent that many of you are unable to think about, let alone talk about GX in a long term context. If, for the sake of argument, GX does survive and ultimately thrive over the next several years, would you still argue that the likes of Robert Sheldon and the "suckers" who have been buying from $60 to $6 were stupid? Of course not. Only from a short-term, or traders context is your criticism meaningful. It is also important to note that unlike the people you are bashing, who support their takes on why GX is likely to survive and thrive, you are wasting the time of others on this thread who are interested in SUBSTANTIVE posts. Fez's recent post which explains clearly WHY he is now less bullish is a fine example of counterpoint. Perhaps you ought to consider starting a "GX for Traders" board...

"Sheldon has provided nothing to validate his credentials. He has done nothing to validate why suckers should have been buying GX all the way from $60 to $6."

You haven't been around long enough on this thread to KNOW what he has provided and your comment proves you haven't read the posts of the last couple of years.

And what have you provided in the way of research or even intelligent commentary about the company? Absolutely nothing. All you've done is criticize people, and sometimes about some issue that has been INTELLIGENTLY discussed. Real facts, real figures, original insight - you've never provided any. All you have supplied is banal generalities and personal attack. You are a negative opportunist who plays on the emotional rather than the rational. You are the Percy Wetmore of SI (remember "The Green Mile?). Get a brain. Get a conscience. Have a real nice day.

Hi O-Pus-X
Your bashing does not contribute to an intelligent dialogue
and useful information.
You would be perfectly at home on the Yahoo jungle.

Opus-X,

It actually wasn't your advice that I requested. If you do a little homework you'll find that both Robert and his firm are quite legitimate and quite successful. And I wouldn't have asked his opinion if I didn't value it.

But if you'd care to respond specifically to the question I raised, feel free.

And good luck to you.
