<<VLNC unquestionably outperformed its peers (by an order of magnitude) during it's run to $40, and has made me quite comfortable financially.>> In order for it to have made you comfortable financially, you would have to have sold at $40. Funny, I can't find the post where you said you did this. Here is what you actually said when the stock was at $40. Doesn't sound like a guy who is selling to me. Message 13031687

It was down nearly 16% on a day when the Nasdaq was up a little over 4%! Nice call (insofar as it provided overwhelming evidence about the investment acuity (or more precisely, the lack thereof, of the source of the call, one yoest (must rhyme with "toast" as in burned).
