Bill, as a newcomer to this stock, I'm not interested in getting involved in who's right and who's wrong with regard to whether REFR is a good buy or short here. However, some things stand out that are hard to ignore. With REFR selling at $28 in July, and to take a 40% loss in profits if one was holding long, makes no sense to me regardless of the amount of profits still in hand. REFR would have to go up 75% from here to break even on the profits that were in hand back then. It does make more sense, to me, that REFR is a better short candidate than a long candidate. I would like to see it recover a little before shorting though. It takes courage to go against the crowd and I applaud your efforts. Shorts can't afford to invest based on emotion and it has been my experience that shorts are better informed with the true fundamentals of a company. You threw a challenge out the other day. Why did REFR go up! Nobody responded, you said you knew. Would you kindly let me know, if not publicly, at least PM me. I'd appreciate it. Again, thanks for your efforts. dabum
