Naw my cause is solid ... very solid and the research is beginning. I type and spell just as good as others ... Cheap shots are wasted on me. Threats are wasted on me. Intimidation is wasted on me. I am focused that the entire short selling rules needs to be changed to protect american investors. If that cuts off someone's thievery, well ... I really hate it for them. Short-sellers and their tactics are as old as Wall Street. And though much has changed there, this has not: No one on the Street is more widely despised. Short-sellers were profiteers in the 1929 crash; aggressive ``stock-busters,'' led by the flamboyant Feshbach brothers, in the 1980s; and, nowadays, secrecy-worshipping, often embattled traders who bet on what is almost un-American--that share prices will collapse. Worse they have banned together to affectively manipulate the markets and they do not care which market it is either. The target is announced and the rest is self-prophesy history. When short sellers post they merely exacerbate your reputation as piranhas and the assassins of Corporate America maintainly are so transparent because they don't just bet on share-price declines, they make them happen. "Small companies can be seriously affected by short-sellers. Some of these shorts target particular issuers and don't know a d**n thing about the companies they're shorting," says Edward Mishkin, a prominent New York securities lawyer and a vocal critic of short-sellers. That mean organized and collusive manipulation. P2BAAAT & DSAS
