ALL: This is nuts and the last post I will make here, so I will close with this:

I recently offered the 2-3 most volatile people on SI a big bet. These people accused me of all sorts of things, none of which are true. The only way I thought I could prove them wrong was to offer them to enter into a $100,000 bet (or more, their choice). This still stands with anyone who chooses to assume I am guilty with my representation of H-Quotient of being a "pump and dumper", lying about any of the terms, lying about what I paid for the stock I bought on the open market, lying about whether I have received any stock from the company in my accounts as of yet, or claims that I made intentional mistatements about the company (or something in Real Estate that's call "puffing").

It's easy to accuse people of anything, but very hard to defend yourself. Try it sometime. The bet is the only way I could think of. Some people want to assume guilt and that somehow seems pretty wrong to me.

The bottom line -- I have yet to see anybody actually take me up on my bet, however. Unfortunately, for me.

Happy trading all. I'm sure that most would rather talk stocks. I am really off to dinner now.

PS-- If anyone feels like attacking me further, please have the courtesy to do it in private for all concerned, unless you want to take me up on my bet. I will even be happy to call you on the phone.
