Party Time: You said Essentially, my battle with him was: Yes, he should expose scammy stocks. I was, am and always will be supportive of that. However, it was the manner in which he saddled his horse and lit lanterns for the shorties that, in my humble opinion, destroyed any and all moral high ground which could exist from what otherwise might be considered great research. I agree with the sentiment. I've never liked that manner of communication and i think it is ineffective. A lot of the shorters are roughies from the bad neighborhoods of the market - they were never offered a course in polite debating or martini sipping. I disagree that it destroys 100% of the moral high ground, though. I'll offer you 30%, can we agree on that? ;-) Peter

PT, let me see if I understand your position correctly ... I once had a battle with then-Truthseeker (by the way, no longer CraigGoon.com--he's got another new one!) when my girlfriend got caught long on something he opposed. I owned the stock once but only briefly "My girlfriend got caught long" ? Sounds quite innocent; well worded. But could it have been worded, "I put my girlfriend into a scam stock intended to fleece the public of their dollars but she would profit dramatically" ? Just a different slant ... There was no chance for innocent investors like my girlfriend to get out PT, come on now, do we all deserve to win all the time ? Who the hell believes that? Last week, millions of folks lost billions of dollars holding INTC overnight. Should we have had a moratoriam prior to trading the next day so every "innocent" investor could get out at their purchase price ? Your issue seems to be personal because you blew your girls' money. Let me ask you this ... if you were going to "innocently" put your girl in this "investment" and had read Tony's report PRIOR to the purchase, would you not be a hero in her eyes instead of the guy who lost her money for her ? You sound just like everyother poster who specializes in crap, scam companies. When it blows up in their face though, they are "innocent", "investors" ... in actuality, they are neither. They're driven by greed and when it blows up on them < there is after all, always the last out in any scam >, others are supposed to feel bad for them. Your girl got what she deserved, a victim of poor advice and decision making. Blame everyone else you'd like to but taking ownership is a wonderful thing. JB
