To: Miner who wrote (9999 ) 7/2/2002 6:00:42 AM From: axial Respond to of 14101 John, thanks for the good words."You put in a lot of time and effort to refute some of the BS over there." Joe, Mark, Wolf, di7026 and others were there long before me. Sometimes, I wonder if it makes any difference. There are people on that thread with a substantial portion of their net worth in DMX. They sit, and say nothing as these charlatans wreck their investment with obvious lies, distortions, and pollute their psychology with negative, illogical BS. What is it? The "Canadian" disease? "Oh, we mustn't object! Don't make a fuss!" How can people let that kind of illogical, distorted, dishonest garbage pass unchallenged? Hiding behind a cloak of anonymity, the worst of the FUDsters betray a sick maliciousness that amounts to a vendetta against anyone who opposes their bilious crapola, but especially, against the Company, itself. I am not bothered by the personal attacks, but it's sad to see people totally consumed with vindictive hatred, solely as the consequence of an investment. Some have faced the threat of legal action, as a consequence of which, one PM'd me with a threat that "...You better be who you say you are" . He wanted to know what city I lived in ( ! ). I told The Enforcer who I was, and where I lived. Some of these people must be out on Day Passes. I suspect it's nothing more than a game, to others. It's been suggested there's a Short Consortium at work; I suppose it could be true. Most appear to be individuals, trying to make up their losses on the Short side. Oh, well. Like you say: "...Stockhouse is the seedy Downtown East-side bar, with yelling over a flat beer." Been there , too! Best wishes, Jim
