Liz, if they've been short for more than a couple months and less than 3 years, I think they've redeemed themselves. Don't you?

Yes I do think that! I didn't mean to imply they weren't winning this year. But whats with the endless *I told you so's*! and this options thing too... lets debate it, sure it is an issue, one among many but its soooo tiring.

This poster shows up on the sebl thread a week ago and posts a piece of news. This is what stock threads are for, to post news, imo. This short then retrieves some erroneous post that this same guy made in 2000 that he was "buying the dip" on rnwk at 300 or so. Who cares?! How many good fundamental posters have been chased off by these insecure individuals? You can't even discuss fundamentals of any company on the stock boards now.

Wrt sebl, I bought the dip in the 8s- the stock rallied to 9.75 or so, I didn't sell because I'm LTBH but it was a 15% move and no real comments from the longs on that thread. Otoh if sebl fell to 6.9, the same % gain for a short (which is unlikely imo)- they all come out of the woodwork with this ridiculous backslapping as if they've caught "the big one".

As the longs discovered the past 2 years, it matters not what you did in the past. I'm going to watch these shorts performance going forward, *now*.
