Very interesting and sad post. I had hoped that message boards would have become a tool to unite shareholders against management scams, in litigation, administrative actions and negotiation and to pass legislation in this regard. Instead message boards seem to have become dominated by issues of ego and I'm afraid that many of us fall into the response to a response to a response degeneration pattern. Maybe this will change. As you point out, there is so much potential. Sometimes, it's not even scams. It may be management that sells shares and then issues cheap options too often. The legal reality is that management works for shareholders. However, the opposite reflects investment reality.

Well stated, Bill. Very eloquent and NOT funny, because true. Following scams over the years leads to jadedness for all but the most idealistic. What the few remaining souls have in common is this idealism - that justice should prevail. The Government's support for further restricting short selling has caused many scam-fighters to mostly give up the fight. Obviously, we appear to be on the wrong side of the issue, no matter how right we are. Idealists hate being branded as evil-doers. Peter

OT OT OT Hi Bill, My compliments. That was a worldly and well-informed post. So unlike the silly non-contribution you attempted to make at the "Bush-Mastermind of 9/11?" thread. Perhaps your eyes are more open now than in that benighted past? Here's an excellent synopsis of the unclothed Emperor: 911research.wtc7.net Cast your erudite eye on this and tell me this doesn't have all the hallmarks of a scam. The clincher, and the reason to post this on this thread is the fact presented that well over 300 criminal investigations of Wall Street malfeasance were set back for months or years, if not forever, by the completely inexplicable fire and building collapse of World Trade Center Building 7, which housed all the sensitive investigations being carried out by the SEC in the "Northeast District" of the U.S. Curious, isn't it, how convenient 9/11 was to certain rogue elements of our society?
