I agree totally. It's better than a train wreck, though, since you can make money off it. (100 years ago, railroad companies retiring engines would stage train wrecks for which they charged admission.) And so far, only BonniesGuy responded to my request for longs to explain their reasoning. Others, please? I really want to learn how you think.

BG would make a good kamikazee fighter ... willing to go down in flames. After ZITL is delisted we'll all hear "wait shorties, I bet none of you have the guts to hold your short ZIT OTC:BB position until the mother of all software date snafus erupts in year 9999!" FWIW -- Short ZITL stock, call options, and the kitchen sink.

Hi, shorters, You should understand that it is very painful to take the lose so that lose become the biger and biger. However, a lot of the longs still hope zitl could go back to $20 since las time it dropped to about 10 then went back to $20. I expect large sell after ZITL drop under $10. Good trading!

Any possibility that Longs know something Shorts don't? Probably not right because if you subscribe to the Short Sermon it would be insider trading if it hadn't yet been posted three days straight in the Wall Street Journal right? My only regret with regard to this dip is that dilution from the Caymen conversion will be higher than originally thought. But hey. They'll be PLENTY of Revenue to go around. Dougy, the lower this baby goes, the more attractive it gets. Might even consider increasing the position in my SEP account at these prices. Don't disregard the advice to Hoalin Ni, prepay you electric and phone bills now if you're planning on remaining Short into the near term. Hey, might not be a bad idea to go ahead and get your Christmas shopping done before December while your credit is still good. Bonnies (but then you can't fault the Shorts too much, the moth doesn't realize how close it is to the flame either) Guy
