To all, I would like to add my two cents to this thread concerning statements made regarding share price... what it is and what it should be. I think the majority of us, assumption being small investor, that it is to our discredit that we perhaps do not perform DD to any degree, but rather hang out looking for the next hot tip. It is ashame that we then rely on the unknown for any info we can get about the blind "investment" just made. In consideration of the fact I would like to make the comment that any of the posters here who have done the dirty work, and should be graciously commended for their efforts, should also exhibit some responsibility to their fellow surfers. Anyone who decides to ride the coattails of Mr.X or Mr.Y or Ms.Z should at least be doing their due diligence of these folks. How can that be done? Query them to the Nth degree until you feel comfortable that they are someone you would give your money to. It is my opinion then that the small investor who wants to play the speculative market without having all the knowledge available to him, except from these threads, should have no qualms with the research posters if the stock does not perform as they would suggest. It is extremely irritating to me when someone with no face decides to bash someone with no face because he lost money. It is amazing how everyone pats each other on the back when things go up, but when they go down it really gets ugly. So instead of being an ugly investor, show some responsibility yourself and do your DD on the guy/gal whose coattails you're gonna ride. Thanks for your time, Russell
