In the hyperlink to the Stockman's Page, from your post #189, part of the discussion says :- "And it is against the Law for people to organize to beat shorters in a concerted way. (I wonder who got that law passed...need I say.)" I can see the logic of people wishing to call in their certificates, but could people on this thread be subject to prosecution in light of the above statement ? Is there a distinction between 1. Suggesting a course of action to an audience which may have an effect and 2. Coordinating and rallying people as a group towards a specific course of action ? Just out of interest, have SI participants, or other Internet discussion group participants, ever been charged with shenanigans ? I'm sure that things like insider trading, misinformation and trash-talk campaigns can be even better orchestrated on a large electronic audience. Food for Thought ? Durro
