Skip are you saying these big boys are reading this board to make up their minds as to whether invest in TPRO or not ?
God forbid may be they are not that big at all Skip.
I cant imagine investment managers at big houses reading SI board on regular basis.
This forum is for amateurs, small investors, guys with 1000, 2000 here and there.
It definitely is a wrong place for big guys to hang around.

Hey Skip, I dare say, very few "serious" investors spend all day (or even part of the day) hanging around places like SI. There may be a few heavy hitters here, and maybe even a few more who pretend to be, but this is what it is. A lot of useless posts? Sure. Why not? Most of us didn't have to pay to be here. gggg.

As for this thread turning off "serious" investors, I guess that would really surprise me. This company's potential is too long and deep to be deflected or deterred. As someone suggested a few (hundred?) posts back, relax and enjoy the ride.

Skip--I agree with your opinion of the thread lately. A lot of bs, very little to do with anything. That's too bad.
Anyway, I counted 36 buys at $6 3/4 today, some of decent size. My understanding is that someone is trying to dump a large block or blocks at $6 3/4, and the MM aren't taking them in there. That's why the ask is stalled. Your thoughts?

Regards,

Scooter

Skip,
I seriously hope you don't think that money managers are going to judge a stock by the amount of clicks they have to do for research! If this is the case than the country is in worse trouble than I care to believe! That is completely silly! I always thought that investors were in the business of making money! Let me know if this is not the case as I can see that you are a real smart guy!

While I agree that there is a lot of fluff in this thread, your comment is troublsome insofar as it implies that the underlying fundamentals are so fragile that a little bit of fluff on a public BB could, in your words, "screw it up." Since you are one of the earliest and most learned of the TOPRO advocates, I hope this is not what you meant.
