Bradpalm :(OFF TOPIC) One of the nice things about SI is that there is little of the dog-eat dog, "Squirm and die, you lousy short", or "godly amused superiority" attitude here. Most of us are trying to learn, and make a living, feed the kids and all, long a lot and short a few, and share what we know. Have you ever benefeitted from information someone else found and posted on SI? If so, do you feel no obligation to return the favor? It seems to me that if you benefeit and do not contribute, you are a parasite.If not, why are you here, reading this board? Honest question, not an attack. Jim

Bradpalm1, BARRY, & any other lurking longs; May ask what is so amusing? The only thing amusing I've read was the last 10Q, cleverly annotated by CS, and BARRY's calls for a short squeeze. To that I shall now add Bradpalm1's call for a short squeeze. With the float just having increased by some 3M shares why would anyone expect a short squeeze? To that I add BARRY's sudden realization he "entered a den of SHORTS" Now he is asking "Is anyone long here?" Did he not read any of the previous posts before posting for himself? My first question upon his arrival was why is he long, and where are all the other longs. I have recceived no answer why he is long. Only one other long has crawled out of the wood work. Both longs have scarey unsubstantiated pronouncements of upcoming short squeezes. This is the same thing I have seen happen time and again at the ZITL thread. Needless to say ZITL is terminal. Now BARRY has said if the price is not above $25 in the next three trading days he is gone. Boy BARRY, that is quite a statement. What has brought you to that conclusion? I will go out on a limb(not really:-) and say BARRY's posts reflect the type of DD he has actually done. This may sound harsh, but I mean no offense. I am not trying to start a flame war, nor will I engage in one. I just want the longs to bring facts to the table. If their only DD was hearing the "story" from their broker, then admit it (at least to yourself) and move on. FWIW, I think sammy levy has hit the nail on the head with his post #368. -Allan

Bradpalm & Barry I have a feeling the 2 of you are taking it ,as something personal,the fact that most of us are short cdrd.This is the way we perceive the price of this stock and the concept .nothing personal. The 2 of u are thinking the opposite.and thats ok. However,u can read most of the short posts,explaining why they took the position they took. You guys,are "making threats"about the stock going higher and an upcoming short squeeze. Why dont u do as we do,and explain your view and reasoning.If they make sense,we will all become LONG.you and us will benefit from it. how about it ? Sammy
