Craig C., <<Also, maybe you speak with these guys a lot and understand their way of speaking so you can notice little subtleties that I can't.>> Actually, I have never spoken to Ken Hendrickson, but his answer still struck me as odd enough to bear watching. <<If your info is worthwhile and profitable knowledge for the shorts it should certainly be profitable for you as well. In other words if you come across something and you tell the shorts to cover because the stock's going to pop aren't you going to profit from going long ahead of time?>> If that was my strategy, I suppose so, but that smacks of market manipulation, and I haven't done that in the past, and I don't intend to do it in the future. I would rather research the prospects of ANCR and Fibre Channel, and share that information with others of like mind. I would also like ANCOR to prove the nay-sayers wrong, since it is ANCOR that we are investing in. The difference between the discussions that we longs have and those that the nay-sayers participate in is immense. Granted, we have been wrong too, but the discussions have generally centered around the technology, the Fibre Channel market, the finances, etc., not around name calling, taunting, and the like. (Of course, there are exceptions to that rule on both sides.) Take the combined posts of me, Kerry, George Dawson, Herb Herman, Alan Aronoff, and a lot of others and compare them to the posts of Ed Schultz, Rob T., yourself and the others who have been on the nay-sayer side. (At times, at least. <g>) There is a HUGE difference in both the number and quality of the posts. (No slight intended to you, but you have been on the nay-sayer side more than the long side.) Even if you would take a random number of posts from ANY of those people and compare them, the difference would be striking. Craig
