That was a very interesting post. It was much more intelligent and also more insidious than someone like HLl who is somewhat redundent and very obvious.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with shorting. It is part of the market mechanism that makes this whole thing work. The act of shorting alone does not make someone "evil" or "bad". However, lying , half-truths, and distortions do.
Where did you see Austin post this weekend? You "wonder" about what he is doing? You "surmise" he is reading the thread? You then use that base of "facts" to "wonder" if he is posting using an alias?
What if Austin was reading the thread? That simple act that you make sound so sinister, sounds very human and innocent to me. IF he was reading the thread(BTW, Hi Austin,) I would surmise he was reading about a company that he has a financial interest in, nothing more and nothing less.
C'mon........ that type of arguement is far below you. You are much more evolved than that. Do you want a "do-over" also? The truth is,I don't even think you are a shorter. I think that you may short a 1,000 shares of this or that occasionally, but basically you are small time.

However, I think eveyone in life deserves a chance. Tomorrow, when the market opens, you will get the chance of a lifetime. Take a BIG plunge, bigger than you are used to, say 5,000 shares. Short the heck out of it. I hope you do.

Mikey: You don't even know me. You have nothing constructive to add. You are one of 3 things: 1) An idiot wasting all of our time who gets of going negative on the net; 2) a short front or 3) a philanthropist trying to aid us (that's sarcasm or are you purposely being so obtuse.)

I've asked more hard questions for many more years about this stock and now you all are bringing up old news in an obviously inflammatory fashion.. Give it up, or at least get some style, dude.

BTW - my losing everything is not bloody likely. I'm probably half your age and could buy and sell you. If saying that makes me an asshole, so be it!!!

Why are you here ?? Answer that. I'm through with you and your ilk
