regine, I have read many of the posts that were made here over the past year. If I had to estimate I have probably read about 15,000 or so and skimmed the subject lines of the rest(the beauty of the Internet through a cable modem and a T1 connection). I have read many of the posts that were made by the 'hypesters' and the 'bashers' and the bottom line is I did not invest because of either sides opinions. All opinions are just that. I may be a bit of egoist(and no, that is not suppose to be egotist) but I do not believe that anyone is smarter than I am(Martin's corrections, not withstanding:-), therefore I do not place much credence in other's opinion. I understand that since I have started posting here in Oct., there have been about 10 people who have posted to this thread for the 'sole' purpose of dispelling the hype that they perceive exists here. I have seen no less than 50 others who have come here prior to Oct. claiming the same motive, except if you follow them around, you will find that all, as in every single, have had an ulterior motive. Whether that was a personal grudge(Do you really think that .81 cents was pulled out of the air?), a short position, a competitor or a company that was formerly in alliance, there exists a true purpose behind their words. SI has an extensive archive and every tale is there to be told.
