Paul, could it be that the issue is a matter more of style than any intent to inaccurately hype the stock. Yes, sometimes MBA has strongly hinted that forthcoming releases would be positive for the stock and even once, in a somewhat emotional outburst, released information that might be considered "inside information" (two companys pursuing NRAG, the original rumor was one) but most of what he says is an attempt at being reasonable and is based on fact. He is extremely high on this stock and as some of you have said (including himself), maybe he is the wrong one to represent the company. (Nothing personal MBA, I bought the stock and will hold it whether you are the company rep or not and I appreciate your comments). I think those who have heard MBA before can separate the wheat from the chaf and it is the newer participants who are not used to his style. He never claimed to type is words or read his responses too carefully. He seems like a shoot from the hip kind of guy and I appreciate him.

I think that so far he has been relatively restrained while on SI and has generated some increased interest in this stock. Sometimes in an effort to quickly provide responses to questions he may have unintentionally communicated a statement that either confused the reader or left him or her with additional questions (the "listed" issue or the "tax" response).

Besides Paul, I thought you and MBA had a truce going. Your last two posts won't get you added to his Christmas list. The true test Jeff will be in how you handle the last few posts attacking your enthusiasm (that some call hype).
