since you people are discussing bias, i thought i might give you an unbiased opinion. as far as adding value goes, mike and maverick add nothing as far as i'm concerned. anybody can talk to a company's ir, look at a zacks report, s&p sheet or read any other second hand research and post it on the site. big deal. what value have you added. i would say none. even less value added is your opinion of the stock, of the company, of zsolt. have you ever met szolt? have you ever been to the plants? have you ever seen carbon fiber? if you have great. if you haven't and you speak so greatly of these things where did you come up with these opinions? did you have such opinions before you owned or knew about the stock? if you formed these opinions afterwards does that make you bias toward the company? opinions and bias are what makes markets. there is nothing wrong with having them and its up to you to make up your mind. if other people's opinions upset you or hurt your feelings, then the investment/trading world is probably not for you. and if you feel its unfair that people don't post their sources, tough. go out and find your own instead of expecting information to just appear on these boards. if you want to talk about carbon fiber, i think you have ruined your chances. the only person who knew anything about the industry used to post on this board and motley fool, but now no longer does. if you two smart guys want to add value go out and get the kind of information "jake"/"bill" provided. you may be surprised what you find.

The following was also posted on the Motley Fool: Sorry to break my silence so soon. But this needs to be said. Thank you to those of you who have e-mailed, conversed on line, and phoned in support of my posts and asked that I not stop posting, for whatever reasons. I do believe however, that we should raise the level of information qualification prior to posting. Although I have never posted information without multiple confimations, I am becoming concerned that there must be a higher standard, especially is the current market where the stock has taken a rather large tank. As to those who have expressed concern about Zoltek sponsered postings under aliases, I can only repeat multiple concerns, that Mike and Maverick are really called Dan, Mary and/or Chris. I had previous info relative to such goings on, but I didn't take them seriously, until now. I kiddingly responded to e-mails and posts as if that were true, and amazingly, those situations ceased, making me believe that the possibility of this continuing is real. Oh well, maybe it is true. Who knows since neither has a name under THEIR profiles, an accussation they so profoundly verbalized on this tread. Come on guys, be MEN, TELL us, or are the rumers true. Finally, a one further message to Marerick and Mike. I don't hate Zsolt. I have never called him a liar, nor do I believe he is. I have never known the man to tell an untruth. What my comments have related to is that he has never told the whole truth, playing on analysts ignorance (I have more than once questioned analysts competence) and investors need to believe (Or do Mike and Maverick fit in this catagory?). As a matter of fact I have stated that the vision 2000 and Zsolt's marketing strategy is supurb. Even to the point of emulating it myself under certain circumstances. Regards Jake (Bill)
