Amen, Hank...coulda woulda shoulda, plenty of room in Nasdaq for serious changes for our benefit and not the MM's.
This thing is amazing...the third day in a row without any change or seemingly anyone blinking.

Hank, as I understand it, if your shares are held in a margin account, then your broker has the right to lend them out, but if they are held in a cash account, they cannot be lent. And it dosn't matter if you are actually on margin. If you have enough margin power, you can call your broker and instruct them to place your shares in a cash account, where I don't think they can be lent out.

hank, i'm a long, long way from an authority on this matter... but in addition to keeping your shares in a cash account (as opposed to margin account where shares are lendable) i believe the company itself can request that their shares not be lent or shorted. seems i read that in greenberg's sf chronicle column.
btw, as a newcomer to SI, i must compliment people on this thread (i saw RADAF mentioned on CREAF thread) for their massive due diligence. i am definitely a beneficiary of some of your hard work. thinking hard about buying RADAF shares on tuesday.
good luck!
