AM,
Guilty as charged. I remember as if it were only yesterday...............(dream sequence)....

I was in my usual lurk mode, reading all of the messages on Fonar and it HIT me!! "GOLDEN LEAVES" of fall. The first thought that raced to mind was GOLDEN LEAVES, GOLDEN LEAV, GOLDEN, GOLD.........YELLOW.........YELLOW MOONS, PINK HEARTS, GREEN CLOVERS and BLUE DIAMONDS (they're magically delicious). That's right, Lucky Charms! The cereal we loved as kids. This was the sign I've been waiting for my whole life!! My DD then took over and I realized that Malcolm is really a Leperachaun(sp?) and Fonar is my lucky charm (a 10 bagger, minimum)!!!!!!!!!!!

Needless to say, that was all the DD I needed. I refinanced the house, maxed out the credit cards, and borrowed money from everyone I could think of and bought as much Fonar stock as I could.

I think you know how it ends. My house has been repossessed, I have no credit lines and everyone I borrowed money from is after me. But, I still have my computer and my fingers to type these messages.

Oh yeah, No! I won't sell my Fonar stock no matter how much I've lost!!!! and it is all because of that Leperachaun(sp?)!!!

Couldn't resist.;)
Back into lurk mode.
Gary S.

AM:

You are dishonest when you use quotes about something you attribute to me that I never said. I challenge you to find me ever using the words that it was "all his falt." Even spelled correctly, I never said that it was Malcolm's "fault" that I bought the stock. I said that he emailed me repeatedly and convinced me to both subscribe to Bill Matthews' newsletter and to buy Fonar. I do not consider it his fault that I bought the stock, but he was responsible for influencing me to buy the stock. I'm sure that many people here and elsewhere bought this stock due to Malcolm's influence. I felt convinced by his mail regarding both is sincerity and his wisdom. He has said that many of his customers have bought Fonar on his recommendation.

You claim to be a scientist, but your statements take unconscionable, liberties with truth and accuracy. You should never misquote someone, scientist or not, yet you do it repeatedly.

Nanny posted here recently that she bought Fonar because NYSE Bob recommended it to her. She says she considers Bob to be a wise man.

Perhaps this is similar to my thinking Malcolm was wise and buying on his recommendation.

Yesterday I mentioned on SI that I had bought three stocks the prior week and the woman to whom I mentioned it, went out and bought one of them. I did not recommend that she buy it, of course.

It is not unusual that people who respect each other follow them into stocks.

As for the boards, I believe that many decisions to buy or sell a stock are made on the basis of what people read in the threads, even though this may not be the best way to make a decision.

All that said, I thought it was nice of the person to post the information about his or her conversation with Fonar and see no problem with sharing information from IR. Indeed, it is welcome.

Mind your accuracy, AM. And, I'm not talking about your spelling. You're intentionally misrepresenting what I've said. That is dishonest.
