>> PRST will undoubtedly continue to PROMISE great alliances and future relationships and little-valued patents<< "PROMISE"??? You must be kidding. You think they don't have those alliances, those relationships, they're just making it up? Presstek's patents are "little-valued"? And the one making this determination is Steve Andrew? It's intriguing to imagine what Presstek's share price will be when all those patents become valued! Well, at least you have the sense not to be "carrying any kind of substantial [short] position forward." What do you imagine Presstek's share price will be one year from today? How about two years? I mean given their lack of great alliances, relationships, valuable patents and all? Just wondering.

Boy, Steve, Chapman, Howard, Walker, Lutts and all the rest on your enemy list (you left off Oxley) must have really done something terrible to make you hate them so much! I don't know the history on any of the people you constantly cast stones at but if I had known that investing in any of these companies would bring on the wrath that it has, I'd have considered staying away. As I've stated clearly before, I don't know the people on your enemy list, so stop grouping me in with them. Hate me if you want but for reasons other than the company I keep because you don't know the company I keep, obviously! The Red Chip Review has a very nice report and a valid reason for speculating on SNRS! Anything wrong with that! Is the Red Chip Review your enemy too! Does Lutts have a recommendation on SNRS? I don't think so....and I do invest in stocks other than Lutts' recommendations! Carrington was recommended by Carlton Lutts a couple of years ago. I started to use some of their products, with great results BTW. You should try them. When Lutts recommended selling CARN, I stayed. Someone drove the stock up too high, things didn't go well in clinical trials, the stock dropped like a rock but since I still believe there's a story to unfold there, I'm hanging tough. Did your enemy list cause all the ups and downs of CARN too? Boy, these guys must have some clout!!! As for Presstek, well, unless this guy Chapman was in from the beginning, I heard about it before he did. If Lutts puts a sell on Presstek tomorrow, I'll hang tough. I believe what I believe about the products and the industry. I've got the time to wait for the story to unfold!!! Now, as for your ego needing to be massaged by posting "I know everything about stocks so don't question me" attitude, well I've seen the likes of you come and go because they got too cocky. You'll make one wrong move that will wipe out everything you've made all because you knew too much. I'll just sit back and watch you disappear. As for Chapman, et al, if there's any link between them and me, it must be because I know someone who knows them. I'm not interested in their list of acquaintances enough to find out. I do subscribe to Lutts' email edition and plan on continuing to do so! I find your posts amusing and will continue to ROFLMBO every time I read them. Keep up the good work. BTW, have you ever considered airing your differences with these guys? Maybe a mediator could help you get it off your chest so you can get on with your life. They say hate ages one. I hope you're not allowing that to happen to you. CARN may have a product for that too! Have a nice day! Nanny PS I just had a thought....wonder if your enemy list also likes TPRO and FONR? Egads, I could have other stocks on your enemy list. Oh, no!!! Maybe I need to find out what they like BEFORE I invest.....sort of like a prospectus! Whaddya ya' think?

Steve: I too have witnessed the demise of Carrington and while I am not too knowledgable about snrs, it does not seem like something that I would be hot for. Have you ever been to hudson to visit the prst plant? I have taken the time to see what they do and visited shops that use the presses. This is no special aloe potion this is real. I urge you you to take the time and visit. At these prices you might even change your position. These relationships that they have developed with Fuji and the likes did not come about because of their sparkling personalities. They have technologies, products, and patents that are the envy of the industry. Have the shysters fooled Fuji, Scitex, Imation, Alcoa etc... If they are capable of this They should become White House Counsel While the stock had no business getting to the dizzying heights of before, that does not mean that there is nothing here. I think prst is very careful of not hyping the story. That is why I think they have the cautionary statements in the latest release. IMO this is not a warning but prst using caution in what they say because they know big brother is always watching. You must distinguish the Bears from those that knowingly spread false information. Paul was (is) a bear and nobody sued him as far as I know. He gave fundamental analisys of why he thought prst was overvalued. His input was factually based and thought provoking. The ones that were silenced were purposely misinforming people. (According to the suit) Reading statements from the suit I am sure you would agree that they were not merely bears but malicious shorts. Anyway, both sides have cried wolf one too many times. It is now up to the numbers to speak for themselves. Good luck. Joe
