You can't take my word for it on this, but, from what I know, penny stocks cannot be shorted. Except illegally by brokers or MM's. The general public cannot short this stock. IMO I don't know how it could be done anyway. It was done and tried, may be tried again. I am not worried about it. I think the mm's who do this every day, know a little about what they are doing, and are trying to make a buck, some times illegally. If they want to take the risk, that's up to them. If the price drops any from here I for one would be completely shocked! But if it is, guess who will be buying?<g> I could never buy as much as others have, no matter how hard I try! Main reason, to buy 100,000 shares at this price would cost $50,000, and I'm a little short right now. Good luck to what ever you choose to do with your stocks, CSMA or whatever you hold! KZAP
