Dear Sam: I'm sure that everyone on this thread will disdain me for mentioning this, (because the use of facts on this thread are contrary to opinions expressed by the REEFER users), however, I believe that all the companies you mentioned, i.e., auto manufacturers, chip makers, etc. also have a product. Most of them introduced a product in its infantile stage and then used the profits to grow. Even if they were losing $$$ they still at least have something to touch and feel. Not just dead-end promises. Promises NOT KEPT, and ones that may NEVER be kept. I still see 7 comin' before 11. Just my way of makin' $$$ from those who are willing to give it away. The greedy fools who want it all, just like the poor who buy lottery tickets. Actually I think this stock should be renamed "REEFER MADNESS". I LOVE this stock. The smart investor will make a fortune, even if no product is introduced. GO REFR!! Disclaimer to N.D.: I do not hold a short position, and I take no offense at the rhetoric you impose towards me. I'd spend more time composing my literature, but it would get in the way of making money. After all, I do run a business, one that has profits YTD that exceed REFR's total for the past year. Not bragging, but have better things to do with my time. I invest for FUN and PROFIT, you on the other hand, it appears, have pretty much cleaned out your local pastor with your stock recommendations. I'll sleep well tonight, will you??

Sam, Let me start off by saying that I am long REFR and like many here, believe that this is a great story stock. Hopefully within the not too distant future we will have much more than just story. The last thing that I want to do is too start another round of the type of posts that seem to be the posts of choice lately for many people. However, I will say that as investors we all need to be aware of the possible downside of any investment that we make and I feel that there is not anything wrong with remembering the past. This includes REFR and again let me stress that I am long on this stock. I also believe that just because someone mentions something that does not fit the bullish case, they are not necessarily short the stock or trying to manipulate it (Not any specific reference to REFR, but the general tone here on SI). Just like it is smart to look both ways before we cross the street, it is also smart to look both ways when we invest. Yes the future is looking great but until some more time passes and things become clearer we don't know what the future holds. In closing let me state that I am long this stock, I am not Short this stock, I have gotten my sister into this stock, and all this is simply my opinion. Doug
