Stoli,
I think your characterization of Curly and Starbase 4.0 is a bit unfair. Though Curly does cheerlead a lot, IMHO this is a stock that has tried the patience of many investors since last fall, so there is some support group benefit to the uptalk. Plus Curly has contributed a lot of information to the thread. Starbase 4.0 has simply watched too many cheap sci-fi "prepare to die" movies and brought a version of them here.
Regarding your idea of moving shares to a cash account, if you read the fine print on most brokerage account applications, people actually authorize the lending of their shares from cash accounts the same as margin accounts. I'm not sure how much effect taking delivery of certificates will have, but in most cases the shift from margin to cash at your brokerage won't have that effect.
