<<Finally, one joke (from a short-seller, no less) making the rounds yesterday: Did you hear that a short-seller jumped out of a window in San Francisco this morning?

He went up.>>

Agrred Roger. One has to wonder why some people deem it necessary to defend some companies with such ardent fervor. Would that they had the same fervor in defending values which are really worth preserving! After all, the companies are not theirs or they have no vested interest in these companies. Right?

Roger & others

I'm sorry if that mild expletive offended anyone. However, Bill Wexler has, for several months, used similar & worse language while attempting to spread lies & innuendo regarding Zonagen first printed by Asensio.

While I have nothing against ANY legitimate investment style - long, short, whatever - this has been a clear attempt to utilize the internet & other PR channels (available to Asensio only) to influence the stock price.

I'm not going to get into on this thread as I don't have enough time. I apologize for the (mild) language - but I maintain that Bill Wexler, through his dishonest posts over the last 3-4 months, has proven that he is exactly what I called him.

Good luck to all of you.
