Bill, Do you mean that you haven't been able to find shares of SIEB to short? It's NASD, rather than OTC, so it should be shortable. Jerry, To short a stock, you need to sign a margin agreement with your broker. If your broker is local, that only takes about 5 minutes. Once you're set up with a margin agreement, you just contact them and say "short so many shares of this stock at this price."

HMSC continues to underperform..... HMSC came thisclose to it's 52 week low today and could very well be leading the Doom Portfolio tm percentage wise. But bless me father , for I have sinned. I'm now long HMSC as I believe it will runup in the next 30-40 days as the long awaited initial revenues from Breast Alert will be revealed in the next 10Q and the stock sits at what should be verrry close to the bottom till then. We will know what the revenues are from this product since it's the only one they have !! Lest any naysayers think this stock is incapable of another last gasp....don't forget , this is the stock that went from 5 something to 13 plus just due to TV appearances by Jill Eikenberry !! Sales will of course disappoint and those who jump on the momentum train late will exhort that it will take a few quarters blah , blah , blah.... Rob
