<<Michael, who do you think Moosewinkle is, Rod or Rocky? I have formulated a diagnosis for Rocky; Obsessive Compulsive Neurosis. Obsession=IOM, Compulsion= posting on the SI and Yahoo thread, as often as possible and in response to every statement made which is positive for IOM. (On the Yahoo thread they refer to him as "the flying squirrel".) The no. of posts are increasing daily. Treatment for this disorder= Prozac, 40 mg a day. He needs treatment because his life is totally taken up with IOM. As a matter of fact Herb Greenberg also suffers from the same affliction. SR <<<<< Please stop, I spilled soda on my keyboard because of this post ROFL! If I may be so bold good Dr., I think a more appropriate diagnosis for our squirrely friend is plain old Scaldonitis, got scalded by the stock and is now hell-bent-for-leather. Make that vinyl, leather is too expensive :-O! Remember, laughter is the best medicine. And if that's true, then Rocky must be one healthy squirrel, he's laughed at rather frequently, deservedly so!

Sheila....."the flying squirrel".....I love it! I figured he was Moosewinkle for sure.....hard to rule Rod out as a suspect though. Your diagnosis is right on, as far as it goes.....no mention of sociopathic leanings. IMO, Rock's the guy who would show up at your party without an invite, insult all your friends, tell you how tacky your house looked (unless it was a Roxy theme party, of course), complain about the food as he stuffed his face, point out to all that your antiques were fakes, grope your loved one, be the last to leave, ripping off a loud fart as he departed and asking, "when's the next get-together." I'm not qualified to question your Rx, but don't overlook the value of one of those radio-active lower GI deals.....so we could understand him better, of course. :-)

Sheila, Have you ever seen the Rocky Horror Show? I wonder if the main character in the movie resembles our Rock? \\\ /// @ @ \ __ /

I have been lurking and reading messages for some time now. I have decided that Rocky is an excellent contrary indicator. If he ever turns bullish on Iomega I will sell immediately. I would be grateful to Rocky if he would post his positions so that I may use them as a contrary indicator. I sincerely believe with this approach he can make me a lot of money. Rocky, keep posting your views and especially, your solid portfolio moves. Thanks in advance. Frank
