OTOTOT - Will the real Tunica Albuginea please stand up If you're not interested in the real identity of "Tunica Albuginea" then, PLEASE, read no further. I've never posted on this thread, but have been checking it fairly often. I'm a Zonagen investor from its start-up days - please, I'm not here to argue Muse vs. Vasomax - I believe that BOTH products will produce substantial profits for their respective companies in the long run. In reading this thread from time to time I couldn't help noticing the numerous posts from a self proclaimed MD - Tunica Albuginea. He showed up on the Zona thread from time to time & did his best to bash the company - always behind the veil of being an MD. He seems to have disappeared from here after guaranteeing the success of this stock at several different price levels. I believe, the whole matter of the anonymity of most posters on SI is (IMHO) one of the few weaknesses of this forum. That being my feeling, I like to do a little sleuthing when I have some time to spare. Today I checked the TUNA's profile & read some of his recent posts on the 3DFX thread. Here's what I found: #1.... To: +Anthony Maza (2185 ) From: +Tunica Albuginea Friday, Apr 17 1998 2:06AM ET Reply # of 2269 You think I have some sort of stake in either of these companies? WTF. Guess again, im about 16 years old, and I've been on this thread and in this stock far longer then you have ever been. Why don't you go way back to about post number 100, and you'll see my name again. I didn't see any harm in making any suggestions, but I see you obviously do. What a punk. ===================================================================== #2 To: +Anthony Maza (2191 ) From: +Tunica Albuginea Friday, Apr 17 1998 2:41AM ET Reply # of 2269 Not a problem. This is what I'll be going into. I'll be doing my undergraduate at either University of Chicago or University of Pennsylvania soon. My dad got me into this, and I've been trading for about 4 years. Recently I purchased a computer from Falcon, and I am really impressed . My dad just ordered a computer from Dell, and after seeing that piece of crap, I just thought I'd warn people, there's a world of difference between the two. Anyways, I'll probably be up at about 9:20 tomorrow (as opposed to 2:00 PM) I don;t really have the time to be a "real trader" so I buy a stock and stay with it. I've been in since late July, and I have'nt moved my position. ===================================================================== I don't read here all the time - was there a post from TUNA admitting this?? The most recent posts from him on this thread were at the end of March. If I missed one somewhere I apologize. In any event, he's lying on one of these two threads. Reminds me of some very old advice - particularly applicable on SI forums: Believe none of what you hear (read) and only half of what you see. A sincere good luck to all investors against Viagra.
