AH, here's part one of a two part series designed to set the record straight on certain things that you ACCUSED me of in your recent posts. Once I am done I won't let you distract me from my contribution to this thread anymore. However I feel, and will always feel the need to respond to accusations or correct you when you quote me out of context. 1) <<AH: You move in and start asking your usual questions about rumours and GPW. It looks you don't know anything about the GPW plans for expanding through acquisitions. You are surprised and demand an explanation.>> <<You get a shot of information that cannot be questioned. Buying other companies by GPW is NOT a rumour, NOT an illegal insider information, NOT cheerleading, NOT a promotion. It is a company strategy which is a common knowledge to the shareholders of the GPW stock and, I presume, short players.>> <<On one hand, anything positive or constructive said on this thread is labelled by you as a result of some illegal or self-serving activity, on the other, you keep repeating that you know more than the public>> ANSWER: NO I have never said and repeat that I do not know more than the public. You misinterpreted what I said. YES I do question the timing and/or the intentions behind certain posts that SEEM to suggest knowledge of something imminent or the spreading of rumours. If everybody knows it is a corporate strategy wouldn't it be more constructive to discuss the merits and the risks of this strategy, review and discuss acquisitions as they happen as opposed of posting silly comments like: "I think the stock will move next month". In at least one case I read that the management was out of town and it was then implied that there could be news. What motivates someone to say such a thing, especially if they know it is true. 2) <<But it does not stop you from implying that Gary might be a part to a conspiracy group that promotes GPW at the expense of the little guy.>> ANSWER: NO I don't think there is a conspiracy to promote GPW at the expense of the little guy. YES I think that GPW is being promoted by a bunch of little guys. 3) <<You make again an attempt to divide the thread into cheerleaders and reasonable investors who are happy to see you voice their concerns. Yet, you are not a shareholder and you keep saying that your money is ridding the GPW horse.>> ANSWER: NO I am not trying to divide I am trying to offer my point of view. NO I am not a shareholder. NO my money is not ridding the GPW horse. 4)<<If you want to make people to sell, do a better job. This is too transparent.>> ANSWER: NO I am not trying to make anybody sell, or buy. 5) <<In my opinion, you just make negative and infantile noises that contribute nothing 'constructive' to this forum.>> ANSWER: Thanks for your opinion.
