Requesting certificates and "taking them off the street" can easily be arranged with your broker. It is a tactic that has been used on the DGIV thread wtih success.

I have heard this so many times! I have sent e-mail to etrade about how I might be able to lock my shares away electronically to keep out of the hands of shorters and so far, no response. I do not indeed on selling a single share and would love to have the hands of shorters cuffed! Any help anyone?

At Your Own Risk! While I do not know anything about Mark's intentions, I must mention that I've seen this used in a similar situation as a shorter's technique to stop stockholders from selling on the way down. I will never ask for my certs on a BB stock. Things happen way to fast. You could be risking putting yourself in a position of trying to get out of something, if you even can, at rock bottom. Call in your certs and you severely limit your options. That's one side of the coin. See this post for alternatives: exchange2000.com Cheers, Bond
