Skipard, sir, thanks for your updates on what's happening with CCSI. It looks like Gretchen Morgenstern is being used to deliver the coup de grace on this company.

There are a few items in your posting that I am confused about, and I wonder if you would be good enough to clarify them.

The first is:

<I personally have a buy program that I am going to put into effect after reading their report,>

and

<I don't know where the stock is going to be on Monday or Tuesday, and I personally will be on the sidelines, until the playing field is leveled a little bit, that is, after I get to see their report.>

For some reason I've identified you as someone with a substantial long position in CCSI. These posts seem to suggest that you currently don't have any position whatsoever. It's a bit confusing.

The other item is: one of the articles lists the short interest in CCSI as substantially less than the 4mm shares you've discussed here in this thread. Any idea what might account for the discrepancy? Personally, I would tend to take your number. If I look at

viwes.com

and talley the 3+ million shares they show with the selling that has gone on this past week, 4mm shares short seems like a reasonable number.

Anyway, I trust you realize that the point of this post is not in any way to discredit you, but to bring as much clarity to what is a complex and often confusing situation.

>>>These people destroy companies to make a buck, it does not concern them one iota who gets screwed in their process. What they are doing is ILLEGAL, but no one takes any actions, or cares<<<

So your recommendation is to sell, correct? I mean, why would anyone hold a security if powerful, organized folks are going to destroy the company, especially if no one cares?

BTW, the last published short interest figure is 3.1 million. How do you come up with 4 million?
