The problem here is not the negative opinions, it is the way YOU GUYS HAVE DECIDED TO DEAL WITH THEM.

Hi Chris!

Yes, I think you mentioned MUCH <g>....and you have a good point about the DD that is already here....but money makes people funny and most people need constant reassurance. That's why if a basher posts a legitimate question or raises a legitimate point, I think it wise to answer it politely.

But....just in time for me to use as an example....there was a post just made on DGIV which tried to imply that the Rocketeers was a cult. That type of post, which has nothing to do with the fundamentals of the company, is the very type of post that should simply be ignored.

It is that type of post that is meant to annoy people by implying ridicule. It is that type of post to which unfortunately many have chosen to respond.

Any derogatory or belittling post which has nothing to do with the fundamentals of the company should be ignored.

And now, I'm going to finish cleaning up my office. Amazing the amount of junk it has accumulated over the past few weeks.

Take care, and good luck! Talk to ya later!

Juanita (MOM)

Well Chris, I for one had no interest in this stock thread until some one called Dixie7777 started making unfounded statements and doing violence to what has been well known throughout SI as an April Fool's joke. The site was put up as a spoof. And it was a good natured effort that did no one any harm. As it turns out all expense was spared in a wholly volunteer effort. Even those taken in thought it was a good gag.

Now several months later it is represented as a sinister hype attempt, by those attempting to make personal conclusions about someone who has posted here.

I think those of you that subscribe to Dixie's attempt to discredit should look real hard in the mirror. You should be more than a little embarrassed for supporting that view, regardless of your position in the stock. The shame of your participation in this is yours.

Oops! Got ready to leave and then thought of just one more point.

If a basher should try to attack an individual, directly to that person....then ...depending on the type of attack...I think that it should either be ignored or responded to with politeness and/or humor.

Why? Remember....people are always weighing the actions of others. If a person is attacked, many are watching with interest to see what that person's response would be. For me, I would perhaps respond a couple of times...but in a polite and/or fun manner...and then if the person tried to keep it up....I would then just ignore the attacks.

I would've already proven what my response would be by "keeping my cool" and if the basher kept it up, I would just ignore and enjoy seeing him/her make an a##hole of themselves with no help from me.

Best to you,
Juanita
