I did not say much, but I like what you told the Captain. Don't forget, we want to here constructive comments on both sides( negative and positive). Luke

There is nothing wrong with the captains opinion. Frankly, I very much welcome it. No thread without honesty and bullish and bearish arguments is worth their salt. The captain has every right to change his mind after the last qtr and conf. call. This is what investing is all about. The company had very little direction or positive statements. I am still long 3000 shares and will not sell soon, but I have absolutely no confidence in this holding. Actually, I probably would have more respect for a seller than a buyer without some really good info., There are so many great companies with excellent potential doing well today, I don't know why anyone wants to have more than a token holding in CB's puppet. I am long and just HOPING for something good to happen. How can you insult someone for investing on information, even if it bodes poorly for this company. Let's encourage more dioloug from both sides. The more info we all have the better.

I am crazy like a fox. By stirring up a negative position, I was able to bring some positive feed back to the thread. I bought another 500 more CS today, and plan on keeping up this image of negativity and expressing it all the way to the shareholders meeting. For those of you who doubt my long position, just remember, unlike all those who are sour from the 40s, I am now averaged in at 12. So a little lag is no biggie to me.
