Wayne's #4053 prompted me to look at GLOW's recent price history. Well, looking at the daily chart on "cbs.marketwatch.com" gives me the feeling a prime time may be at hand for GLOW investors. Of course these charts deal only with the past and there are no rules for what charts must look like in the future. ON SHORTING: I do know of one situation where the shareholders all "called in their certificates" (they held their paper at home). This took power to use the certificates for any shorting out of the hands of the several brokers. As a result any "shorting" had to be covered. There was no paper to back it (as Wayne is implying for the two Canadian brokers he called) And the price went up very nicely!! Perhaps it's a good time to call in the certs. ON CONFUSSION: But the rules and manners some investors choose to live by can really make a difference for all of us in terms more valuable than price. I can back up and simply say: "People of quality took the initiative to share information, creating this informative thread on April 14th, 2 weeks in advance of a substantial change in GLOW activity." It's people like yourself Brad, and Cheryl, who make the SI experience so valuable to me. Also there are special people who strive to build on and protect the integrity of their investments through interaction in the various discussion groups and demonstrate unique skills by using them to go the extra mile. In my opinion, the equity or value which we most naturally think about so much on these threads will simply follow for those who keep the right perspective as they contribute and read. And Knowing the person behind the words we read is very important so we can weigh the importance of what they have to say most correctly. It is the people, not the price, that is key (IMO) and the combination of similarities and unique skills as we know them that will cause our results to be governed by something totally different than luck. Yet, even in loss there is growing trust for those who we appreciate, strength for further tries and the promise of a greater future success. I have heard those who make it big, end up looking back fondly at their original struggle as "the good times" that they would like to re-live again! For this reason, I have learned in advance these are "the good times". Much Respect over here! Dave
