John: I agree with your post about shorting. I personally do not engage in it, either. One reason is that I disagree with what I consider the underlying philosophy of it, (wanting things to fail) but people short, and make a lot of money. However, I feel that the SEC facilitates manipulation by not requiring that the short positions on all stocks be revealed to investors. I also think it should be a bimonthly report. It is all done by computers, now. There would be no extra work involved. Maybe if enough people register their dissatisfaction, things will change. BTW, I called.
