Well in the interim think of this (just occurred to me). Jack has agreed to meet with a group of investors (as reported on RB thread and here I think) and I think everyone here can agree that we can trust these people to tell the truth about the company. Now why would Jack agree to these people coming there if it was a scam? Answer - he wouldn't. He would say "look we are too busy right now to have investors running around the office - lets agree to do this in say 90 days". He did not do that. He said "yeah, great idea, come on down I'll make the time to meet with them and show them what we are doing." Speak volumes, IMO. This trip is analogous to TM's Boca trip to DCGR. Proof is in the pudding. Eric

Good post, Cliff! It reminds me of the crap table in Vegas. The person betting against the dice has slightly better odds than those betting with the dice....but the rest of the table hates him/her because he is going against the other players (by convention). The person shorting a stock ought to be just as much offended by the "GO MTEI" nothing to say post--as the long player is always offended by the "all the way to the bottom!" nothing to say post! I have personally never shorted a stock because it does go against human nature...sort of like bungie jumping! But it is a skill I will acquire some day because it is obviously part of the investor's arsenal. SOLON (doesn't often bet the "don't pass" line cause everyone gets frosty...hmmm)!
