Hi Colleen. You know Colleen, your right, its time to stop and eat and get away from this machine. But for the record just one more time and Doug Lapp please read this statement: I haven't owned MINE, I have never owned MINE, I may OWN MINE in the future. I have never profitted from my GURU call of CYA at $1.50. LOOK at the post (SELL SELL SELL) I didn't own the freakin STOCK!! If there is money to be made than make it, just do not rub the longs noses in the fact that they bought what you sold for a quick profit. Message 5117700 I don't do it nor do I threaten to do it!!!! Get it now?, longs feel used and abused by the daytraders .A lot of day traders pump a stock and then jump off the teeter totter laughing all the while, yellihg, SUCKER! Please find any post where I either attempt to suppress or pump! I have made the fatal error of suggesting in caps to remove your initital investment. A philosophy supported by every savvy market player/manager/guru/broker/financial analyst on the planet. PARDON ME! My apologies to all, I shall retire from this onesided thread and complete my DD in private. Once again I wish you all well and hope you make out well on this venture. No hard feelings just tired of onesided banter!! the Chief

Coleen: I am defending no one, however I would like to say that many, many investor's (so-called day-trader's) we're holding this stock long. Looking at some of the most popular SI threads (other than GE <gg>), I was surprised at the amount of posts centered on MINE. By definition a day-trader is someone who closes out all their positions at the end of each day. Anyone who bought as a day-trader yesterday could have only lost $$. One rule that cost me tons of cash to learn with pennies, is always know where you are going to get out (minimum bid) even before you make your initial purchase. There were a lot of people yesterday who had to re-adjust their position based on their own comfort level. Once the 8-K hit, I'm certain some reconsidered what their comfort level was...based on their interpretation of that document. Remember that anyone who bought should have written off their investment before pulling the trigger. If they were worried, they should not have bought. We had a real nice friendly and helpful thread here, and as usual when things go South on a BB stock, blame is passed everywhere, when in fact the blame clearly rests on the shoulders of the buyer him/herself. Certainly, no one expected trading on the pink sheets, and yes it is not only an inconvenience but also unfair to many investor's...or is it unfair? My belief is that anytime you are involved in a BB stock, with no real rules to speak of, you are at the mercy of not only the MM's, company managers, presidents, and IR's, but also stock manipulators. In no way did I see any influential posts from anyone yesterday or today that could be called "manipulation". At the frezied pace the stock was trading it was impossible to be manipulated. Think of the trading during the Oracle debacle of last October. Trades were going by so fast that it was impossible to even track them at quote.com. There were something like 20 million shares traded that day. No room for manipulation their either. We always welcomed new posters before, and I don't feel that getting extremely picky about the EXACT wording of a post or using capital letters, is worthy of all the bickering and nit-picking. Why not try to get back to doing some more DD. --GARY--
