Sometimes I feel a little bit sorry for the people at SEC. With the number of obviously paid shills working around, they must get quite sick of "this short is contrary to my opinions, and anyway its un-american" complaints.

But then I get reflective, and realise that if the SEC had actually managed to stop manipulation of the Zitel stock price, I would not have had so many golden shorting opportunities.

So I would suggest everybody post as many frivilous complaints as possible to SEC. This should waste enough of there time that blantant shills like those on the Zitel yahoo thread can stay in business, and we can keep making money shorting artificially propped up stocks.

As far as the Short Sellers Confessional goes, it is a very good idea. I am far too lazy to do it myself, but I quite like the idea.

I will begin by confessing that yesterday i shorted a number of pure Y2K stocks on the basis that they are extremely overvalued.

I would also like to confess to publically confessing to shorting Y2K stocks in a blatant attempt to encourage others to also short the stocks, thereby driving the price down.

Better yet, let's let the SEC toss all shorters into a pond. Since only true witches and shorters float, the ones that sink and die are innocent. The ones that float need to be burned. I'm soaking myself with gas as we speak....
