Welcome aboard, Ron. I am active on several threads here on SI and have learned to be alert to first-time posters within a thread whose first utterance is something negative about the stock. This often suggests that they are "bashing" the stock to get it to go down (more down) in price, often for their own interests or because they are encouraged or employed by others who have significant short positions. I tend to look at this behavior to see if it represents disingenuousness (sp?, ie ulterior motive. When such a first utterance is based upon an incorrect interpretation ... and even an incorrect interpretation of something that has been discussed extensively already within the thread ... the alert level goes up even more. I fear that this is the environment into which you stepped when you posted your comment about (planned) sales by insiders. Also.... In two other threads, in which I am an early investor and one of the de facto leadership team of the thread, we have made a conscious decision to immediately post corrective information every time an erroneous post is made. This is because there are many newbies coming into those threads each day and it is important to keep the recent information flow balanced, without forcing the newbies to go back though 4,000 messages. I do not pretend to be a de facto thread leader on this thread, but offer this as possible insight into the zeal with which your information was countered. So, welcome aboard. JSb. Disclaimer: long in ALYA at a ridiculously high basis ... and holding.
