From one James to another, yup I am addicted. But remember I went SI cold turkey for 10 days last week, and will again in a couple of hours. Right now though, I have the work all caught up, 1.5 hours before I leave for the airport, and nothing better to do....well other than emailing a couple of reporters (Bob Ortega, you are in danger of being scooped again, but that's the nature of the business) to try to get some articles going on how the SEC is doing such a fine job of protecting the investors with MINE, how the MM's make their dough at the expense of the investors, how the SEC has done more to contribute to the hype than anyone, save maybe some of us on this thread, especially more than GE, how Terry Turner does more to warn potential investors than the SEC could ever dream of doing. Hell even the SEC went on public record saying "we hope all that glitters is gold". You'd never hear TT saying something like that, at least not without a disclaimer saying to wait for more info. SEC does though, in their muddled way of protecting us. SEC?????? Boggles the mind. Halt the stock for 10 days, a month after a news release. Why did they wait the month? Why didn't they do it last year, or whenever Guido's first numbers came out? Why 10 days, they say to "get the word out", well it worked, the word got out, the trading started, a lot of people made a bit of money, a lot of people bought in way too high (the one's the SEC is protecting) and the MM's keep laughing all the way to the bank every day since. Say, anyone have a guess as to what shares were bought at $1.75. I'll bet they cost that MM less than .10. No way did they come from one of us. Anyone get or know of anyone that got $1.75 for their shares. Yada yada yada, Later, Jim
