Be optimistic TG, it could happen! I don't think shorting can be completely done away with. Maybe controlled in some way. Right now we are at the mercy of mm's. HELLO! I talked to Tilton. I didn't bring it up, although I tried to get there a couple of times, the dreaded rs. Tilton said, "No matter what, he never wants to do a rs!" He even brought up the idea to put out a news release about NOT EVER doing one! I told him I didn't know. We wondered if anyone has ever put out a news release stating that. Have they? The way I feel about it, since he never plans to do one, I feel much, much better about my TNRG investment! I'm very optimistic about the direction TNRG is headed and am looking forward to the next few months! KZAP

<< RE:MM shorting...tell me how the SEC can ever stop shorting of stocks by off-shore firms? >> Real simple, limit the number of short shares anyone may acquire in one day - and make the market post ("..short..") in every short trade report. If a legitimate investor wants to accumulate shorts; he shouldn't mind doing it over a period of several days/weeks/months; with everybody seeing what's going down. We wouldn't know who - but we'd all be able to count "what". If he does mind - then the intention is probably not to make a gain by the application of personal logic; but, to destroy the stock from without for personal gain. Hell of a difference between laughing at a broken window - knowing who did it! .....And, throwing a rock through a perfectly good window - because you are a miserable, self-serving prick! Yes, no.....maybe?!? Ooooops! Forgot...! The miserable, self-serving, company-wrecking, manipulators probably weren't inhaling when they placed their foreign trades - so it must be okay. And, when they finally face having to testify about their "insider information" - they'll do it from Millken's old office via encrypted fiber-optic transceivers. [Ain't America Great...!!] Obviously this logic will be lost on the SEC, Washington, and the manipulators.
