I have a PhD and an advanced degree in Optical/Electrical Engineering... Hey, congrats. I'm impressed. Honestly. It shows how little you know to attack me based on crap like that rather than admit I was right in shorting LBOR at 27+, 17+ and 16+. Oh, please. You've read the abuse I've taken from the shorts. You don't hear me complaining. Why is this any different than how I've slammed at the Pink thread? From the longs' side, I can tell you that there is an incredible amount of frustration, as most believe that over half of the decline from the 52 week high to the present is attributable to unfounded rumors. As I've been saying as my mantra as this whole blasted thing started, why has no substantiation been provided? There's been incredible charges thrown out that many of the more knowledgeable longs have refuted, only to be called shills and crybabies. Hey, I'm not a shill and I'm certainly not a crybaby - my only expectation is that if somebody is saying this or saying that about the co., then they best be able to document their basis for such comments. What passes for gospel on some of these threads is nothing more than rumors repeated enough times to create the appearance of actuality. So, Seuss, when somebody like myself rips into you, it often is because one is tired of some of the games played on these threads. Nothing more, nothing less. You both may kiss my hairy yellow butt! PS It's really not hairy, I just like saying that. I don't know why I'm asking this, but what about the yellow? Yuck.

<<I have a PhD and an advanced degree in Optical/Electrical Engineering. I've had more Calc. classes than you have hair on your head.>> Having a fine head of hair, the issue becomes one of how much you are exaggerating....frankly, I am less impressed than Khris....I would be far more impressed by your actions rather than your claims and thus far there is little there to impress.... <<I have made 10's of thousands of dollars shorting LBOR since mid August.>> ...and I bought 2000 shares of LBOR at 5 and have enjoyed three 3 for 2 splits (cutting my cost basis to around $2....I sold half the position at 33 and nearly all the rest at 37....I have had 2 profitable trades since and one slightly unprofitable....I have a small long position which I will add to as appropriate.....Frankly, both of our investment positions are of no consequence to anyone but ourselves....but, again, if your braggadocio was for my benefit....it was wasted.......... <<You both may kiss my hairy yellow ....!>> Again, less than impressed.....
