If you wanted a real debate then you should have shown up with a real bear case instead of that broken record. The reason why participants in this forum have not been shaken from their positions by either your arguments or the current market correction is that after doing extensive research, we have formed a long-term view of WinStar's value and have invested accordingly. Far from being a "religious devotion" which would have faith as its underpinning, we have come to this position by understanding the facts. One of the facts that we understand is that the short-term price is of little consequence. In fact, the only day that the price matters is the one on which you wish to sell. What does matter in the short term is whether the company is continuing to execute their business plan, and whether that business plan will ultimately provide WinStar with the desired valuation. To my view, they seem to be doing fine on both counts. If you ever do identify some stocks with sound fundamentals that you would rate a strong buy, be sure to come back and let us know. And when WinStar does go through the roof, don't come back cryin', because we tried to tell you...

Jason, I think that you missed the point. You HAVEN'T given us anything to debate!!! If you had other information that has not been considered by ALL, we would appreciate hearing it. You, on the other hand, haven't even remotely considered our take on Winstar. Who is doing the cheerleading here? We do not bash. I'm sure that if you went back to read your first post and an answer to your questions or concerns, it was kindly answered. You kept beating the same dead horse. Good Luck, Pam
