Mad2, as in life, our hind site is 20/20. It is to easy to tell others after the fact, that they should have done this or that for a better outcome. Do I wish I had a percentage of my position traded in and out for profits, sure. Am I sorry that I did not short PRST, no. It is not my nature to go that far against the grain. Fear may be a better description. All I can do is average down my convictions. Am I wrong, no. Less profitable for now, yes. As for James going long? Gosh what a joy to think that a guy who comes on here and attacks anyone who dare stand against his pabulum (although profitable) and personal, vicious jabs would now change his spots. He should not let the door hit him in the ass. Notice that even Paul is not capable of meaningful dialogue without the continued use of derogatory name calling. Let us try and discuss the market and the business of PRST. I believe that the gizmo called the 4th generation laser diode may be at the top of the IRR list for the majority of the 24+ million dollars on hand at PRST. Investment in the future is all right with me. Even at the painful notion of reduced earnings in the short term. If it stays down just a bit longer I will be able to use some coming windfall to get in again. Good luck to each and all. SG

Dear Mad2, I will come back as a long when Carlton has given up and/or Scott quits posting. I won't be comfortable on the same side as either one of those esteemed gentlemen investors. I can buy good stories now at 10x earnings. With PRst earning 2 cents per quarter, I may start to consider it at under a dollar. Oh, BTW, what is Carlton's sale point? Is he getting near? Oh Scott ... what about another countdown? IPEX did nothing. How bout counting down the number of days left to take your loss?
