Glenn thanks for your frank response.

I feel the say way. I have only shorted twice, during the Sept meltdown, but got dinged both times. Also didn't like the fact that I found myself searching for negative news on those companies. Just my psychological bias, I guess.

I believe when I am done with the KTEL and AMZN short, I am sone shorting
forever. Just long positions when the stock looks like a good buy.

I cannot express enough the amount of stress and frustration being short the
nets has caused. I still try to be polite if I can:-)<<

Glenn that's good; very dangerous to be shorting this stock now. Go long with a comfortable amount.

I hear you. The only regret I have from coming from the old school.
If you don't believe in the business fundamentals and you can smell the stench. Pass.
As you know my pet comment has always been "It's not what I think, It's what Wall Street does".
If had just keep that advice. I too could be another Seattle billionaire.
This EarthWeb frenzy is beyond comprehension.
