><David, I can't find any broker that will let me short ZITL. <<
I shorted ZITL today at a full service broker, Piper Jaffray.

Roger,

This is where selling naked calls come in handy! Sell the $5 or $7 1/2 calls and if it continues up just roll out if they come due before it drops! Usually better then selling short, for there's a premium you will collect over and above what the stock price is!
