Zeev and his groupies don't have an agenda? Yeah right!

Robert, I agree. I think we are seeing the final act. Maybe the flurry of posts from the "death spiral group" is related to the end of the year. The pace and intensity has picked up immensely. Bruce has blown the cover with his overzealousness. Maybe they need to keep him out of the next play. What makes the group so obvious is their professional demeanor and gracious attitudes. "This really looks like a stock with interesting potential. Too bad there is this problem and that problem." "Just thought you guys ought to know, you could really lose a lot of money here and I sure wouldn't want that to happen. But, I can understand the attractiveness of this issue to the uninformed. That is why I am taking so much time here. I smell a rat and I just thought you ought to know. By the way did I tell you I smell a rat. Oh, by the way, I smell a rat. I didn't forget to tell you did I? Don't worry. I'll tell you again in case you missed it. What else have I got to do with my time." Another interesting coincidence. The volume and intensity of the posts by the group seems to pick up whenever the price of the stock is drifting down. A little wind for its sails perhaps.

Robert, For the record,I do not own any VLNC, Nor have I owned any, nor have I shorted any. If you will run a search of this string for my name (or in my profile for that matter) you will find that I first arrived on this string about two weeks ago. At the time, I was attracted to VLNC and was in the DD stage of my investment. About the same time, I noticed that my cyber-friend Zeev was declaring the previous floorless to be dead and gone. Hey, when a floorless dies, the stock will multiply. The S3 and 8K came out about the same time and you will find that IT WAS ME THAT BROUGHT THE NEW FLOORLESS ISSUE TO ZEEV'S ATTENTION. I'm sure he would have found it sooner or later. I honestly could not understand why he was passing out the party hats when the new floorless was right there in the 8K and the S3. Zeev tried to save me in the CTYS fiasco and the least I could do was return the favor. In the interest of civility, I will ask you to hold off on your decision to hold Zeev in contempt until you have gotten an opportunity to get to know him. Check out my profile to see when I wrote that story and where it was first posted. You will find that it was on the Yahoo CYOE board. Zeev was not around that board or the CYOE SI board either. Most importantly, take the time to do your DD and check out as many of the ten or so examples Zeev provided you in his earlier posts tonite. Check out all of them. Check out the boards and see for your self just how familiar this story is. Lastly go to the SI "Floorless" board and read the entries there. SI is a place where people who are more serious than most go to exchange ideas. If we weren't more serious, we wouldn't have paid the price of admission to this forum. Zeev is the CEO of his own company and I am a Mortgage Banker. We are not actors. If all we wanted to accomplish here was to make money, we would have shorted this pig and moved on. This stock will live or die on it's own without our help and so will you. Don't let emotions make your investment decisions for you. I did and it cost me an extra year before I can retire. Which player in the play are you? Bruce
