Bruce Batie, Absolutely wonderful post. Right on the money! Regardless of what Barb says, it is evident by her tactics that she is not going to start a short position in Osicom on Monday. She already has a short position. Question is when she went short? If recently, then this is part of her efforts to create doubts in the minds of newer small shareholders so she can benefit at their expense. On the other hand if she went short earlier, then it suggests that she is beginning to worry. Either way, she is in for a big surprise. Clearly she thought that she can play the same manipulation game one more time, like she did earlier this year. What a big mistake. I hope that she will learn from it. It is quite amazing! How this stock has transformed. The longs are actually taunting shorts to short more. And the shorts are out of ammunition. Time to surrender gang. The short party is over. Now, lets talk about the "connections" that Auric has. If the connection he has ( unless it is merely a fantasy) knew any thing, they would have told him to look for the stock trading above 40 by the end of February. And if they told him that, I would say that they are being conservative. They would have told him at this point in time the stock is worth 50 to 60 without any consideration to any of the things that are in the works, and are not public yet. They would have told him that the stock is in a correction mode until it reaches its present fair value. If those connections knew any thing, they would have told him about the identity of the new lead underwriter for the NetSilicon IPO. If these were "in the know" connections, they would have told him about the big joint venture that is in the works. And on and on..... So much for the connections. So, have fun longs. It is our time now. Lets have some fun at the expense of these ignorant "retail shorts" that have been left behinds. The real pros have covered and moved on. These "nickel and dime" shorts are left behind unprotected. Just like a deer looking right into head lights. But, they deserve what is coming to them. I cannot wait for the Monday...... Its show time folks..... Afaq Sarwar

Hmm, so you really believe that it is people talking about the questionable fundamentals of the company that cause the price to fall, and not the questionable fundamentals, right? I'm amazed how the shills always cry about the short sellers pointing out the inconsistencies of a company and blaming that. After all, if you just ignore the problems, they'll go away right? And there's nothing unethical at all about hyping worthless paper to risky levels and encouraging folks to buy, even with though you're only promoting this company on hopes and dreams. If only no one had pointed out that there was no gold, no one would have lost money on BXMNF. It would be a hopelessly stupid strategy to pick a fundamentally sound company and post lies on ‘net chat boards hoping to scare folks out, when one can post the truth about garbage companies and wait for the inevitable correction to fair value. The truly greedy short fundamentally flawed companies like Osicom. The truly stupid explain fluctuations by making up fantasy conspiracy theories and blaming everything but the underlying company. After all, you'd have to admit that you could be wrong to admit that I could be right. So your explanation is that I know you're right and that the company is sound, and that rather than going long I'd post lies in order to scare folks out. Your theory makes no sense at all. Barb
