OT david, I would like to respond to you on this subject one more time (fell free to post all you like later). Because I find this particularly odious due to the fact that it preys upon novice market players. Making one's shares untradable is not tantamount to being 'out of harms way' in the stock market. Especially in these unsure times. IMO, your advice could put a novice investor in a bad position should this stock begin to tank for some reason. Yahoo! says the float for TAVA is 17.9 million shares. Therefore, if you are correct, you can account for 0.8% of the float locked up. Who gives a s**t? If there are professional shorts hitting this stock (something we have already witnessed. BTW, they have covered.) 1) it would be tanking and 2) the amount of capital they have would not take any notice of what you do. No experienced trader would ever call in any certs. That's ridiculous. Not only that, but your rallying cry to call in certs is a well-known technique used by short sellers here on the SI boards. Fact. >>Shorts are starting to get nervous,you can tell by their posts.<< Really? Give it a rest, Bond
