Another one looking to bail tomorrow. Get in line behind Rande and the rest of the multitudes. Everyone seems to be looking for something to sell into?" Well Val, I'm not looking to "bail" tomorrow, but if the stock does something silly - like go to 25 or 30 - why shouldn't I sell some of my position?

Your posts are starting to get ridiculous. You know, as I do, this was a sleepy thread for a long time and suddenly there is a ton of interest.. WHY is that? A lot of traders have entered the stock... and what do traders do? Buy AND sell. You throw out a STUPID line such as: " Everyone seems to be looking for something to sell into?" No sh$$ sherlock... we bought at a certain price and a lot of us are looking for a price to sell at... just like a short seller has some price he/she is short selling into and another price to buy to cover. WOW! WHAT A CONCEPT! THE LONGS ARE LOOKING for something to sell into.. such as maybe a press release of a web site that probably 90% of the investing community has never heard about? WOW! Thanks for psychoanalyzing us! You got us pegged! You and moby dick are trying to CONSTANTLY goad matt and others on here for such deep and probing answers to questions like: "where are you going to sell at? whats your advice? " blah blah and if they answer A) $12 you will twist it and say "So you think this has 8% price potential!!?!" and if they say B) $25 you will say "Your going to need a ton of suckers to buy this!! Im here to save them!!" So how can any guy who tries to give you shorts an honest answer win? They cannot.. PLEASE! Please tell me and everyone here what your target for SKYM was when it was at say $8... did its WONDERFUL FREAKING fundamentals say it was going to $45??? Did the longs on THAT board have a clue it was going to $45? Hell no.. no idea...the market took over. Please show me the deep analysis and underlying fundamentals that would of told ANYONE it had the potential to return a few thousand percent overnight. Then please submit your analysis for BAMM too...please, Id love to see it.. you guys are just as bad as the people hyping on the long side. You will twist any reference or your DD will all be biased to the bad. No one on the long side can give you an answer that will appease you... so why do you keep asking the same 3 questions over and over... "what is it that will make this go up but hype?" Ok, maybe (just maybe) it will be hype (no internet stocks ever get hyped right??), but you have seen hype on AAGP, BAMM, SKYM and guess what... a lot of people made a lot of money off it, both on the short and long side. If this goes to $30 on "purely hype" guess what, a lot of longs will be making a ton of money.... and then you shorts can short at that level and you can all be happy too. IF you want to "INVEST" in this stock wait 2 weeks for all the hype from both sides to settle and you can buy in then at whatever price the market (supply and demand) deems the price should be.. Sorry if this response sounds peeved, but all I see are the same 2 issues being bantered around for 24 hours... give it a rest .. who cares what you guys say or the long hypesters say, it will go up based on what the press releases say and how widely they are read and distributed... sheesh (p.s. I am waiting for you to respond to this post with "ANOTHER SCARED LONG JUST WAITING TO BAIL!!!" LOOK HOW NERVOUS HE IS!!") at least I have my money where my mouth is, unlike all you "realists" who are here to "save newbies from making a mistake" ... please, why dont you go down to your local homeless shelter and help out there, instead of spreading your pscyhobabble anlaysis and b.s. here. All I know is when I dont have a position in a stock I dont sit on the message board all weekend trying to "save the masses". Mark

It is almost comical the way you twist things Mr. BeWhere.... I always thought you made money in the market this way: 1) Buy low (at $3 like me and many on here-look who started this thread - the date - guess the price he bought the stock at??) 2) Sell high (current prices provide a nice profit - wouldn't ya say?? especially for 1 months work????) I'm sure my % gain on the way up will be better than your % gain on the way down!!! or 1) Short high (like you and many others have/will done/do soon) 2) Cover low (Which is likely to happened as is the case with ALL stocks - nothing goes in one direct in this market game). You've spend way too much energy (you must be wearing out your keyboard with all the posts I've seen in the last day or so) - STATING THE OBVIOUS!!!! Like Bart Simpson would - DUUUUH!!!!! dave!!!
