Chris - you have way too much emotion involved with PRFM and the number one cardinal rule in investing is NEVER get emotionally attached to a stock. Look at technical, look at fundamentals, examine the background/intentions of the management, whatever - but DO NOT fall in love with a stock. I guarantee you will lose out in the long run. Believe me, corporate management does not give a rat's a** if you make money or lose it - it's your decision and your's alone. Moby.

Chris, Why does the CFO leave a stock that is on fire to pursue other opportunities? I also don't like a company that issues press releases (void of real content) on a near daily basis. Anthony, What is your current feeling about WCTI (I am long until the launch). What questions did you need answered before deciding if it will be a good future short? In general, would you exit a long/ or enter a short position on a stock like this just before the launch or just after. Reading your thread the past week has really opened my eyes. Great thread. Thanks, Rob

Mr Land, Where is the spite? My statements are based in fact. As are Anthony's. It is all there in a black and white paper trail at edgar. SEC docs are the "truth". If my father took your position in PRFM I would tell him the same thing. I would not be much of a son if I let him buy and sit in a stock that is going to lose him money. I can tell you this, in 1 week to 2 weeks Anthony, myself and all the other shorts that are in PRFM will likely be gone and you know what, the price of PRFM will settle to it's fair market value based on those SEC documents. The people that will lose out the most will be the insiders that could not sell their stock for $15 a share. I have been where you are and I was warned and I did not listen. I left the market for good for months afterwards and spent much time reflecting. The company I was involved in was halted and to this day does not trade. The CEO that I put so much faith in took everyone's money and then let the comapany go under. The stock was halted for making "misleading" press releases. The shorts and naysayers that I so despised were right and if I could have taken my blinders off and listened to them I would have spared myself the self-humiliation that I feel to this very day. You can take this post how ever you like but it will not change the truth and what happens to PRFM's share price. I truly do wish you happiness and prosperity. Sincerely, Hraka

Chris, shorts can't destroy a company that makes money When they file their earnings with the SEC , and they are showing growth , there is nothing a short can do to them You have chosen to give your money to someone who has already declared bankruptcy . then you want to make accusations of others who don't trust him ... who is the foolish one here ? I believe someone else already made the statement - if you believe in these people , and are in it for the long term , then you've got nothing to argue about. It's your money - you want to make these gambles , no one can force you to keep your money . We didn't declare his prior bankruptcy - he did.

Chris, You're making some blanket statements that don't invite others to converse pleasantly and productively with you. You might want to reconsider the way you communicate and think how your current posts will look to you after you have more experience on a trading board. Dave

Chris: I really urge you to listen to these guys. Like you I was long on PRFM and only got out today, at a loss I might add. Initially, like you, I was upset by these shorts. It seemed like they were trying to destroy a legitimate opportunity, simply for their own gain. I am sure they would be the first to admit that they are in it for the money but they are also right! By the same token, longs who continually hype up the stock are also, primarily, in it for the money. Anthony and his followers know what they are doing and, if you know what you are doing, you don't short a legitimate stock which has the potential to rise. That would not make any sense. If you truly believe in this company (and you should check out all the evidence that has been offered) then, by all means, stick with it. Shorters can only influence the price for as long as they hang around. There are plenty more fish to fry. BTW, I am not a short. I am relatively new to speculative trading and I don't have the expertise (or the guts!) to handle it yet. However, if I did, I would be shorting, no doubt about it. PP
