R.D.--Sure, you could have made money as a short of EGRP at a good number of places along the way, and you also could have lost your shorts (sorry...) at a number of places along the way, also. The real question is where does the stock go from here, and with the gigantic increase in volume that we're already experiencing, I'm very sanguine about the future of this stock, particularly long-term. I think your point about insider selling is a reasonable caution light, although I don't consider it as a given that the stock is headed into the toilet. It's one factor among many that should be considered, in my view, and the weight that you give it will likely depend in large part whether you're here for the short-term or the long-term.
