I imagine we all have better things to do than bicker. Thus, this will be my last post on what I believe to be a non-substantive issue. 1) You all can say I blamed someone else for my mistake if you like. The reality is that I didn't & I've made that clear in previous posts. 2) I'll acknowledge that I've not contributed a lot to this board (bought shares for the 1st time less than 1 wk. ago). That being the case, people asked & commented that the lock-up period was expiring & a person cited exhaustive sources in an effective attempt to disprove this. It's not that the posts were on their face obviously incorrect, but that their point was completely (I used patently) incorrect. 3) He who posted the incorrect info. acknowledged it was wrong. 4) That the stock I bought has gone down is "that's life" kinda reality. 5) I threw in my two cents -- indicating I believe it's dangerous when someone posts incorrect info. he reasonably expects others to accept as true & rely on in making investment decisions. The fact that this person posted this info. w/ significant detail & citations made it appear to be more likely to be accurate. 6) I'm now ready to move on to another topic & watch INKT rise.
