Sent-to-the-hill, All I have got to say is that this seems to be bear-bull-shit day. IOM is doing about the same as all the Tech stocks lately, particularly the smaller companies, inventor interest has dried up and the prices are drifting down, vacillating, going nowhere. This has nothing to do with IOM per se and certainly nothing to do with Rock-brains-in-absentia with regard to his biased prognostications, warped ideas, false and deceptive crapolla, and downright stupid statements. He and all the discussions on this thread have very little to do with the behavior of this stock. He and we are just pinpricks in the action (nothing to do with needle-dicks) but the true action is by bigger boys that don't waste their time posting messages on SI.

Regards, David S.

I have seen numerous companies with 60% to 80% domination of their niche market where the stocks totally collapsed, either slowly or quickly. During the decline, many asked: Why?, How can this be happening?, and other denials.

Three to twelve months later they find out. They got whipped by smaller co's with newer and better technologies. Some rebounded due to their own prowess of developing new technologies and their awareness of where the technology is shifting. Others went belly up or were bought out at ridiculously low valuation.

We are in technology revolution period. Those who cannot or do not see the trends in technology and what are under developments ready for the marketplace, will end up with the rotten eggs.

>>Hey, i think anyone can be a genius by being an IOM bear and the smartest one might look dumb for the sin of being long in this stock.<<

Senthil -

To earn my respect a person has to be honest, above all. After that comes the ability to present a logical argument to support a viewpoint. If a person has those two qualities, I can respect him or her, whether or not they turn out to be correct in their conclusions.

I think that hyperbole makes it harder to discuss anything. That includes hype both bullish and bearish. If a lot of people are maniacally bullish on this thread, it doesn't help when someone else is maniacally bearish. Two people making no sense on opposite sides still don't make sense.

There are a few people who have responded to the megabulls with reason and logic over the years. Those people are far more helpful than any megabear can be.
