Another interesting thought. Do the comments of anyone on this thread, long or short, actually move the stock?

jim, i have also examined the profiles of those posting on this thread. i have a list of 25-30 people claiming to be long wcti. all joined SI since 1 jan 99. most post only on this thread. i wonder if they're also here for one reason? don't you just love that SI feature that allows you to read all the messages from a member under his/her profile. you probably won't believe it but back in the early days of SI when there were only a couple thousand members, that feature was added because of my recommendation to the founders of this site (the Dryers). still one of the most useful features. yes i've been here for a while. i'll be here when the cheerleaders are gone.

Jim, There are four possible scenarios: 1. They are short and trying to knock the price down (most likely) 2. They want to go long but not at these prices (highly doubtful due to the content of some of their posts) 3. They have nothing better to do (my second choice) 4. They are just plain do-gooders who are trying to save us from ourselves (while I'd really like to believe there are still people out there like this, reality tells me its everyone for themselves, especially in the market) Fact of the matter is, they've already scared out all the longs that were weak long ago; now they may prevent a potential investor from going for it once or twice a week, but I'm sure there's no effect on the price. What remains is a newfangled comedy team who can be quite humorous if you don't take them seriously. Of course, its easier for those of us who've locked in profit and are only playing with 'gambling' money. As for whether they are one and the same person, well, if so, then BRAVO! you should be writing TV or movie scripts.

you got me all wrong, slim. I sold my WCTI for a pretty good profit. My deal is the way the suckers on this thread are a bunch of P-ssies. This thread is not objective. you didn't want to hear about ken bell from me, now look what you are dealing with. the bonneville pacific stuff wasn't hard to find. I'll bet some of you knew about it but were afraid to be objective and knew if you brought it to the thread you would be bashed. If you didn't know about it then how did an amatuer from Texas ( Member since Feb.1) find it? I know how. Its because of all this "DD" you do. Here's a hint: when you do DD be sure to include all the officers of the company. If you find suspect info, post it! Post the good, mediocre and bad. It all is included in DD. I don't want to tell this story again.

I doubt if anyone short here or pseudo-short feel left out and want to catch the next boat. The boat has already left and WCTI has missed in terribly. Does any rational mind think that they have anything left in the kitty to fight Inktomi and the other well capitalized and NOW FUNCTIONING search engines. This is now an old news stock waiting for the reaper. For those of you hoping for a Novell deal, that is like the Andrea Dorea waiting on the Titanic for help. Novell is hardly a major force anymore. How many up and coming system analysts do yo think ponder the thought of "Should I get Microsoft or Novell certified?" The real question is not how far this crypt will fall, but will it zero out before the millineum. BOTTOM LINE---No presently viable product. No present vision of not being an also-ran. Not enough real capitalization to matter, of course this is all in my own humble opinion. It is probably just a matter of time before Anthony or some other shorter group drives this baby down to oblivion. There is no reason for any excitement to surround this stock. That simply means that it is unlikely for any real and new money to plow into it. But there are thousands of reasons for money to flow out, like viable functioning company's with earnings reports. Of course once again I offer my disclaimer that this is all in my opinion. --Have a nice day --Flap

* O T * One day these bustouts (trader14u, robf, doc & pretendmoney) will be able to afford to buy 100 shares. - oh that's right - one of them pretends to operate a hedge fund. Keep working on it guys - for weeks without any volume this is as low as its gonna get ... HINT - BUY NOW - WAKE UP A__holes, buy your 25 shares now while its still affordable. Otherwise your gonna miss the run up AGAIN. Think of it as mission completed - then you can start doing something new - like buying low and selling high. LONG & STRONG - despite the fact that they busted this thread up. I won't post my DD on this thread, I will send PM's to those who'll spread the word. I don't want any shorts to see when THE you know what is gonna come. WCTI is gonna make me rich
