Straight Up, >Thank you for your post. I truly believe that you are concerned for me and the others that are still holding onto General Magic.< I appreciate that. Obviously, Kurt doesn't feel the same way. >I am trying not to take offense to your post - I get the feeling that you are trying to tell me that you are much smarter than me.< Sorry if I came across that way. It wasn't my intention. As it happens, I spent 2 1/2 hours with my tax man last night and was surprised to learn of the $3000 max on investment loss write-offs. (I've never needed to use it before). I thought it might help others when evaluating their position in this stock or any other stock. >I do hope that we can continue the forum in a productive way without criticizing each other for what we believe. I respect your opinions and choices and I hope that you respect mine.< No problem, and contrary to what Kurt thinks, I am NOT short this stock. The only reason I mentioned the post on AOL regarding the secondary was to let non-AOL members on this thread know what is being said over there. Period. The thanks I get for this? Kurt calls me a manipulator. Whatever. If I was really trying to manipulate a stock, I wouldn't do it on a Friday night. In case Kurt hasn't noticed, the stock market is closed on Saturday and Sunday. Besides, they can't do a secondary without doing a filing anyhow. Just keep your eyes open. That's all I'm trying to say. As Always, Good Luck, VIPER-------<
