<<Hey if you don't have the experience to understand, fine. Go ahead and buy the stock.>> Well, Retired, I don't really want to belabor this point, but I find comments like the one above insulting. There was really no need to make the attack so personal. Also, your repeated references to "commies" I found derogatory. I would find it equally peculiar if someone was trying to justify buying (or not buying) a stock by raving about "capitalists." I just don't think name calling is a good way to analyze a company's prospects. I don't think I ever hyped this stock. I was one of the people digging to see what could be found about it that was verifiable, regardless of which way the fortune cookie crumbled. At the moment I am still unsure, and so I am on the sidelines, just following it. I must say, however, that IMOT's inclusion in the affiliation of very small companies with high and honest reporting standards will be reassuring if they manage to follow the group's rules. On the other hand, you definitely made money from shorting the stock. I don't have the interest or energy to read all of your posts again, but if you have high personal ethics, it would have been necessary for you to divulge that you were short when you stopped being objective and started raving on about the commies and hard currency.
