Foxy, <<<<<<<<<<<When wondering what Razorbak's MO is, perhaps he is trying to help cleanse the market of the flotsam so that we can make way for some new blood. It is just a normal part of the business cycle. The market needs "shorts" just as badly as it needs "longs". It forms a built in "correction system". PAIN (oops, AIPN)needed correcting. FoxyLoxy>>>>>>>>> If that is his MO then it is perfectly fine with me. I think shorts only make a stock stand up for itself. Defining himself as a shorter of AIPN would at least be a definition which is all I seek. DrRisk

FoxyLoxy, Razor and DrRisk One thing I have noticed is that it seems that those who have questioned the credibility and the motives of other posters are one and the same as those who have wagered lots of money on the entrepreneurial, wildcatting, potential of AIPN. Not intending to be "throwing stones" but merely making an observation. Thus it appears to me that the proper perspective to have is to not worry about the other posters and certainly not to jump to conclusions about potential. Based on the behavior of various posters, both the tendency to accept mere potential while simultaneously worrying about others seems to have some correlation with a less than desirable personal outcome in the marketplace. <tongue firmly in cheek> There is clear value in Razor's, FoxyLoxy and Dr Risk comments; I don't care whether they represent long short or zero positions. As for my perspective, I think there is a lot to be said for putting money into the companies that have proven how to report positive prospects and a history of real growth in the SFAS69 disclosure. But it's still a pleasure to discuss and play devil's advocate with the remainder.
