>> There is a lot of bad info posted by shorts and we have a right to be skeptical.

And skeptical you should be, but not blind to possible changes in the tide. A message like the one you posted after this is informative and proper; calling someone gullible just because he pointed out some potential bad news is neither informative nor appropriate.

As for what you consider hypocrisy and insult on my part, I disagree. I criticized the behavior and not the person per se i.e. I did not say something like "you are such a blind fool who..." rather I pointed out what the action was as I saw it.

Fight the bad info with the truth and love the shorts, for they are your best chance to see the other side. As far as I am concerned, a person who points out to me why my take on a stock (long or short) may be wrong is doing me a great favor. I go long or short stocks to make money and not to wage religious wars.
