You shorts really need to check your egos at the door. Though I NEVER short stocks, truly a monkey could short these net high fliers such as CMOZ and ECEC. Though I did not get into CMOZ at $1.60 (yes kicking myself) I did ride ECEC from $1.25 to $21. THEN, and only THEN did the shorters come out en masse stating how brilliant they were to start shorting the stock as it peaked in the $18 - $20 range. BRILLIANT, just abso-friggin-lutely BRILLIANT! Please. A monkey could short a stock at that point and after that kind of assinine runup. Short the damn thing and take your money to the bank but don't brag about your excellent shorting strategies. Good luck to all CMOZ longs. - Stroke
