MadMouse, Great post..Excellent analogy. If these guys aren't any better at their jobs then to "dump" their shares that quick, then we NEED to know about it. I give Mr. Lu credit for being more savvy than that. It's painful to read this thread this morning. One of our posters who everyone appreciates everyday for his helpful posts sees something that scares him. He feels his investment is threatened and he posts in a panic. Yes, absolutely, he was frantic, and fearful...but I think to react with intelligent, calm, rational posts from (possibly) more experienced investors/posters/friends would have been far better than the vicious attacks, accusations and comments that he received. I really didn't even know one of the people on this thread, who I have greatly admired in the past for his kindnesses had it in him to be so mean...repeatedly. You changed your opinion of this panicked investor in a heartbeat, just like he did DMEC with that S-8 he read. Quick to judge and quick to criticize. Now it's possibly been cleared up, but those words are still there for all to read, always. As I see it, a concern was voiced and GABard came and explained it. (Thank you so very much Gary!) Others, such as yourself MM, "fine tuned" that explanation. I appreciate, and I'm sure Elio appreciates those of you who took the time to "show him the light". His decisions can be made more rationally now. I hope this thread returns to it's civil tone soon. If I was a new investor looking into this thread, and I depended on anonymous posters on a public forum's opinions to make my investing decisions...then I would take DMEC off my "watch list" and move on. Being civil should come more readily to our "fingers" than attacks; especially with friends. (I would sincerely hope that no investor would make an investing decision based on a late Friday night, panicked post from an unknown on a SI thread!) Ok, sorry, but I have seen this before, and I don't want it to start up with my DMEC. I have stuck by it through thick and thin for 15 months now, and I don't want to see this thread make the experience any more painful...especially now when it is getting interesting again! Have a great weekend, gentlemen...and I have no doubt you all are "gentlemen". E'Lane Thanks again Gary. Hope no problems come from your posting.
