Hello Keith,

For what its worth, I read your posts too way back. I've been around for months too. Used to post every once in a while on raging bull just to add a new post # (Jan was really dull). Now, I don't bother. When you are up 700% you really don't have much to sweat with the day to day flux.

The shorts here are fun to watch. It's obvious that they have not done any serious DD. I agree that money is to be made on voliatile issues in play, both ways, and I agree that its quite OK to do it! But some people posting here just can't see ASTN has a geniune winning company in a completely unique position. Of course, until the confirmation comes publicly of what we longs have been discussing among ourselves, the shorts will continue to bash. But some, a few companies do in fact, go on to acheive great status and overcome the naysayers. ASTN will be one of them. I hold about the same # of shares as you do, and do a little trading for kicks myself. One more good play in the next week or so, and all my core is free and clear and the margin is covered. Makes all those long and lonely days here seem a very distant thing of the past (and well worth it!).

Good luck to you in the future, and
enjoy yourself!
dd

Hello Keith,

It's good to see you drop by for a visit. I thought maybe you had cashed in your shares and retired to the Bahamas.
The thread has degenerated a bit lately, but we are all still here. Some of us are simply watching in silence with a smug grin on our face. There are still some good posters with great DD. Its like picking grapes. You don't throw the whole cluster aside because there is a few sour grapes on the bunch.
Any way, stop by for a visit again sometime.
