BAM--you still don't understand that i, roger, tom and others are traders...

with a stock this volatile, as a short seller, you must be nimble...

i was by no means scared off by the rally...far from it...

i shorted again this morning at 114 and will ride it back to 100 where again i will have to decide whether to cover...

fwiw, i also saw pcln get slammed on cnbc...the other guy who recommended going long is from the sell-side...part of the syndicate...

he has an underwriting relationship with pcln so he obviously can't be trusted...

one more time for the record, BAM...i am a trader...i have 7 profitable ss on pcln and started my 8th position today...

good luck to you,

BAM--tom and i first showed up here when pcln was above 140...

you warned us that we would get killed shorting pcln...

we are up more than 30% and your warning to us now looks like irrational defensiveness...

we warned you about the patents and you laughed...

we do not look so stupid now...

i am currently in my 8th profitable short sale of pcln...

it seems that if investors had listened to you, they would be reaching for the prozac now...

and if they listened to us, then they are now using trip.com to plan their celebratory vacation...

good luck to you...
