Today IS the day

Buy some today...

By this summer you will have made a substantial, & quick, profit


and then says only a year later:

Nice try. Please find and give us the link to a single message - EVER - where I suggested that Zonagen was a
"screaming buy". For that matter, find a post where I recommended buying it at all. I have ALWAYS stated that
investing in Zonagen, like ALL developing biotech/biopharm companies is very risky - and long term. Not for
the faint of heart, or those with a short term horizon.


Whoops! I guess Dauntless must be, (dare I say it?) a LIAR. No surprises there. I guess he and Claud forgot having been instrumental in Vlad's being kicked off SI, too.

Dauntless: So many lies to tell and so little time!

Wexler & Kaplan - Identical twins

I'm really impressed that you could come up with one of my old posts - you must have them all saved & indexed, I'm flattered. I believe some folks have all of yours tabulated as well. But, as usual, you are way off the mark.

That post was hardly a "screaming buy" recommendation - it was a "comeback" to a specific post in a "discussion.

Here's a much more appropriate example of my advice on Zonagen as an investment.

exchange2000.com

Now - how about a sample of your shilling for a company - how about these few examples of Wexler posts touting CPU?

exchange2000.com

<<One quick recommendation:

Very, very strong (pounding the table and turning backflips) buy on CPU. Retailers in general are loathed by the market right now and everyone is very nervous about the economy. Use this rare opportunity before it goes away.>>

exchange2000.com

<<I believe I suggested buying CPU a few days ago. I can not stress how excited I am about this stock - now trading at a historically low PSR at a time when everyone hates retailers in general - and computer retailers in particular. I believe that a double in this stock is a layup...my only question is can it triple and surpass its old highs. I'm betting it can.>>

exchange2000.com

<<Reiterate VERY strong buy recommendation - CPU.

The stock is dirt cheap. I'm banking on the fact that the temporary indigestion caused by the Computer City purchase is just about over and most (if not all) of the old inventory has been blown out.

CPU is grossly undervalued. I'm certain that insiders feel the same way - that's why they've been buying heavily.>>

AND ON, AND ON, AND ON, ......... these three were ove rjust a few days - there were DOZENS of similar posts -

"a double is a layup"
"so excited I'm turning backflips"
"stock is dirt cheap"
.
.
.

Now THAT'S some good shilling - and quality advice as well - CPU was around $14 when Wexler started pushing it - fell to around $6 - BUT it has rebounded nicely to near $8.

I have a new favorite post for you.

This from the Yeah hooie! thread.

Notice the use of 'we' in the fifth paragraph. A slip? Hmmm?

messages.yahoo.com

I can't say that I agree with all of your language Bill, and I know I've given you grief, but, in this case 'shill' is as tight a definition as comes to mind.
