I started this mess by going after a post by Bestofgoodbuys and then bailed for the day after my reply to the Franz post. I think everyone had their chance to vent and that is a good thing. It confirms we are like every other disfunctional family LOL...Seriously, we all have reasons to be upset. All of us have seen 30% of our valuation go up in smoke over the last 10 weeks. We have been on an adreline rush for some time...some since December 2006, myself since September 07 and others more recently. All of us are craving the next hit of adrenaline and like any junkies are suffering right now and this creates an opportunity for some serious head banging.

Paul, you may be someone who invested more than you should of, or borrowed the funds, or your wife is nagging you about this investment (I have heard about NOT by my wife in a huge way in the last 2 months-that is my biggest headache) or you had expectations (like most of us) that this stock would pop much faster or what ever your situation is that makes this delay harder on you than some of us. We can sympatize with you for this. You are not alone I can guarantee you that. The delays here have caused many to suffer and I do not mean to belittle this. However, when you vent and say the longs are selling, you are creating a situation where people, already near the edge may pull the trigger and sell and the absolute worse time. The longs including myself are holding steady. Many accuse me of being too optimistic and that is my biggest fault but I also enjoy life tremendously because of this outlook. My second biggest fault would be to be too honest. I have received many PMs saying that it was an error for me to admit selling and that I should not of said this. Well, I did and I would do it again because that is who I am. I repeat for the record that I have rebought my same level of shares as I did before I sold.

I do get protective of my investment when I believe my DD is correct and will not hesitate to signal something that I believe is wrong. In your case Paul, if I made a mistake, I apologize. My recommendation to you is to weight your words more carefully next time and I will try to do the same. Lets get over this for the benefit of the whole board.

To all a good night and I hope a news release is upon us this week before we all end up on prozac!!
