Hey Sinbob: I agree with that there is a certain amount of crookedness going on like naked shorting in some stocks, but the good news is that this crooked game can be played by the rest of us legally by buying shares at a ridiculously lower price. This is what I've learned from Ted Butler about the whole silver manipulation by JP Morgan and I've made a lot of money legallly buying low on that crime in action. Regarding SFMI, I've added 500k shares since the smackdown began which I wouldn't have done at 25 cents. I believe this is what Pic does too. It's only sad for the few folks I brought in at 20 cents and they don't feel financially or emotionally able to continue to add to their share inventory so they just have to look the other way and hold on to be bailed out! Just my thoughts! Khaki
