About obtaining shares in Cert form:

I know this week some have been saying "The cert drive didn't do any good!" I think that's a very short-sited statement, and I'm of the opinion that it's the same people who have all along claimed to be long but are actually just waiting for the opportunity to flip, or try to get a quicker profit, and who complain to the extent of saying HMGP/Hemi are completely horrible (not saying there's nothing to be disgruntled about... just disagreeing with statements indicating Hemi is worthless or phoney)

I myself have always been skeptical when it comes to the cert drives, that they would cause some sort of run in the more immediate sense. I didn't expect an immediate run from it the first drive, and I didn't expect an immediate run from it recently.

BUT (big but) that is not to say that the cert drives will be innefective. I believe that we should all continue to seek as many of our shares in certificate form as we can stand.
Right now the MMs seem to still be comfortable with selling some air shares. While they do, the certs will continue to APPEAR to not be having the desired effect...
But if we continue to DEMAND certs for our shares, it is inevitable that it will have the desired effect. It will take a trigger. It will take a catalyst... but it WILL occur eventually.

I strongly urge shareholders who do not have intentions of selling sooner rather than later (even partial positions) to continue to demand their shares in physical certificates.
This will eventually lead to a tipping point. Either a bigger buyer will come along, or some entity will be trying to work a special deal through a broker to pick up a large block, or Keith will come through with critical information at the right strategic time.... and that will trigger the search for real shares. When someone goes looking for shares in quantity, and trying to make a deal that will bring in more money for the broker... it will trigger. And when those real shares are not there... BAMMO... it's on!
I know it's getting old to hear, but patience is still the thing we need. We've got to allow time for effects to be felt. It's so easy for us to trade shares now... so quick. But that doesn't mean the effects of it, or the industry (trading industry or oil industry... take your pick) does not move fast.

Again, I strongly urge the continued demands for certificates. It may not make for an immediate run, but it WILL DEFINITELY drive the price exponentially higher once it is triggered.
I'm not talking 2 or 3 years from now either... I'm just not referring to the immediate future either. But it can't go on indefinitely. IT WILL have the desired effect.

DEMAND YOUR CERTS!!!
