OK, here goes -- I will start the discussion:
It begins with learning a little bit about who Even is, not in a personal (good guy/bad guy) capacity, but in terms of his possible relationship to the company or its alleged opponents. I have already been through this grueling process, and it has been summarily decided that I am a shill. Now it's it's E's turn. He was EXTREMELY quick to defend Mark Lefkowitz. I always thought that was odd....in fact, the whole situation is odd, for at least four reasons:
1. Why were we threatened with libel and slander suits for publicly mentioning Mark's name in connection with illegal shorting activities? Why bother if it's not true?
2. What about the public claim that Mark shorted the S8s issued by Millagro? That was never refuted either. From what I have read, the cancelled S8s were the birth of this allegedly enormous short position. Such an inflammatory claim...yet no one has ever said this isn't true.
3. If Mark and/or Compass is not involved in this "deal," why hasn't Mark objected to the public mention of his name in connection with the short position on TLND? Compass appears to be a fairly well-known financing organization...with very deep pockets. They operate several private and publicly traded funds. If I were Mark, I would have filed cease and desist orders against the half-dozen or so posters who repeatedly mentioned his name both here and on RB. It's very bad for business, IMO.
4. According to SHO, there IS a short position on this stock. Since it is not possible for the average investor to legally short a penny stock, this short position has been created through orders filed directly with the MMs--the ONLY peeps allowed to sell naked shares. Someone with connections in high places is shorting the stock, IMO. And as yet, I've heard no denials coming from the direction of 40 Wall.
