OT: This is how the basher scam works..I know these guys"From: N. Dixon Read Replies
"inching up" is just another short who is losing his shirt on a thinly traded tightly held security - REFR. Manuel Asensio was hired to extort shares from the company to cover his "friend's" short position. The company refused and the shorts launched a campaign starting in May of 2001.
Now they are STUCK w/almost 1 million shares to cover and some already have indictments and convictions.
There are more coming.

You may wonder who to believe in the debate between bashers and longs on this board. Here's your choice:
a) You can believe the paid liars on this board who have wasted 8 years of their lives trying (but failing) to ruin REFR. If so, your belief will have to be based on their immoral and illegal claim that REFR/SPD is a "scam", supported only by a proven criminal stock manipulator whose license was revoked or,
(b)You can believe the R&D, Engineering, Manufacturing, Marketing and Sales staff of some the biggest and most successful global companies who have licensed SPD technology and are investing their own resources to bring it to market. These companies include duPont, Air Products, Hitachi, DaiNippon, NSG, Pilkington, St.Gobain, Isoclima and many others. Here your belief will have to be based on a patent estate of more than 400 patents, numerous awards for SPD smart glass technology, and customers in every major automotive and aerospace company as well as dozens of others in marine, architectural, residential and industrial markets.
Make your own investment decisions but be sure that you read the announcement several weeks ago from Isoclima in which they announce the successful introduction of next generation SPD film. This announcement was a screaming warning to anyone stupid enough to still be short. There's a whole lot of covering going on, but the bashers would sure like you to take their hairball from them so that they can move on to try to ruin some other company. That's why they are here screeching, hooting and howling louder than ever all day and night.
sounds a bit familiar...especially the last line
