Ah, Peter J—back from the sidelines, I see. I’d almost forgotten about your contribution to shareholder success. Oh wait... there wasn’t one.
But let’s address your so-called “concerns”:
---
1. Proof of Shorts? It’s in the Market Behavior
You’re asking for proof of shorts? After all these years? The trading patterns speak for themselves. Price suppression, microscopic volume, and managed price ceilings over extended periods aren’t the hallmarks of a healthy, freely traded market.
And while I wouldn’t expect someone who never contributed a dime toward real DD to recognize that, those of us who’ve done the work know exactly what’s happening.

2. The “Altruist Gang”?
You finally realize that these so-called “altruistic” posters—the shorts masquerading as concerned investors—aren’t here for the good of the world. Took you long enough.
They’ve played you, Peter J. And now, after years of denial, you’re waking up to the reality that shorts exist. Too bad you’re still about 20 years behind the rest of us.

3. Fairy Tales?
Fairy tales? Funny how everything I’ve said about shorts, the backstop, and the impending squeeze has been consistent.
You know what’s NOT a fairy tale? Shell and Petrobras drilling in Block 10 in July—next to Block 4.
And when the dust settles, you’ll be standing there, scratching your head, wondering how you missed it. Again.

4. Kicked Out for Being a Disruption
Let’s not rewrite history, Peter J. You didn’t leave the group—you were kicked out.
Why? Because instead of contributing anything of value, you disrupted the group, sowed division, and dragged down the collective effort. And when the stakes got high, you were shown the door—for good reason.
Real shareholders work toward success. You, on the other hand, were dead weight.

5. Proof Is Coming—But You Won’t Need It
Proof is coming, Peter J. And when it arrives, you won’t need me to show it to you.
Shell’s moves will speak louder than anything I could ever say. The truth has a funny way of surfacing when the stakes are high—and those who stayed the course will reap the rewards.

Final Thought:
Peter J, you’re not late to the party—you’re standing outside, watching through the window. And when the real celebration begins, you’ll be left wondering how you missed it all… again.
