You bashed this stock to try for cheap shares, then when you bought some and you became a cheerleader, LOL. As to why some have been away, IT"S CHRISTMAS", some people have things to do around this time of year! I am long and still hold lots of shares! I did sell a small amount for fun money, that does not take away from how I feel about this stock. I have been in since last Jan., I saw nothing wrong with selling a few shares to go skiing!
