Texas Tech, Count me in on this one, I'll do anything I can to promote an attorney firm. I have decided to mortgage the farm once again and will be sending the proceeds to the referrenced attorney firm. I certainly appreciate the tip on this one. Oh, of course your not, but I must ask... Are you affiliated with that firm?
I hope we prevail, God bless.

I am not a promoter, but a fair and level playing field is not so much depending on elimination of naked shorting, but on immediate reporting on each trade (and daily summary) of short trades. When you short a stock it is so entered in the system data base, no reason such trades should not me marked as such and no reason that the short position be available only once a month, sometimes six weeks late. Specialists and market makers have that information, and the public should as well.

TexasTech,
In light of your Texas nick here I must ask, are you associated with the John O'Quinn law firm and part of the campaign to eliminate short selling of all kind while disseminating misinformation that would make 'naked short selling' the boogey man that is responsible for every down tick in every stock?
Are you aware that the list of companies that is backing that campaign both financially and with their pr efforts includes some of the most egregious abusers of 'floorless financing' and 'leaky floor' financing? (credit to Dr. Hed for 'leaky floor' term although I may have butchered his original appellation).
I suggest you review the list of companies that are actively promoting this campaign. In my opinion they do not pass the smell test.
Despite all of that, Reg SHO is in place, the politicians in Washington (with little or no real market knowledge) have been swayed by Mr. O'Quinn's arguments on your behalf and your 'naked short selling' red herring has been removed.
So what is the next excuse you will invent to explain the disastrous results that we see from insiders and toxic financiers dumping their limitless shares into orchestrated pumps directed at less knowledgeable shareholders?

God Bless (and I mean that sincerely)
but please rethink this misdirected bile that does nothing to further the cause of a fair and open market for securities to the general public

regards,
Mercur
