Huck....I'm not familiar with Alliance. I'm guessing they are a market maker? At first I gave it a 50/50 shot that he slipped up in one of his posts because then he disappeared for a while, but now to come back bragging, makes no sense. You are right though, for him to be shorted around a penny would mean to do so in December of '01, and why would he just now show up? I swear, just about everyone on that board has a secret agenda!
