Sorry bud, it's well known retail can't short pennies.

How many SRGE shorts are going to loose their house on this?

You have been listening to tob.

Individuals shorting sub-pennys doesn't happen - or if the do it is being very short sighted.

The average investor can't or it is extremely difficult to short a penny stock - the margin requirements are just cost prohibitive. You have to have $2.50 margin per share to short a stock under $2.50.

If you want to short 500,000 shares of a stock at $0.004, you have to have $1,250,000 in your account, and 500,000 shares at $0.004 is only $2000.

The good thing is you won't get a margin call unless it gets over $2.50.

So you might want to re-think your post - and all the 1000's of posts about shorty is toast is complete nonsense.
