celt, you're not kidding...the thing that concerns me about the yahoo board is that most small retail investors seem to stop there first. all they see now is bash/garbage......i hate to say it but this new short technique on the yahoo board worked....a whole lot of kry is small retail and i know folks will disagree but i believe the BS that occurs on yahoo is probably costing us 3-4% in PPS.....on the other hand it wont affect me much because i'm in this thing for the super long haul and if the story plays out the way i think it will (permit/buyout/production/etc) the boards will not make any difference. unfortunate that the internet is going the way of all other media sources (mis/disinformation and spin) but i guess thats the beast........
