If you're one of the insider "us," all is good, a

I for one am glad that you understand that. Actually there are three groups:
1. the share price is everything, it is the only thing crowd, the group showing the most growth
2. the Berman derangement syndrome group, some of whom are also in the share price group, the group that believes the CEO is the root of all evil in the world
3. the group that understands that companies do not become blue chip stocks overnight and looks for company progress, maturity and growth. Unfortunately this group is currently being overwhelmed by the "iHub" sentiment and the group grows smaller by the day. Worse there are people who lurk in this group because it is a good place to start a conspiracy theory or two, so this group may actually be smaller then people may think
This message board used to be a haven, then it went quiet for the most part, but when nonseq became a share price is everything, the only thing guy, this board has become a microcosm of the iHub board and the only real discussion, and it pains me to say this, occurs on the Yahoo board. Sad but true.
This board used to have a code. The code went like this ... no personal attacks, if you had bad things to say, don't say it, go somewhere else. No more. I am retired and have a lot of time, but I venture to say that my PM gets more work from people that used to post on this message board then the board does itself these days. And I am not the cause of it. I am a symptom of it. And that is bad and makes the board look unmanageable, like iHub.
Finally, one last thing. For the most part people who trade stocks know very little or anything at all about how companies actually operate. Many posters don't care to learn and would rather play the rumor and innuendo games. But there are some who previously did not understand, and for example never read a quarterly or annual report in their lives. A few have seen the light. For example I know a broker who posts on this board and it pains me to say that this fellow never read a quarterly report and was ready to engage in rumor and innuendo and now he does read reports and understands the pressures small companies operate under and also understands that in business some things work out and some things do not. Unfortunately this poster now only posts on the Yahoo board when it comes to DECN.
Cults on a message board.... LOLOL.
