.If you value JSB's input(which I do), and you know that he has become much more reluctant to offer his views, do you actually think an extremely sarcastic post regarding his sources serves any positive purpose toward him opening up to this forum?
It is neither 'frustration' nor 'extremely sarcastic'. Rather, I sit back and laugh at this whole situation, a laugh with many meanings. If you can step back far enough and if you know your losses will eventually turn around, then you should be laughing at the ridiculous valuations being put on the stock price. I laugh at the thought of being able to acquire shares at this price. I'm laughing at the longs who have trust in KL yet still feel they must come to his defense on a daily basis. I laugh at shorts who have no ammunition to play yet they post ad nauseum the same BS on an hourly basis. Were it not for the insightful informative posts from our stalwarts like ID and Gare and (yes) JSB that keep things on a more level, informative, and serious tone, I'd buy my shares in the $4's, laugh all the way to the bank, and then take off for 4-5 months and come back and get primed for the January trial.
So Jake, I value JSB's input as much as the next person (who actually does) -- heck I even laid out money on his "big bang" coming. But I also know that JSB is not going to reveal in public (nor would I ask him in private) who his source is. Therefore, I thought I would provide a humorous response for him as if I were in his shoes. Think about it -- what does a person say when asked by a reporter to reveal a source? Some would give an answer like mine -- so far-fetched that it exudes incredulity, provides a laugh and tells the person asking:
I'm not telling. In short, Jake --
IT WAS A JOKE!
