that even a broken clock is right twice a day. Precious is an irritant and if not pumping or bashing is so far off the planet that it takes someone like Rash to put her straight. I would bet my bottom dollar that she has not made ``millions`` as she said off of PTSC. Her take that we should be taking in 200 billion or so is the type of post that shows ignorance and is harmful to the reputation of this board and to any newbie trying to get straight info and a handle on Patriot.

As far as Rash`s ``gang``, what is wrong with purchasing more shares in a stock that you think is undervalued even if you already are long that stock? I have and I am sure others besides Rash have as well. On the other hand there is nothing wrong with taking some off the table when we run up as I did at a buck eighty eight. I only wish I was wise enough to sell all I had then and buy back in a few months later.

If you own stocks then you should know what you own, why you own it and when (if ever) you intend to sell your shares. Ron always says that we should all have our exit points set, and that is great advise but there are other points one must consider when investing.

Have a good reason to buy, know what you own.

Have a point where you want to sell unless circumstances surrounding the company changes.

Have an exit point or percentage regarding how much loss you are willing to take.

And never look back.

Precious and Drebbin to name two posters on this board that makes a ``Rash`` a necessity. I know there are many of us old timers that do not post as much because of the likes of them. We, as I am sure you want intelligent discussion on what is going on with our investment.

Anyway enough rambling and my best to you and yours.
