Geoff,
I have no illusions of there being a "short squeeze" based on an outstanding short position of 10,022 shares in the month of November, reported in December. As you have implied, the very notion is worthy of a snicker.
Most people who read this board know which posters repeatedly disclose that they are long in this stock. I, for example, have made no secret of my long position, and my desire (and expectation) that the share price will go up. After all, I'm in this for the money.
There are other posters here that I suspect have no position, but are very long on opinions and advice, though most deny the later. The existence of a documented short position, however modest, reveals that at least someone also has a desire that the share price decline. I have no clue if the person(s) holding that short position (and hoping for a further decline in the share price) is a poster on this board, or even reads this board.
Certainly, not everyone discloses their motivation for posting what they post, whether positive or negative.
Still long and with high expectations,
-zties
