Subject: (s7-23-03) naked shorts and market makers gotta go.

It would be nice to see a fixed limit on short selling
on otc stocks.  There needs to be a max on short
selling look at what the naked shorts and market
makers are doing to stocks like CMKM forcing the
company to change its name to give shareholders a
chance to have some value buy forcing the shorts and
market makers to cover.  Also, it takes money to do
business and the market makers which are the same as
naked shorts need to get the boot.
