I really gotta stop writing so fast. Let's try that again, and see if we
can wring actual content out of it, shall we? :-) I should have said:

"During the internet stock bubble, his investors, self-described
"Wave-oids", would haunt the investor web-chats and shout down anyone who
talked about Wave's actual lack of revenue as a "short", trying to kill the
Next Big Thing in Entertainment Technology."

There. That's better. Sort of.

Cheers,
