The above is an excellent point.
For you investors who are faithful followers of PTOI and who have near infinite patience, you have to see that PTOI has failed on every single front for almost eight years...on production, on processor sales, on joint ventures, on licensing, etc.... Maybe for ten years if you count pre-shell. You have to suspect that at least some of the share price drop from $7 down to $0.03 was due to the company having absolutely no success on any front.
Even if any of you firmly believe that market makers, naked shorts and other people are responsible for driving the price down, you have to admit that PTOI's lack of any results whatsoever for the better part of a decade at least contributed to PTOI's current share price.
Around eight years ago, founder Mr. Bordynuik made outlandish claims of producing diesel and naphtha at 90+% margins and those claims were simply not true. Mr. Bordynuik was charismatic enough to get investors to believe he was an honest man and when investors believed him, they drove up the share price to $7. Over time as it became evident that the claims were fake and as investors started to consider whether there was ever really any value at all, that's what drove the year over year declines in the share price. Your enemy isn't short sellers or market makers--it's the deception and the artifice which originate from PTOI itself.
