pitt... "I did so based on the perceived potential of the company". This is the same reason I moved into the stock, AND... I still think that potential is still there.  In fact, some of that potential has already been realized, albeit only a slight fraction of its ultimate potential.

"If I were first looking to take a position now..." I disagree with you somewhat here, because if an investors thoughts and feelings are that the company still has great potential... then the price is surely right at this point.  Yes, I agree with you that there appears to be some level of shenanigans going on, but I believe that is just a distraction, a diversion if you will, to shake lose shares for others to profit on.  When other investors see that this company is headed in the right direction, is not a scam, and has a group of dedicated individuals at the helm... I think the big money will pore in.  As they say, a rising tide lifts all boats (my little dingy included, lol).

I for one would like noting better than to see this PPS take off, but I realize that it may take a little more time.  If nothing significantly negative happens, the minor fluctuation in PPS doesn't bother me... I will ride out the storm.  I think in the end, the dedication and work towards building this company, will win over the shenanigans going on now.  The good news, and forward motion of this company is evident almost daily.  Can't say that about many stocks, especially at this PPS !
