dandaman53,  look at the volume lately vs the OS; 6mm is a high day.  Mostly red days and some days we get more green.  IMO there is ongoing shorting and not all selling due to message boards.  All the bashers accomplish is negative sentiment  so some "retailer newbie" sells their whopping 100k shares and the shorters get the down tick without the need to manipulate with a paint job or MM games. I'm not as arrogant to think that whatever I write on a message board effects a stock positively or negatively.  If that's the case then why can't longs be as good at pumping as shorts are at bashing?  Answer:  Because TECO hasn't provided the pumping material "YET" and it's easier to cause fear, uncertainty and doubt in human nature than it is to instill hope.  IMO big money investors will get to the truth via management and filings and traveling to headquarters and not from me or another long posting "the truth" about poor performance  or the lies spread by the bashers on Iflub.  I could careless about shareholder sentiment at this point  just because someone might otherwise step in and buy  a whopping 100k shares.  We need real buyers of 2mm+ caliber or higher with the current AS/OS and ongoing attacks.   What will attract 2mm share buyers i.e. people with $20k at a time who want to invest in a start  up oil company?  IMO it's performance!
