Ray, your thoughts show that you are simple-minded

Ray, your thoughts show that you are simple-minded, or at least have the greatest of skill at thinking along very straight lines.

Its far more likely that there is a lot of interest in this stock, but that no one is buying because its obvious that the manipulation will continue to drive the stock down. The only thing that will break the manipulators (or in other words, cause the bottoming out of this artificially created downward trend line) is if the company achieves sustainable profitability or news of partnership/buyout.

If a buyout, then too bad so sad for people who have not taken a position. Otherwise, most prudent investors, new and existing, will choose to wait for the "bottom". Others, like myself, who are ardent supporters of the Company and its management, will continue to invest as funds permit because we have the utmost confidence that management will find a way to break thru given its history of accomplishments under this most vicious of conditions of doing business.
