First of all, thank you for the civil discussion.

First of all, thank you for the civil discussion. That's fairly rare here.

I also agree with your logic--if we can't trust FINRA or NASDAQ short data then nobody has any proof whether or not there's a large abusive short position. I believe the FINRA data are sound showing there is no abusive naked short position and you believe the data are corrupt. That's fair.

As far as the founder, yes, he is gone. However over eight years after inception, PTOI's future success or failure still depends on his technology. The founder's technology is supposedly wildly profitable either because of the secret catalyst he found or because of his amazing skill in the development of the processor, depending on which story of his you want to believe...yet the fraud charges might signal that he also lied about the process.

So is Mr. Heddle honest and therefore would have vetted out the founder's technology for investors so they can now completely trust that the technology is valuable?? To me, Mr. Heddle appears anything but honest.

If you are skeptical about FINRA data, wouldn't it also be healthy to be skeptical about a get-rich-quick story written by someone who cooked the company's books and conspired with an auditor to sign off on the fake accounting??

Yes, I understand your penny stock also is the real deal, created with the inventiveness of Edison and destined to be the next Microsoft. Yes, I understand that the delays are also only because your company is making their product and/or technology even more revolutionary.
