I'll jump in as Porter Scamberry is an old "buddy" of mine. He once called me a "prick" on an on line forum and has been known to threaten to sue posters who call him on some of his nonsense. He is also under indictment by the SEC in the Utah Federal court and I read the indictment which is public. Seems the Feds are a little upset at his relentless and often inaccurate hyping and pumping. He pumped vaxgen which fell as flat on its face as is possible, ISIS which also had a perfect failure with affinitak, then RGEN and a bunch more, I don't really keep track.

What Porter does is simply make a lot of calls of whatever is trendy and in the news. Then a year or two later he trumpets his successes and just try to find his many failures. The company he's pumping in the blurb is IDBE. This might be an OK company. My perception is a little colored because I know one of their chief scientists and the guy should be in jail.
