Regarding dilution -- I think they are so irritated at the way the traders arena treats them and manipulates the stock, that they are doing what is necessary to get to the OTC. They, I believe, think that will both answer all the important questions for legitimate shareholders and finally end most of the pink sheet circus it has become. That does not excuse the fact that they set up this scenario, however, I think they were faced with no alternatives at the time. All that said, the management is choosing to basically ignore the needs you mention for real investors because they do not want to offer the traders ANYTHING to help them in the least. Right now, they are operating on the "end justifies the means" totally. As you said, that will keep some legitimate and thorough investors like yourself out in the interim, but I honestly think they know they had to "deal with the devil" to keep things moving in the proper direction, they believe they are doing everything necessary to correct the problems created, and they have been bombarded so much by rude and abusive penny stock traders that they refuse to give them anything they want. It may give off a "pungent" odor currently, but if this company "has the goods" like I suspect in the one remaining gigantic, never-ending business with ZERO branding up to this point in a long history, and they are going to be instrumental in bringing about sweeping changes to the industry that will not only be good for the consumer, great for the funeral industry, and terrific for ETIM, then the pain shareholders have suffered recently will long be forgotten. The Vatican has been around for a few years, eh, and have never consented to branding anything. The AKC has been around a fair piece. MLB is a pretty legitimate partner, and I'll bet many more are to come shortly.

If one is a pure trader and zero investor, as most who would buy a stock this low are, then the classic "red flags" will motivate them to do just what they have to this company. I'm banking on their complete tunnel vision and short-sighted view to investing to make them blind to the actual reasons behind what has been happening and how the company is positioning themselves and their current actions or lack of actions the traders bellyache over. We should soon see just how much Clint, Nick, and company have in the intelligence department, the company and shareholder loyalty department, and the business department. I'm banking that my observations will not be misplaced, but then, I'm an investor who thinks things completely differently than a penny trader. To quote from one of my favorite films -- "The Battle of Wits has begun. Its ends when you decide and we both drink and find out who is right, and who is dead." I am in the camp that Clint and Nick and I and a few others will be right, and the traders will be dead -- or at least moved on to what is their more typical fair.
