hasher: I want to thank you for answering those questions. I'm sure there is considerably more that could be added but I think we all have the picture.
I find it comical as hell that I got my wrist slapped for inadvertantly doing a "free ride" with my broker recently which is a strict "no-no" with the SEC and yet they (the SEC) will permit scum like this to operate what's left of a company and manipulate it to suit himself -- totally at the expense of the shareholders.
I'm going out this AM to buy me a Slinky -- justto see it fall down the stairs.
