Ovidius,
You need to read through the PR's a bit more. Keep in mind, when you are a small company like NNVC and get in bed with the big boys, they take control, espically on PR related issues. Dont you think Dr. S would put more in the PR if he could. The big Pharma has probably had 15 lawyers scrub that PR piece for the past several weeks before letting NNVC send it out. My guess is that the Pharma has seen all of the data from past performance and they want the drug. They have their standard DD and need another round of testing just to be 100% sure that the stuff works (before they put their name on it). Note that the tests are being done by a thrid party lab. Im sure this is because Dr. S is smart enough not to give away the secret sauce to a large pharma that could take it and use it and then we have to battle them in pattent court. So, my guess is that if the tests come back negative and the stuff does not work, the big pharma feels like they can walk away and no one will ever know that their name was associated with NNVC, or, the stuff works (the same way that is has been working for the past 2+ years, they announce the partnerhsip or whatever relationship they strike up and the stock is off to the races. (I also dont think Dr. S would be giving them the drug to test if it did not work, so i think the risk is minimal or none at all). So Ovidius, my suggestion is that you stop the negative comments and wait another few months until the tests come back from the 3rd patry lab. If they come back negative and there is no deal, I will be the biggest negative cheerleader along with you. If they come back positive and there is a deal, the stock shoots up and we are all happy. 2-3 month will go by very fast and if you are investing in stocks like this, one would assume that you have enough net worth live for at least a few more months with the stock hovering between $0.50-$0.80. This is a long term play my friend, and only available for those with the stomach to wait it out. Who knows, there are a lot of others out there (including me) who may really see this as a positive PR and start buying at 9:30 am EST, pusing the SP higher.
And so for those who care, this is all IIIIIIMMMMMMMMHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOO
