Can Torvecian or anyone explain to me

why someone would buy a large block of this stock above the ask? I do not get it. Anyone who has followed this stock knows the MMs keep their thumb on the bid/ask, so you could buy in increments all day and not fear in the slightest that you would drive your price way up. Only explanation I see is urgency; but then if something is about to happen you got insider trading charges against you. Unless you think you could beat that. Still I do not expect a big break-out just because of this buy. This has in fact happened before with no such. So...what's the deal?
