Thanks flavius... Answer to 160M shares... There are three things that a company can do to raise the pps. The first - by reducing the number of shares through a buy back. The second - by r/s (perish the thought.) The third - increasing revenue. Only the second and third are options for Calypte. (Not enough money for the first option.) I think at this point in time the company is focusing only on the third option. sower
