the 10k and, chiefly, manu's letter oozed the pathos & charisma of a true thespian. his letter certainly rallied those who keep up with MDNT daily (a lot more than just us, imo) and probably contributed to some reticence to invest here short-term (or immediately thereafter publicity is released) given today's nosedive. all things considered, though, I suppose it was somewhat predictable.. Hard as it may be to do so after days like these -- and a few may be ahead -- we all need to consider the swath and length of the project at hand, and not waver.
