Selling the patent would be the most expedient method perhaps to get SH money back out; but, Chan isn't about to do that. I think we have 'hoped' for the past two years as price has dropped that Chan was going to pull a 'rabbit out of a hat' and price would soar...and we'd all go home happy. But, it's not looking promising at this juncture that that will happen.... As someone once said that in trading, "Hope" is not a winning strategy.
