Uh...no...
The best and most logical conclusion that doesn't involve intellectual dishonesty is the they simply didn't pay it. That is the most logical conclusion...not some conterfeit shares and big conspiracy from the naked short sellers...you know, it's been a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time since we've heard from the company on this...at what point has it simply taken too long, and their silence is interpreted for what I think it truly is: they scammed investors and you're making excuses for them? Heck, I'd love to have investors like you if I ran a penny-scam. I could do whatever I wanted and you'd make up the stories to cover for me!
Wow, just read they cancelled the dividend...so much for "resolving the fully-funded dividend over the next few days." This definitely qualifies as outright fraud, IMHO.
