Earnest,
When the Contrarians said it was promoters manipulating the price of the stock, the deniers said it was MMs.
When the Contrarians said it was dilution, the deniers said it was fundraising.
When the Contrarians said it was poor management, the deniers said they had "sources" to verify the "character" of the "leaders."
And now, when the facts say it was poor management, unethical and/or illegal actions, and blatant misrepresentations, the deniers say it was the promoters.
It is ALWAYS something else.
Don't let those darned FACTS get in the way.
IMO/FWIW
