Wow strat0477, thanks for posting that-- you hit the nail on the head IMHO... I said it a little differently June 1:
"... I think this highlights the legitimacy of a company and its potential, pitted against a liquidity generating promotion campaign. Given historical records, the odds are the latter will be abused and the eventual result will be either slow bleeding drift or impatient seller(s) steeper decline ..."

Jason has tapped out all his allowable sells in 2 days (via Rule 144). In addition he "gifts" 2,100,000 shares which I would assume were, or are still, in play here as well.
Massive volume increase that "dies on the table" -- pps is a mere 1 cent higher than the day before the spike... and worse yet, all the work to "promote" and now over 50% of the shares bought during the promotion are in the red :-(
But Jason doubles his money (and such a small amount to realize too considering the "price" the non-informed [non-front-loading] retail shareholder paid :-( )
