i'm not a lawyer .. and without taking the time to review specifics a year later
i'm not sure exactly when this investigation was *started* ..
from memory
i remember reading in various docs a comment quoted re: the stop in tx in feb 2007 with a time frame given *then* of an investigation ongoing for the previous 9 months .. which if true .. would take the time fame back to may/june 2006
but to me it's highly doubtful (if that is indeed the case) that those who were the subject of said investigation were even aware of it then

like others .. i'm just waiting to see if this widens to other co.s and individuals
i have a particular interest in one co. that has 2 of the individuals charged *posting* in the time period acknowledged specifically late 2006 .. very early 2007 and a phone call made by one to an investor re: comments of pr's and potential price movement
