Interesting you should mention the subject of R/S. I've been going over that in my mind for weeks now. It seems to me that anyone trying to seriously build a company would avoid an R/S at all costs as that is easily taken as weakness. Earthworks, after all these years, has finally latched on to two businesses that potentially can make a lot of money (HPR and Z-Force), and IMO, the wisest move of all would be for the company to start buying back shares, a little at at time, and cancelling them to bring down the A/S.
Nearly every company I've traded that had multiple R/S in their history -- are history themselves.
