Thanks for your candid answer. I hear ya, every bit. My struggle is to go for the R/S, which I think we need, But WITHOUT allowing the A/S currently proposed. Then hit Plan B, which is buckle down to achieve profits. Unless, we are able to make an acquisition without the A/S, in which case I'm for that measure (but likely not the case, IDK)
Unfortunately, by voting Yes, to the R/S, I give the A/S a chance to live, so I'm in a quandry there hoping for more info soon.
As for Matt, he is a good guy to the best of my judgement, privy to more than we know. I like him as a friend and a leader, but not every day. He knows this, I'm sure he has thick skin for just such a circumstance. lol.
Never-the-less, to answer your question, I think accumulation by someone started near the day the R/S was announced, that was/is likely part of the arrangement, IMO.
To match your story, I have a friend I asked to get in at .004, he looked over the numbers for a few weeks, came and read the boards and he denied to invest. I don't like that I look wrong up to this point, but if Q2 gets here and we're not out of the .002's, I will admit the problems and seriously have to get out (80% of what's left) and move money somewhere else.
Have a great weekend.
