Thanks for posting the update. In regard to the "making money on shipping," do you recall how he was making the statement. If my memory serves me correctly the government frowns on inflated costs buried in the category of shipping. I believe some people got a little more room by calling it "shipping and handling" but it's still a very sensitive area. As importantly, it is a little concerning to think of the company looking to the shipping of product for additional profit. Or was he talking about coordinating a shipping service of some type.

All that being said I admit I do not currently have a position in ONSL (I have had a position twice in the last few weeks and fortunately made a reasonable gain.) I am watching it very closely
and may take another position if it stabilizes. Since its metoic climb to over $100 and rapid retreat I've become very cautious.

Again, thanks for posting what you saw.

<EDITED AFTER POSTED> You don't have to reply, I just caught up to your last post about what was said.
