Alex-
I researched the short interest a little further and found:
(Source WSJ - IE)
Short 12/13 Short 1/15 Short 2/14 Average Daily Vol
1,444,881 1,461,326 1,404,883 313,689

RSYS peaked at about 68 on 1/21/97. However notice that major short
positions were already in place back on 12/13/96. I think the shorts
probably knew things pertaining to the SEC investigation would surface
soon (maybe the shorts even helped them surface). Since the stock has
tanked, the short interest has actually decreased slightly.

To summarize, I think the SEC investigation is the reason for the high
short interest.

Comments anyone,
Don
