I agree with your comments, cyberman. In this litigous society, someone always tries to blame someone else for their problems. It doesn't mean that they have a valid case. Millions of people have used Zicam Cold Remedy over the last four years. One person files a product liability suit against Matrixx and Floyd acts as if you should call your broker and immediately liquidate your investment. What a joke. I seriously doubt if the suit has merit, and it will be very difficult for the Plaintiffs to prove that their loss of smell is due to Zicam. Research indicates that some people are susceptible to losing their sense of smell when they have a cold. Other research indicates that zinc gluconate is actually used to treat anosmia, so how could it have caused their anosmia? How does one even prove that they can't smell? Is the jury just going to take her word for it? Anyone who thinks that this lawsuit is going to bail them out of a losing short position is in for a rude awakening. In the unlikely event that Matrixx loses this case, they have adequate product liability insurance according the company's CFO. At any rate, this anosmia talk has been around for several months and the stock has ignored it, for good reason.

By the way, cyberman, I noticed that you have been around Silicon Investor for a long time but are new to this thread. You may not have encountered "TheTruthseeker" before, but it didn't take you long to size him up. Even his moniker is an oxymoron. He can own the thread and post garbage around the clock for all I care. I own the stock. Seems like a fair trade. lol

Regards,

Dan
