Just a little math --

Float = 15.5M
Short Interest ~ 4M (My guess)
Daily volume ~ 400,000

Assumming 2/3 of the trades are between MM's that makes about
133,333 trades between investors per day.

Of the actively traded shares 26% have been shorted.
Given 133,333 shares traded per day and short interest of 4M,
It would take shorts 30 days to cover. I like these numbers :o)
