<<I am having trouble figuring whether you are dismissing this insider
sale as a matter of routine or whether you truly feel the insider sales
are something that is a pre-cursor of much worse things to come.>>

Insider sales can occur for many reasons both positive and negative.
On the positive side, I listed one - an exec building a house after
hiring on, relocating or just because they want to. Other positive
reasons include retirement, college or if you will need money in the
future but might soon be restricted due to merger, etc. I think
you can't attach much significance to these - and especially not
all negative significance.

<<And what do you make of the dwindling volume and stagnant stock
price on such low volume??>>

The calm before the storm? The sellers have sold, the buyers haven't
returned yet and the shorts are holding (for now). You don't see the
price plunging, do you? When volume returns, the move will be UP.
