New to me is that Maslow is chairman and president of this new company...Looks like they are doing more than shelving Tammarack...
Also depending on how many shares they have, PJTV's Book Value could
rise dramatically due to any share gain in MHTX...
They have already gotten 1 million in cash from transaction...
PJTV earnings or sales would be nice to hear...
