I.N.: Interesting. Interesting? Yup, that a speculation without dint of one commercial product(as yet), has managed to create ~10K postings on this thread alone. The postings have just about entirely fallen into two categories. The bullish longs with our day in and day out "it's around the corner" vision tied to articulate commentary more than the equal of those self-style pundits of the "know" who view VLNC as ripe for their negativists fantasies. Then there are the naysayers(probably composed of shorties seeing an opportunity) who seem to have latched on to VLNC as a speculative short, and who with equal fervor take exception to the bulls gamble. And is some sort of altruistic "third party" also privy to this game? Well......nah. And I use myself as a frame of reference. I waste zero time in this game following items I'm not somehow interested in. I operate under the assumption that all stock market "gamesters/threadsters" do the same. It's all about profit, ain't it?

Soooooo, it's a matter of self-interest. No crime in that from my way of thinking. No "right" thinking adult spends time following, or "chatting up" for hours, a thread out of some sort of earnest fascination or morbid interest in which the "chatting up" is the sole source of gratification. Trust me(heh), vested interest reigns supreme. And this is particularly true of this object of interest, VLNC, which clearly has become the "queen bee" of the speculation crowd, just on number of postings alone. Bottom Line? Folks can pontificate, espouse and assume such stances as they like. We all be gambling here on either the success, or the failure, of the mother honey bee. And if threadsters here take on a stance of "What....whooo, MEEEEEE????" with regard to this commentary, then all I can say is ;-). Now......about those p.o.'s.
