Very well. Lets us leave it. I don't believe the "State" Federal Attorney's or anyone esle is eyeing this case for prosecution. *s* It is interesting in some ways. I believe it was very clever and laced with wit and lilting humor. However, it has become so much bigger than life that it has the affect of diluting the purpose. Polarizing parties and the like. My personal belief is that Business Wire had some minimal cause for concern. However, I believe that they were "pumped up" hehe themselves by some very unhappy and acidic pumper posters from the junkyard of "crashed BB stocks". Always attempting to shoot the messenger rather than confront the companies that cast such devine illusions. I would wager that BW would love to be able to go back to start and laugh along and point out the need to carefully research a company.
