Yes, I bailed some time ago, approx $8 5/8ths. I now hold a grand total of 450 shares in one of my IRAs at $7.50 cost. The stock has been "telling" us that something is amiss. It will interest me to find out how (or if) they can screw up a "free lunch". I suspect that eventually they will grow but why they can't right now is beyond me. Any ideas regarding what the problem is? why they are having problems getting profits/share to grow? Sales certainly are growing. Charly implies that it is: training, setup expenses, etc. I can't look over their shoulder very well to see what the problem is. Promises by Keely will certainly misfire, and it will turn into a "show-me" stock if he can't deliver very soon. too bad if so, it seems like he should be able to grow with the industry.
