If Zicam works for the masses as well as it works for the people that I know, it won't matter if GumTech or Edelman did a no-no.

Dan -

Regardless of the "facts" you discover in your investigation of this mess, I think we're still left with a choice between the two scenarios I gave a few days ago. It's either your "worst case" scenario above, or Zicam management screwed up big time. That leaves us with the same questions. If it's the worst case, why should we believe anything GUMM tells shareholders when they were willing to lead AJIC down the primrose path just to get a headline. And if it's a screw-up, how can we expect them to successfully compete against the big drug and consumer products companies (some of the savviest marketers on the planet) when they botch something this simple?

I've only been applying Zicam for about 36 hours, but have to say that I don't think it's helping me yet. Hoping for tomorrow.

That said, as an investment, I may add to my position tomorrow if they take it below 16 again.
