John, <<Paul, Rich, and others have speculated on where the large volume of selling has come from recently, maybe you could come up with a plausible hypothesis about where all the buying is coming from.>>

john, I could come up with several plausible hypotheses. You might not like some of them:-) Let's go through a few.

First, certainly today illustrated consistent buying throughout the day. No doubt about it. However, there were very few large blocks bought. Almost nothing over 5,000 shares. Some guesses:

1. Word is getting out that VLNC has finally solved its problems and buying was for good fundamental reasons.

2. Momentum players saw VLNC break through resistance at $6.50.

3. The same people who drove the price up a year ago to $11 during the hype spike.

4. Which possibly could be Castle Creek and friends after covering in the $4s and $5s now driving the price up to begin a new round of profitable shorting.

Take your pick. Cause I certainly don't know:-)
