John, Glad to see some one over here in the cave with me. I was told to go back to my cave by a faction in Yahoo when I mentioned MKTY and the dirty word "fool cell"..I know fuels cells are a way off in time re auto engines, but, never-the-less thought they were an interesting investment while waiting for OE to reveal some "secrets"..I wish our state department could keep secrets as well as Orbital. I bought MKTY at 16.00 and am still holding. I bought PLUG at 17.00, sold enough to cover investment and put the balance away long term. SATC was part of that deal, bought at 8.00 and am holding all.....Fritz told me this is all smoke and mirrors and that OE was a real stock !! I believe in the product, sold 90% of my OE after Death Spiral debacle. I will be glad to buy back in volume at higher prices,if need be, provided some changes are made in management. I don't want to be part of a company where shareholders urge each other to do PR which the company seems to be unable to do. There is a tremendous "green" movement going on throughout the world and the company ( as far as I can see ) has made no effort to cultivate any meaningful contacts in the field of political clout or economic influence. The thought occurred to me:::Australia has summer when we have winter, the flush of the toilet goes in the opposite direction... could it be that a price movement of thirty to two dollars is an acceptable chart ??? Turned upside down, it looks beautiful !!! I give management an A+ in acheiving the " Peter Principle" in record time. They might be world class engineers,no argument, but they need a CEO with vision and enterprise. So, I will stay here in my SI cave....and watch news, price and volume action, possible change in top management. If anyone here wants to throw brickbats or flame..I am ready. PS....Does anyone know, at this late date, what entities bought the Broken Hill Block...or is this still " a secret "......nysebob
