WSTL is another one that goes sub $10 and soon. All the makeup in the world (read bondo) cannot help this pig. Crappy gross margins (getting worse as they dempahisze the more profitable conferencing biz for DSL) that are worse htna crude oil. An aslo ran at best in the DSL world. A hope , wish and prayer that will get sold hard. You should beat them to the punch.....
