Graystone; I am sad to say that the Famous PT Barnum saying is operative. You know the one about the fresh birth of new suckers every day. Somehow the new people convince themselves that they have stumbled upon a treasure....well they have read about it happening to others, like winning a lottery, and there are thoe that agree with them on the same thread and who are also buying. There is the new tech stuff, they do not understand it, but it sounds good and Dr this and Professor that are in agreement and a herd mentality develops... and then they wonder why the share price went from $10 to 12 cents.... I know why. Bill
