Personally. I think these dudes are in trouble. But not for the reasons that you think. I think 1.5 billion market cap. Is interesting. But Debt. Why do you need all that debt. Who Stands to benefit from all that. I think that guy from Oracle. What's his name. Was right. I think the only reason this stock did what it did. in the first place. was the 42 percent institutional ownership. Now we got a Quarter Billion share Paper Slosh Fund. To deal with. Does anybody have a match...
