Bubba, IRSN was poised to come out with two products that would take the world by storm a few years ago. Digital film; which would be able to fit into any pre-existing 35MM camera. And in effect turn any camera into a digital camera. And stackable chips which would theoretically be implanted into your clothes and allow you to take your computer with you on the road. Both these interesting concepts never really panned out. So their stock crashed. The digital film concept, although still available, is simply too costly. 499.00 for the film. (or something like that). And wearable computers are still a distant dream in regard to consumer understanding and acceptance. IRSN is a great R&D place which has a very difficult time bringing their products to market and making a profit. Not sure what has caused the recent volume spike. I've been trading a small portion of my portfolio lately just trying to catch quick movements. JNPR may be a good short opportunity today. CIEN and LU didn't have good news for the sector. Take Care, Mike
