Seems to back what some of us have been saying all along, that the company was ilo, and that the rest was bait and switch fodder. But then, with a MC of $40M, the damage is done. This is really low. Many CEOs have derived wealth from a biotech without ever having built a business, but this is a new low IMO.

(exception with respect to my stance was pivanex, which intrigued me. but they let it lay fallow as long as ilo worked to suck people in, IMO.)

Pedigree, we all need to be aware of pedigree. That's why I've proposed that this company was taking garbage forward, to give the appearance of a pipe where little existed.
