Why don't they change the name of the company from "Ascend" to "Descend"? Maybe the price would then go up. I'm not selling at these give-away prices.

So...what we are seeing is that Ascend cannot benefit from the contracts it announces, but can be hit by contracts it does not receive...fishy. :-) Also...an ask size in the 400's versus a bid size in the teens doesn't look very nice. The Nasdaq is not all that weak today, and the Dow is doing just fine. Ascend is falling off a cliff. I'd like to hear from Tim and other's who said Ascend wouldn't rise any time soon. What do they know that we don't? Or do they just have a "feeling"? Any insight to changes in the busines model? Etc.?

Ascend just continues to fall. This really sucks. Heavy selling no buyers. This stock is really under attack.
