Now I'm convinced that you don't read anything I write!!

I have not been paying much attention to your posts because I have been fully convinced that a lot of your posts are purely promotional and filled with hype.

Just a reminder,i see here a lot of people talking about the book value being 2.5-3 but if we look carefully we see that the majority
of the asset side of the balance sheet is not liquid.Most of their receivbles are tied up to their line of credits therefore we can not realy assume that as a "real" source of cash(21 mill).Inventory, Who knows,they may have noncurrent sitting in thr whare house(That 21 mill) Togther only this items represnt the majority of their book value with out considering all the other asset (those assets could be worth substaintially less or more ..Who the hell knows..??
This is one of the most cmplicated statement i have ever seen ..with so many notes and contingencies this is a night mare...
they should have long time cleaned this up..
