Dear Doug,I have been in ZMAX for app. a year.Started at 16 and keep averaging down,down down. Spoke to them a couple of days ago,the company assured me that their business plan is moving forward, as planned.All the feedback from Nasdaq so far has given them no reason to doubt that their registration will go through.Question is just WHEN? There is a huge short interest in this stock,lets hope that the reg. will come through soon,then we may even see a short sqeeze,I would love it. Happy Holidays to you, Hedy
