Hmmm.....What if, a shell company announced a merger with another company that had assets, revenue, etc., and then announced, before the merger mind you, that it was going to undertake a HUGE reverse split. Say 300-1 for instance. Then this 'other' company, assets and all, watched as the stock dropped like an apple onto chicken little's head. When the stock neared bottom the investors in this 'other' company started to gobble up all of those shares at next to nothing prices. Just because a company announces a 'pending' development doesn't mean that they are legally bound to that decision. Kind of like a crooked judge asking the jury to forget the testimony they just heard, and that it should be stricken from the records. Tampering? Prove it! hyperteck

John, I have made it a point to avoid, trying to tell people what to do with their investment, I am not neither saying buy or sale this stock. Although I did say hold it if you already have it. What I mean by supporting it, is to hold it longterm or short term in a positive manner, not shorting it, getting behind management and giving them confidence and the moral support to do the right thing. One these terms we have been given its not going to happen. Honestly these guys have given us no choice, but sale at a huge loose or if they do get a NASDAQ listing, jump on the shorting bandwagon and recoup what loses we can. They are the ones that have caused this problem not us. John this is not directed at you, but some other posts, I hope everyone will think about, all this throwing around of I own _____ amount of shares @ .0X, no matter the price, really doesnt matter. A person that holds 2 shares at .5 has much more at risk as a person that owns 1000 at .01, the cash out lay is the same, basically they have just as much at stake. I am posting that because we become our own worst enemies by considering big investors by share counts alone, it starts to create a devision from within, and we have enough problems without that factor. We are all in the same boat. I hope you guys are not taking my posts as any thing but speculation, because anything could happen. All is not lost if WOTD is willing to "play fair", and some of what I am posting is POSSIBLE scenarios. All I am doing is giving them the benefit of the doubt, but for all I know nothing will change and all the terms will remain the same. So don't get mad at me if none of this I have posted pans out... but I do hope I havent wasted my time and have at least given you all a little more knowledge that may some day help in a future investment. Lets give Jack Arnold a break he has made one mistake so far, its not an ir-repairable mistake, but monumental and costly non the less. He has taken a nothing company and tried to make something of it, I dont know if anyone posting here could have done any better. But none the less he has put us and WOTD in a difficult postion.
