Boob, I think people just need to chill. The best advice my broker ever gave me concerning big board stocks is "Do not look at the ticker every day." I realize the OTC is different. That practice with some OTC stocks could make you very poor very quickly. However, Arcon is different. They have a real product. They have real potential customers. Customers with names we recognize...like Connoco and Exxon. Think of it as raising a child...we have been thru the wonder years, and now it is time to sit back and watch. The time for DD has come and gone. The time for analysis is over. This stock will eventually grow and flourish, regardless of the actions or inactions of anyone on this thread. It now deserves to be treated like a big board stock. We, as investors, can drive ourselves nuts by spending 24 hours a day obsessing with every dotted i and every crossed t on every piece of paper that has ever had this company's name on it, or we can just chill, sit back and watch it grow. Personally, this stock is very important to me. I have spent the past 9 months of my life reading, tracking, posting, etc. All of a sudden, I look up, and 9 months of my life have passed by. My child is almost a year older. (I have missed a lot of stuff!) Don't get me wrong, it doesn't make MIDL any less important to me. There is just nothing else to be done here. The bases have been covered, and I would rather get back to having a life again as opposed to driving myself nuts obsessing on something that I KNOW will be successful. I'm ready to just sit back and watch it grow. I will obsess on the next one. Just my opinion :-) Binder

Boob you were angry about a forward split over a dividend???? No way. The company just saved you a ton of tax. Dividends are taxable splits are not. Plus instead of two differnet prefer markets you have one. hmmm Oh and a knowb day trader do not send me your supposed long because I refuse to add it to the tally ... if it walks like duck, talks like a duck ... guess what it is a duck. GB I will post my opinon later this weekend on this news. oh and for emailer sending me your tally only what you had at the close of the business day Friday ...
