>>I would hesitate to open new short positions in even the most outrageous frauds such as HEB, ZITL and HEPH>> I'd add ZONA to that list. Looks like we are in the pump phase. I've figured out a seemingly reliable way to detect when ZONA is about to be pumped: the Motley fool ZONA board becomes overrun with pro ZONA posters who post only to that board. So far, this has happened twice and each time the pump was preceded by a several days of shilling (i.e. Bill Wexler is a liar, Asensio is the devil, you shorts are going to get slaughtered etc.). After the pump is complete, they disappear until the next cycle. Wish all stocks had this reliable a pump-n-dump detector.

Strange dayz indeed....ZAP eliminates their dividend and the stock rocks. Here's a question....if they have $100 mil in cash why do they need to eliminate their dividend to pay for their share buy back. Bizarre. Welcome back, Bill. Regards, drakes353

One of the magazines that all Australian doctors receive for free (the advertising pays for the cost) last week had an article about the well-known Dr Goldstein's presentation to the American Urological Association. The article said "Two double-blind placebo controlled trials investigating oral phentolamine found it was safe and effective in treating mild to moderate erectile dysfunction." The report gave the impression that this product was safe and effective, and it would only be a matter of time before it was commercially available. In the absence of any other news, this kind of report could very well push the ZONA price higher.
