"The mathematics involved with a very large short position in combination with what I believe to be the trading tendencies of short sellers makes for a very explosive upside potential for the stock. "

There is statistical proof that heavily shorted stocks get that way for a reason, and are more likely to go down than up. You really should re-examine your above belief, because it just isn't so.

BTW, there are a lot of very patient shorts.
