DD, I would say I'm sorry you're freezing your butt off. But :) I'm not!! <ggg> Somebody up there is burning oil to keep warm. Your raincheck is always good with me. Just have to hang on a little while longer. My fingernails are sure sore, though. Nice move on HEC today. Doesn't look like the "bandits" are going to keep this one down. There was posed a question on another thread as to validity of Zeev's theory based on volume of shares being traded. The question was <If there are "bandits" out there shorting to facilitate Zeev's theory, wouldn't it be reflected by increased volume in trading? Comparing volumes to year-ago figures, shows no appreciable increase in HEC trading this year or during the current time frame.> It would seem reasonable to assume that volumes would have to be higher to suppress the price, but then again, I'm not sure how much volume it would take given all the extraneous crap that has happened as of late. What do you think, Zeev? It was an interesting question, for which I am not qualified to answer. Anyone else got any ideas? Rod.
