I finally got a call back from Shaman's investor relations person who was about as informative as the press release. I wanted to know what specifically the FDA said at the meeting that caused the the company to issue their release about being "surprised" at the FDA reaction. She didn't know for sure, but thought that it was more of a FEELING that that the Provir process wouldn't go as smoothly through the final approval process as they had once hoped. WHAT? I said. Based on a FEELING you issued a released that sucked 45 percent of what little value remains of our stock? Geezus. She said any further details would have to come from their V.P., whose name I didn't write down because I was busy sputtering. I said you need to issue a more informative statement to ALL of your stockholders. I've been losing money on Shaman for two years and have hung in. I haven't invested more than I can afford to lose. More than losing the money, I hate having some spin-doctor blow smoke up my tutu. Sheees.
