Yeah for two days it held steady around $7.50 too, but that was short lived. Well I would bet it will be down a great deal by Friday of this week.

I sent an email to FNTT last week and ask them how they expected to make money on this Crayon Crawler if they were giving the software away.

Here is the answer: They wanted to get the Crayon Crawler on the desktop and then they would make money by the advertising that would exist through the Crayon Crawler.

I sent another email and said: Well that is all well and good, but in as much as the Crayon Crawler was designed for the primary purpose of children, how much good would advertising do when it is only observed for the most part by children. I do not know of too many children that will pay attention to the advertising and run out and buy what is advertised. It is usually the adults who have the money and respond to advertising.

Wouldn't you know it, the party on the other end turned tail and avoided trying to answer that question. Anytime you start thinking and ask some real hard core questions these guys find a way to duck it and run off. What you have here is basically a shell of a company with little in the way promising earnings.

Has anyone been able to short this puppy? I tried Ceres and Schwab and couldn't get it.
