Rod, The issuance of shares isn't really linear, it's recursive due to the built-in reinforcement: the dilution drives the price down triggering more dilution. It's a high-gain dilution amplifier with a destructive feedback loop. It's thermal run-away that can only be quenched with a bucket of operating cash to the tune of $47,000,000 in cold, hard cash. You are correct sir. Linear was a wrong word. By the way, nice job in describing the effects of a floorless in one paragraph. One of the best I've seen. Cube
