Vlad, you're the man!

Hey, thanks for the synopsis, that is exactly what I was looking for. I knew you were the one I could come to. I actually, caught the patent announcement, but was unsure what it really meant for VVUS (time frame, competitive products, etc.). I like the fact that it is no longer a one product company. I admit it has been a long time since I have done any DD on this stock for quite a while, as I have been too preoccupied with the internuts and drillers for the past several months. From what you say, it definitely warrants a closer look.

I think I've been burned four times with this stock, and am always able to buy it back at a lower price. For some reason, I just keep coming back. From what you say, the company seems to hold more promise now, more than ever, yet is trading near it's all time low.

BTW, I never thought VVUS had no future, only that the shorts seem to be more powerful than ever on this stock. One think still hasn't changed is its ability to bounce on news. I'll do further DD and maybe lurk on this thread a while, now that I'm more up to speed. A lot has changed for this company in the last year.

Thanks again, Vlad.

Todd
