Well? Our little canine is showing some pep this morning. Nice to see us over that $1 hurdle. Anyone have ideas on why we're moving?

Weird Theoretical Question for Davis, Shero, Terry, et al... Whenever I see a stock sit still like we did today, a strange thought enters my mind. It's purely hypothetical (I suppose), but I am curious what you may think of the possibility… What if a “battle” arose against 2 deep pocket, hard-headed Big Shots. Mr. “S” is bound & determined to NOT let the stock rise above 1.00, and Mr. “L” gets vibes of what “S” is up to and becomes equally bound & determined to see that the stock DOES NOT DROP below 1.00. So these two place their GTC Limit Orders as follows: “S” places order to SELL 5,000,000 Shares at a limit of 1.03 “L” places order to BUY 5,000,000 Shares at a limit of .97 This scenario intrigues me. What would happen that day? My guess is Very LOW Volume, with the price hovering very close to 1.00 all day, but I want to know what you folks think. Is this truly a “hypothetical” situation only, or could something like this ever happen (TCLN or otherwise)?
