JDP, Hello, my friend! LTNS! Glad to see you on this train too! so it is a delight to see you, EyeDrMike, AJ, and others kick his butt. :-) Even for the uninformed about this company and its potential, you all have rallied knowledge against innuendo very effectively. That goes double for me! I got scared out of this one once (false alarm), don't want it to happen again. Take Care, E'Lane

JDP's right...the shorters are always out in earnest after a stock makes a quick run up. Their latest tactic is to "prove" DD by cutting and pasting every SEC doc they can get their hands on. Check out Auric's thread yourself (do a find for Auric at the bottom of this page)...notice that he always pumps the short but never calls his cover. He is on every board where there is a quick run up, the stock du jour. Of course, these things are going to pull back; after a little consolidation they can explode. Do your own homework, check it out. I'd love to ignore this guy but can't sit here without giving my 2 cents... ASTN has technology which institutions want to trade with, management is bright and in tune with institutional needs, besides a possible IPO for its Gomez division.

Auric both is excellent at studying a companies financials,and funding.and very excellent at rooting out "rats" in management--here however " his rat jumping a sinking ship" are not the guts and heart of this company but the "inside" shareholders,that have virtually nothing to do with the company--so I must honestly disagree with Auric on this--but in their funding I can't deny ASTN got itself it seems entangled with LEECHES-----the whole issue right now,is ASTN being pumped(via the rumor mill) by the LEECHES that exploit companies when they are in financial trouble and then milk them or are these legitimate rumors,that have some real substance--if there is substance to rumor,the past problems will be over-ridden---this is an interesting case --it is my nature to keep an open mind with Auric,even though his "it looks like you have been taken line" is not approbiate--Max
