Great Post, Chris, thanks for the uplift!!!

I think that a little good news will more than energize this board. I, for one, can say between the trials and tribulations of Mannkind the last few years, the downbeat mood of the country since the financial meltdown and the political squabbling in Washington have provided a perfect "beatdown" for many of us. As a CPA, I have seen a number of my clients battling to keep their businesses afloat in spite of rampant new regulations, reporting, and recalcitrant banks squeezing down credit lines. I am fortunate to live in Texas where the economy is not nearly as bad as other parts of the country, but my hope and prayer is that 2013 will bring renewed optimism, new leadership in all facets of government, and a FDA approval near Christmas!!!! Thanks again.
