rak : Sorry to hear your feeling more cynical, but glad to know it has not stopped you from investing in MNKD ! Believe me, many of us (myself included ) understand and share your frustration ! In spite of that frustration, (especially with the dilution to date ) - I view MNKD to now be in a strong forward progress mode !

It was reassuring to me to hear Dr. Mann voice his continued support and financial commitment to the company & product. I also appreciated that as a C.E.O. he took the time to acknowledge and THANK his long term shareholders for their patience. My personal MNKD "continuous stock accumulation plan" got put on hold ( by necessity, NOT by choice) for the past many months, and it has been frustrating not being able to add a TON under $2.00 !

I am taking an extreme measure that will greatly increase my liquidity that I hope to have accomplished (completed & closed ) in the next 30 days. Once that liquidity is available to me, it is my intention to resume my continuous accumulation at a much accelerated rate. If I included numbers of MNKD shares or dollars (already & going to be ) invested in my message to you they would not be believed and most likely "challenged" by some here. After I finish building my position, I will provide documented "proof" to another poster here ( that I have met in the past) to answer the inevitable couple of posters wanting to call "B.S." !

I believe in Dr. Mann, Afrezza, and MNKD on an almost "fanatical" and impractical level most can't understand. Maybe a few here do....(wink !) - so you "newbies" to the stock pay no attention to me ! I'm a "pumper" and "constant cheerleader" providing little "factual data" to the messageboard. Just a crazy, irrational fool speeding along the path to poverty on a roadway built of MNKD shares. THIS one is my "Brass Ring"- my "RAINBOW" - and I intend to chase it all the way to my destiny whatever that may turn out to be ! As usual, in closing : GO MNKD ! GO MR. MANN !
