in not knowing what is going on with the company. The silence becomes deafning--people want to preserve their capital and act on that. I agree with you on the ``once burned`` theory--I know that if I sold now, I would never come back. I think a lot of investors are losing confidence in DP because he is not letting us know what his plans are at this time. I am in hopes that we hear of a merger/or buying a company that will give us continued revenue---I would like for us not to have to rely on settlements. I will hang in there because I am not totally in the red at this point--I do understand why others are selling at this point and wish them well. Good luck to all, ads
