Albie,

The only flaw in your conspiracy premise would be the idea that IF they could control it like you think, then wouldn't they be better off buying when it is really cheap...you know like ,94, .64, .54. 34, .16 or whatever arbitrary price was decided, and then just let it run to where those "who know what they have" know where it should be at $1, $2, $5...or again, whatever arbitrary price they have decided, and therefore make %1000 instead of scalping it for a measley %15?

I gotta tell you that whenever MM boogeymen are conjured and blamed for action a companies poor stock performance, it has been my experience that the boogeymen are really closer to the company than you think, and it has nothing to do with MMs.

Good Luck
