kooter33, Thanks for your thoughts.

Interesting commentary  and perhaps you are right that everyone would all at the same time make that decision  to wait and see. It wouldn't be the first time that investors acted like sheep with this story.

You mention the good old days with those two names as players on the buy side. I viewed them as astute marketers myself and surely they had their followers who helped lift the stock price up quite effectively and looking at a long term chart is pretty easy to see when they were vocal about the upside prospects of their investment. Sponsorship is an important element and it is something I hope returns to the story at some point in the not too distant future and the makeup of that sponsorship is what I will be watching.
