Some random thoughts.
Now this is a stretch. But, I'm sure you have heard the term "there is no such thing as bad advertising". What if Mr.Parks involvement in all this is still from a promotional aspect. That sff actually used Mr.Parks notoriety in order to promote sff even more(assuming they had all the sec bases covered). Had conference call just before release of BAT results stating that sff will release before the end of the month(nothing else of significance came from the call). It seemed odd how he answered that question,didn't? At first he said he didn't want to be held down to a time frame, I believe it was 10 days or something like that. Then he went onto to say results by the end of the month which is a 4 day longer time frame!
