Thanks for the brilliant thinking--Fred has not bought in the past and is not now. The patents have been presumed valid for years and the reexam stuff has just come up in the last year or so. He certainly is privy to more than we are and yet does not buy. Even without knowing the results of the reexam he can't pony up $3,000 for 100,000 shares to signal his faith in the company? Maybe your kid can loan him the money.
