GoLong, I agree totally with your analysis. We have to get new interest to help us battle what ever is going on. I guess these are the 2 things management can do, like you say.

1) promo team working close to home ( I agree, I see little to no interest from the foreign trips)

2) We have to start getting continuous news and full confirmation when we are drilling

What we can do to support our investment;

1) create awarness of what we have so every retail investor here knows how valuable this stands to be.

2) inform investors what may be happening with our sp, and ways to prevent it, or at least not to contribute to it.

3) if the suspected manipulation continues, execute a plan to take to the authorities

You say maybe some nervous people are selling, that is very likely. But if they are not selling their whole positions, then they are devaluing what they are holding onto and helping a shorting scheme, if present, into devaluing their investment even more. Some people might say, take some profit off the table when we get a good run. I dont necessarily agree with that in this stock. If we are battling something sinister, like I suspect, then I think thats the worst thing a long SLI investor could do at this time, unless they sold the works of their position.

But, I guess we all have our own choices.
