    And here we find our selves falling deeper and deeper within a hole, with an unwelcome and deteriorating descent to an over looked, simplistic ending.

    If they go down then buy more. That will lower your average cost per share, and you know they have the patents on this so every businss in town including government and military will be beating a path to their door. As soon as the question of poduction facilties is settled look for an immediate jump, huge jump, in stock price. They could also be bought out and any shares would automatically soar. Wow! What an opportunity. Retirement here I come.

    Imagine a nice smooth light garment of your choice that repels water, won't rip, is light as air, warm as goose down, fits to your form,and never wears out.

    Thank you "Spiderman" Fraser.

    I sure hope the applications catch on since I bought stock in them. I knew this would become a reality!
