...  no one ever said it would be easy!

Very true.  Having my own large block of EDIG for so many years the pain does dull after a few glasses of wine!

Then, reality does settle in and PTSC is still the same company with most of us betting on a positive Markman outcome.  Potential new investors can see the trading pattern and, IMO, simply opt to wait until they know the results. 

For new money, it is my guess (WAG), there is no hurry to jump into these waters until one would know three things:

1. Markman results
2. S & L warrents
3. Dollars associated with new license agreements (or company projected revs)

Worst case:  PTSC looses and now TPL must appeal.  PTSC would need to use the stashed cash to reinvent itself and /or buy a company complete with operations management.  All doable, but time consuming, IMO.  However, it would not be the first time PTSC has needed a new business model and it may not be the last.  This is still a speculative penny stock which has generated a huge return over the past two years.

The frustration many have with management is a bit overdone., IMO. This is the same company that took a $0.07 stock to $2+.  

Two Questions:

1. Why spend any money on PR until you know what your future business model?
2. If you were S & L, wouldn't you want to diversify your holdings to max? Especially knowing PTSC has a chance to loose the Markman?
