,,,,hummmm,,it shouldnt be as much speculation in the present cuz what was told to shareholders back on the 15th. Speculation is certainly part of it but it should be assumed if one thinks DM is actuially being truthful then buying in after news pertaining to a BP deal would most likely dampen any windfall...at least thats what I see,,,,,size of a reward is based on risk,,,,,however if we are flying under the radar to other greedy investors then perhaps buying below the $2 level at this point in time is being smart!...just an opinion.
