Its first and formost secretive esp3ecially to those who have supported a company. Its also a poor excuse for doing nothing and is used a little to often to keep detail;s important to investers about whare their money has been invested. Its nessesary for pending deals but for details about a settlement , thats B.S.. We get stuck with that story all to often with Edig. Sometimes no news is bad news and we got a boat load of that. Fred needs to loosen up a bit he is not the only one invested in this company. So far NDA's have protected the violators and has hidden the information onm settlement fron us. That stinks. Joe I know you disagree . But so far we have had many sttlement wan we the investors know very little .
