Oct., Nov. Dec. raw volume according to TD Ameritrade - 405 Million. . . . include Jul., Aug, Sept. - 697 Million, or about 1/3 of the OS(?)

Only a "Genius" would attribute that to 'Retail Suckers', IMO, but I could be wrong.

Also according to TD Ameritrade, Market Cap is stable, 3.46 million at today's close, which is in the range they have listed it for several months - it does appear that more shares are being fed to the market, but that the perceived value of the enterprise is largely unchanged.

The best anology I can come up with is that 'The Drinks are smaller, but they're charging less for them, so a night on the town is still affordable and popular'.

It would "appear" that interest, on the part of parties of unknown provenance, HAS picked up.

FWIW
