Marking time

It's not that I've not wanted to update this blog in the past month; it's just that there's been nothing worth noting. Sure there's the odd post saying how big next month will be, but it's not as if we haven't heard that one about a hundred times, followed 98 times out of the hundred with a "who cares, so maybe we were a little early". Then there was the brief boost in the stock triggered by... um... let me get back to you on that.

But anyway, the sense of wonderment and excitement, the way shareholders would spend all kinds of time dreaming up theoretical uses for SPD, or searching for companies whose representatives might have had occasion to bump into Joe Harary, or scouring Google for anything that even might be a new reference to their pet company, all of that is just gone. Worse still, some of the formerly regular posters on REFR's board can now be seen posting to other stocks, meaning they've not given up on the stock market, but rather just given up on REFR.

The bullish contingent is as weak as it has ever been (even more so than the depths of the no-supplier era) and the bears seem bored if anything.

Even this blog's "answer" blog hasn't been kept up in nearly three months; admittedly partly because it necessarily can't be more active than this one, but even then, this post makes the ninth post since the last response from my shadow.

Anyway, I'll check back in another month if -- despite the confident predictions to the contrary -- nothing happens before then.
