RE: 500K shorteddouch bag, did you ever think that this could be 10 shorters at 50,000 shares a piece? Also, you fail to see that the short position has come down and the price has taken a beating, without the short covering the volume would have been truely pathetic. True a short might pump this up a little but if someone says I've had enough with a 60% loss then this could quickly slip intot he low 20's or high teens.
