Sad, sad, sad.

Sad, sad, sad.I am having a difficult time believing the fine print in this release. Not only, as you point out, is insider debt being converted at about .28/sh, but also check out the details of those preferred shares that they're issuing themselve: Pay US$1000/sh today. Get 8% dividends ($80/sh) per year for the next few years. In year four, it's your choice of double your money back or, if the shares take off, forget the measly double--you can convert your pref share into common at a huge discount to today's price (at the rate of about CAN.27/sh). Win, win, win (if you are an insider). I say--sad, sad, sad.
