I bet that's still about 3x as much as it was when most of the big adult guys bought it.

It's all a big insider trading thing. They knew they'd hit a cieling where the schmucks would stop paying eventually. Cash out and cha-ching they've got massive earnings from the market

True but it is nice to see it head back down to my target price of 0.

"They are claiming that the universities should pay them," Rawlins said. He added that OUS officials have met with Department of Justice attorneys about the issue. "We believe these technologies are in the public domain, and that we have a legitimate right to use them." He said the university system is analyzing Acacia's letter and crafting a response.

The state of Oregon may be joining the fight against Acacia soon.

I the article earlier and i called over to Ben Rawlins' office (he's not available right now)..got his email tho, so I sent him email.... the assistant that answered the phone told me that he is not handling this case, the State of Oregon is......ouch... this was a bad move, imo, to have taken on universities...especially in this case..since now the State Government is getting involved.

Yeah, really in the shitter, huh?

Looks like a normal, healthy pullback after a big runup... nothing goes STRAIGHT up.

Yes son, that is a healthy pullback.

After going from sub-$2 to $7.50.... a pullback to $5 is to be expected.

I've seen the chart. This is the beginning of the end. Just wait and see, this stock will eventually be traded for pennies and then a bit later it will just go away entirely.

Well, you see, people are starting to see that this is a company that does nothing and does not have a viable business model. They are doomed to failure.

Let me explain their business model to you.

1) Find a non specific patent that can fit something widely in use.
2) Approach weak companies with the threat of stopping them trading with a court order.
3) Hope the prospect of spending $100,000+ in cout will be enough to scare people into paying a license fee.
4) Hope no one has the balls or money or organised enough to take you to court.
5) Count the money you made by charging for a BS license, when a judge eventually knocks down your patent.

They made $27 million on the V-Chip patent with this business model, anyone here got a better business model?

The problem could be that at the end the situation with Acacia, is they walk away with millions in profit after they get kicked out of court. The defendants have spent their hard earned cash they cannot recover in costs.

Then another company with another BS patent sees they can also make a profit from us. And the chances of them being stopped in court are reduced, because those willing to fight cannot afford it.

If you think Acacia are a unique company please go to www.fightthepatent.com.

If you think the guys in court will do it everytime for the rest of us, wake up and smell the coffee.

If you think that by sending traffic to a licensee you are helping yourself, read the above.

The idea of [url=http://wwwpaulmarkham.cm/auction][b]Patent This Auction Site[url] is to provide the funds to fight this, show those that signed another altenative and predators that we can oganise and protect ourselves.
