Confession time ...
I have QASP on the brain, in my dreams ... At the Shrub, all over the net ... In fact lets count them ...

Kidding, of course the lic. plate ... hmmm.
Have just about exhausted myself researching this and finally just sent Dean an email, a bit too polished upon reflection, probably thinks I am lawyer or a spy from the SEC.
Went back and did the opposite of Bill and think I found a way to get off the shrub addiction by immersing myself into it even further. Actually went back to Post #1 and started clicking through them speed reading style ... Got historical from it all (the postings originate from the former Equus holders and company), it helped to see who has been in this thing for awhile over there but also got me interested in the players prior (and current), the lawsuit, etc.
Pretty intriguing story how this has played out so far. If anybody has an interest or needs some sleepy time reading material ...

It's only 196 items ...
But it was quite enlightening to read the accusations against these gutter dwellers. Picked up on some of the names that are still involved with Quasar today (or were until recently, Marty Zell for instance) and naturally plugged these into various searches ...
Being still suspicious/skeptical and not wanting to color anything it appears that much of what I had picked up on the shrub was true - They went after these guy's, threw the bums out and apparently salvaged the shareholder base. It was a little tricky trying to ascertain who might have been a culprit or a victim of the shenanigans - Lisa Betros, (current SVP of admin. @ Quasar) was mentioned but appeared to be a victim as one example.
A piece that Marty sent Washington Mutual regarding the roaches, er gentlemen in question -

Couldn't find any real conclusion to the case, what became of it all. Once again, much is piecemeal trying to make a comprehensive ... evaluation. I still remain skeptical until proven otherwise, to my mind there is every possibility that a similar situation could be underfoot, it is still the Pinks and the pennies. Having stated that much I haven't found anything fishy with the current group, probably more the opposite ... still the radar is ... blah, blah, blah ...
(Insert here - Couldn't let this one linger without a mention - It goes back to a time before things were uncovered by these 'outstanding citizens' and shows the sheer audacity and presumption ... to put it mildly. Pretty incredible and serves as just another one of those things we already know about taking any PR at face value ...

One item of interest came about here -

"Combustion Engine Technologies, Inc."
Dean Bradley and Lisa Betros, Jamie Herring all listed ... Not sure what to make of it, might bring it up if I get a response from Dean. Curious.
One item that did make me wonder is why there hasn't been any mention in almost all of the PR's about
