I apologize if this has already been discussed, but what happens to the MNKD the day of trading? Is it halted the whole day? Part of the day? Not at all? I'm wondering if I should be taking that day off of work in order to react to the AdCom as it happens, or if there's no point since everyone is locked out of making trades.
Also, have they established a new link where we can watch/listen to the AdCom for free?
Thank you! Slushy

My understanding is halted all day. My understanding on second question is no free lunch.

1.b) Yes, a YMB user will be live covering the adcomm via blog postings. He covered ARNA before and did an excellent job. I'll post the link when the time comes if someone doesn't beat me to it.

That's the guy who can type really fast, right, Chris. But you can't hear it for yourself, which would be nice, without paying a couple hundred bucks. If you've got the time, what's $200 at a time like this!

haha, I don't expect him to write everything but you are right, Bob. I recently downloaded Dragonfly, which is a voice to text program and it works well. If I choose to purchase the call, I may post the Adcomm notes onto the Shoutbox; we'll see! I've since sold 5% of my MNKD holdings as of lately. The original plan was to "ride or die", but I realized personal conviction shouldn't trump risk management. Another big factor was needing to set money aside for a sailing voyage I'll be going on. Interesting times ahead in MNKD world.

I'll definitely open up the Shoutbox on the day. Keep in mind that it only scrolls back a limited amount of time. We'll also want to keep a regular thread going for the really important stuff. As of right now, I am planning on purchasing the webcast and will try and post as I listen. But don't rely on me - I'm not the greatest at transcribing. I may try and keep matese's blog going on a separate computer also.
I like the idea of Dragonfly, but you won't be able to post the entirety of the Adcom into the Shoutbox - maybe snippets.

Just to clarify, are we all in agreement the stock is halted the entire day?

Don't kill yourself, Liane; what's most interesting to me is how the back and forth goes, is everyone really polite, the manner in which the questions are asked (nasty, contentious, softball, hardball, pointed followups, but more about tenor than content), things like that. Sometimes, you might get the feeling that the questioner is trying to trap or trick the responder, for example. But, bottom line, since they vote that same day, and the stock will not be open for trading until the vote is known, it's all really more about curiosity. They can be as polite as pie, but if they vote against, that will tell the real story, and, of course, vice-versa.

This is something I am actually trying to figure out- I am debating on taking the day off from work. I was actually going to set up a post for the topic (since it took me three years for the first post).
Did we ever get an idea of how many people from is board will be at Adcom live (I may have missed)?
