Anybody know anything about Markland Technology...looks like a real business with real contracts, 200 employees, and is down from 15 cents in August and near a buck in the last year, only to be around .042 with positive news coming out...appears to have somwhere between 90 million and 150 million shares O/S, so not too bad there either. Thinking it's a good entry price and a viable interesting business....
