Woo! another challenge!
The reason I put out this challenge is because noone checks and rechecks his facts more than I do. Being who I am, I cant afford to make a single mistake, not even one.
Ok, here goes.
SLPH report:
SULPHCO Inc, used to be called Filmworld Inc., until April, 27, 2001 and prior to that It was known as American Pacific Financial Services Inc. prior to July 30, 1999
Almost true, but not quite. Sulphco was called Filmworld, Inc until April 9th, 2001. April 27th was the day of the symbol change, from FWLD to SLPH. Yes, thats right, there was an 18 day period wherein the company was called Sulphco but changing hands under the old symbol. Here's an excerpt from the PR dated April 27, 2001, announcing the change that took place on April 9th, 2001.
Friday April 27, 1:15 pm Eastern Time Press Release SOURCE: SulphCo. Inc. SulphCo. Name Change From FilmWorld Results in New Trading Symbol RENO, Nev., April 27 /PRNewswire/ -- SulphCo. Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SLPH - news) announced the completion of its name change from FilmWorld Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: FWLD - news) on April 9, 2001.
