>> IMO, when (not if) it's time for a down market to get excited about IPM, they will and the rise in stock prices will make BXM look like another LLL or NCW..... With this kind of play, I really don't think that aggressive PR would be a smart move.<<

I never meant 'agressive PR', more like 'smart PR'. I don't think it's smart to imply (by whatever means, like hints to a few active members here) that something is going to happen (like a BD verification at the AGM) and then not follow through. I don't think it's smart to say (as in the 5/22/97 PR referring to reporting on the pilot plant) something that obviously is a literal slip and then not retract it. I don't think it's smart (as in the Presidents Spring Message) to say that press releases are coming between certain dates and then do nothing, say nothing, when nothing is released. IMHO, that does not garner confidence - quite the opposite. I shutter to think about the next fumble.

Now you could very well have a point about "when it's time for the market to get excited..", but as stated, the Company has no control over that. It's does have control over it's PR, and smart PR is more than just cool graphics over everything in sight.

Like you said: "But, with the right things happening, I think IPMCF could easily go to $100 in 1997." I want to see the right things happen, and I haven't seen many right things recently.
