Hello rrufff,

You're asking, essentially in scope, "tell me all I want to know about the Boer War, in one or two minutes whilst I'm on this elevator." Can't be done. Condensing approximately 2000 days of posts into even 1/10th of 1% would still leave you with 2 days of reading time. If you truly want to understand the where it's at and what has transpired, your best bet is to narrowly focus some questions, get a specific starting point.

I'll give you a quick "Cliff's Notes" start, you can progress from there. By the time AZNT rolled around, RMIL had already been promoted by Pugs as a "short squeeze rocket". If you don't count some minor issues like products and financing that never materialized (and were never meant to because they didn't exist), and if you ignore getting shut down by the SEC, it was a reasonable play.

Pugs moved onto AZNT and was so certain that it'd be another "short squeeze rocket" that he intended to bait Janice, et. al. into it. That it suffered the same fate of the same minor issues of products and financing that never materialized (again, because they never existed), and also the same fate of getting shut down by the SEC is merely insignificant. There's a quickie two-paragraph start, for ya.

Where and what do you really want to understand from there?

"A serious question - Is there some place where a novice can get some fairly brief summaries and I mean brief re the pugs v mitchell, shell, et als. wars? I'd like to understand both sides. It seems quite fascinating but I don't have the time to read pages and pages of posts and often skip the longer ones here"
