HI DEAN !
This news release (SEPT. 97) seems that Cambior is very interested in ZAPPA as they now hold 6,400,000 shares or 27%, and may increase . Maybe that feeling I've been having of someone trying to keep the stock price down is more than just a feeling. As it would be in Cambior's best interests.
