Ahhhh, Good Gene... And Something For The Cats & Dogs...
You'll find this thread to be always cordial... and informative. (And our old one will get back to its former character and tone soon I think.) And as for that time-out room, it serves its purpose wonderfully.
Now, for a little burnt offering. For the past 13 minutes that's all, I've been reading up about something... well... interesting... and WAYYYYY speculative... PNLK, a, dare I say it, Bulletin Board stock. ProNetLink, is a kind of search engine directory--to eventually include 1,500,000 businesses around the globe. It will be a paid subscription service that will enable businesses to hook up importer/exporter types of all stripes and colors. It's billing itself as the most comprehensive source of importer/exporter directory information in the world.
(Gene, you will want to know that an old acquaintance, a Mr. Luke, is hanging out in its SI room. I just now came across his name. The most interesting and comprehensive post is #301 from someone with the fortuitous handle, Prosperous Soul. As opposed to my new handle, Preposterous Soul.)
I stress, this IS DANGEROUS TERRITORY. Unaudited. Not exactly a big accounting house just signed on. But, it's e-commerce facilitation. It looks like there may even be transaction-based fees. It IS a search engine (says he to the cheers of the District). And, it, on the basis of 13 minutes, sniffs like it might be real. Their website pronetlink.com certainly looks real enough and was supposedly designed by heavyweight site shop (which I've never heard of... but I haven't heard of most heavyweights in this burgeoning field.)
Anyway, perhaps, worth a gander... if you're bored.
Good Evening,
