Guy, no disrespect intended towards you or whomever wrote the news release regarding the symbol change. I, as a salesman, and always wanting to put a very positive spin on anything, particularly anything that might be construed as a negative, or even a neutral event, would have written the release more like as follows:
----------------
Golden Eagle International, Inc., (traded on Pink Sheets temporarily) is very pleased today to announce that it's stock ticker symbol has been changed from "MINE" to "MYNG".
For practical purposes the new symbol MYNG should be pronounced "mining", not as "ming" or "miang" or "my nnn gee". This symbol change proudly reflects Golden Eagle's natural growth from a company simply owning a gold MINE to that of a company currently focusing its efforts on developing it's MYNG (pronouced mining) rights in Cangalli, Bolivia.
We thank NASDAQ for their cooperation in making this symbol change which more accurately reflects the nature of our business.
etc, etc,
------------
The original release puts Nasdaq in a bit of a bad light, and seems to suggest that GE is not happy with the new symbol, and is now reviewing it's options. I'm hoping that neither of those were intended.
Best regards,
Jim
