It's uncanny how this passage...... The conduct that he describes is common in the world of chop stocks. In their efforts to clean up the world of micro-cap stocks, the regulators have always seemed to be a day late and a dollar short--or perhaps more accurately, years late and billions of dollars short. Their efforts to crush micro-cap fraud are well-intentioned, sometimes vigorous--but they have failed to put more than a dent in the problem. Driving brokers out of the industry does little good when they stay active behind the scenes. Shutting firms does little good when other firms open to take their place. The money is simply too good: #reply-11499742 describes something that was described by ANOTHER author as having happened with one of PABN/PRWT's affiliates/subsidiaries. Six months after the changing of Greenway's name, the firm reconstituted as Cortlandt was facing troubles again. A former broker says he came to work on July 25 only to be told he couldn't trade any more. No one was answering phones at Cortlandt's 45 Broadway office in New York recently. A woman answering the phone at a Mott Street office said the company was now called Gold Country, and that she would have a superior call back. None did. #reply-9592773 WOULDN'T YOU AGREE?

HELENE...!!!...Helene, you dont understand...you just do not get it... your post was probably not off topic...let me explain... the hindenburg blew up in lakehurst new jersey...and it was a long time ago... anyone can see that new jersey is close to new york, and people who were there either have relatives alive today who know about new york or actually live there... some of them could possibly even be employees of some company who did bad things to their past employees...well anybody can see that some of those people, or some of their descendants could work for panam... or at least knew somebody who knew somebody who said they knew somebody who was either there or heard about it from somebody who knew somebody... maybe it coulda been somethin like that...well...maybe it could of... now, according to the reasoning of some of the more informed people on this board, that is all you need to base firm criticism on... so you see why your post was not necessarily off topic...because you just dont know alla them people...and if company a hired somebody and company a did something wrong and then panam, herewith known as company b, to end confusion, came along and hired 'em later on, then that sure makes them all guilty of something...now, doesnt it... makes perfect sense...
