GOOD POST: READ THIS Let the SEC know about the games MM's play. E-mail them with the below with your name. copy of message sent to: rule-comments@sec.gov Dear SEC: I am writing in regards to the proposed law concerning the short selling of OTC-BB stocks(Proposal # S7-24-99). The naked shorting of OTC-BB stocks should be eliminated. One of the main reasons why ?penny? stocks are so risky and volatile is not solely because of the companies themselves, but because of the rampant naked shorting by market makers and offshore brokers, mostly without having to borrow the shares and without "up-tick" or any other limitations. This activity goes unchecked everyday and must be dealt with accordingly. Unchecked and out-of-control chaos and deception seems to run rampant day after day. Unregulated Shorting is used as another weapon against bona fide investors who are squuezed out by unscrupulous manipulators and shorters. The abolition of naked shorting in conjunction with the requirements of being fully reporting will ensure a more fair and equitable market for investors and companies alike, a market where a company's true value is reflected in the price and not distorted, suppressed or inflated artificially by manipulation. Of course, much more needs to be done but finally, in my opinion, we are getting some action and regulations to protect investors a lot better. Keep up the good work ! It is needed ! Respectfully Submitted, _________________________ ( name here ) ( give here your email address or regular address, as you wish or use ) XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Lets everyone spend a few seconds to email the SEC. Don't be lazy. No one will do it for you.

Renamed, I finished catching up on all the messages on the thread before responding to your statement about the thread group in mass. I for one did not read Sam's ignorant remark. I like most on SI don't read Sam at all. He has attacked those that were negative on the stock, than attacked those who were positive. Than attacked management and anyone else to throw the heat off himself for being such a shill. I personally agree with you that racism is where the line should be drawn. I also think Fred Thornell needs to re-examine his attitude, when he welcomes Slammin' Sammy back. One could suggest all sorts of things about Fred if one thought the two of them were like minded. And, by the way, if they are like minded. Don't expect me or many others to want to party with you in Vegas or anywhere else Fred. Maybe Renamed is correct and some people should stand up and denounce Sam for what he is or appears to be. Roy
