Hello, Paul. You are right that NATS doesn't need an injection of dough, but going into the online brokerage biz and launching nationwide requires some serious cash. . . so it doesn't surprise me. As for today's action. . .that doesn't surprise me either. . .the stock makes such quick sharp gains that consolidation is both inevitable and helpful. Considering that NATS left 5 two days ago. . .the fact that it is holding 7 is quite impressive. . .and the buying hits it all at once, whereas the selling is in a trickle. As for posting elsewhere from here. . .you just haven't noticed. I post on Raging Bull under on the following boards: RANDE HEAR LPTHA XYBR NATS PLCO Those threads had nearly no posting, until I woke them up with an analysis. Now all those threads are doing just fine on RB. I generally stay away from Yahoo, unless there is a board with no posting, then I will help get discussion going. Now if you call that "promoting" then so be it. You promote IATR. So what? I agree that momentum has been gradually building in IATR. . . I still have my preferreds. And came close to buying a few shares of common, but was too late to the party. . . .if I am not first into these little ones, the risk rises with the price and I generally just let them go. As for Rhombic, it is up 5X from where it was a month ago. . .you should have come around back then. . .now the upside is limited and the downside is vast. . . also, news leaks too easily from Rhombic. . . too many trade on coming news. . .leaving regular folk holding the bag too often. . . and as a general rule, I don't trade Vancouver OTCs. Thanks for your thoughts. Rande Is

Paul M: Don't know you or your trading goals, but if I may offer some unsolicited advice. DON'T TOUCH NUKE WITH A TEN FOOT POLE! It is the slimiest of the slime, lower than sludge in a cesspool. In my BB days I traded it and was caught up in their hype. The chief PR guy is a scammer who has left dozens of messages on my phone telling me that big news was coming and that the stock should be $10 by next week (it was currently 30 cents!). I have sent copies of those phone messages to the SEC but they have no control over Vancouver, Canada stocks. If you are lucky enough to make money on it, it is at the expense of other traders who have been scammed. Believe me, that stock smells bad. FWIW Baton
