Gary, I wasn't fully serious in my post. I know you're basically out of the IR game.

My point was that they gave some geek half a million bucks to spam here and there about the stock.

Your posts about it on SI may have been more valuable in creating awareness among large penny investors than this kind of effort and has been uncompensated.

I'm not in the stock, and I guess I just get mad as an investor if my company hands out a boatload of stock for doing next to nothing. And if they're free trading, that makes me still madder.

I probably came across differently than I intended. I'm a fast typist, and sometimes my fingers get a bit ahead of my brain. LOL

Thanks for all your help,
Bud

<I have resigned of all IR positions and probably will not be another IR.>

You'd make a much better IR guy than some of the bozo's out there.

The last IR I spoke with, won't name the company, but I am no longer in it, told me, in about this order, you'll have to guess what the questions from me were.

"who, where did you get my name?"

" news release, when?"

"file what, oh, no I don't think they have to file."

"oh really, well they don't have an E so they must file"

"oh, well then they have lots of time"

"oh, pink sheets, really, when is that again?"

And his last words, before I said goodbye!

"oh, well I haven't actually spoken to the company for quite some time"

Fortunately, the stock popped 100%+ in a few days, before dropping back 60% the last couple.
