To Jeff re IARC 1) when KG4 first mentioned IARC I was interested and sent him a PM to ask questions. I checked it out and decided to pass on it. At no time did he "pump" the stock to me. 2) I think your original post,"with what I took to be a strong endorsement", is inflamatory, ie., taking a cheap shot. I'll assume you didn't mean it to come out that way.

<<That bothers me. Why? It bothers me because I am suspicious of multiple mentions of a stock which IMHO had weak attributes, by anyone. It bothers me because as far as I am concerned you were favorably mentioning a falling stock which IMHO I felt didn't even have decent short term (1 month+) prospects, as is your right, but also, at least in the posts I remember, without mention of a few critical details, which I have mentioned prior. I do recall that you mentioned the speculative nature in other posts, the ratio I am unsure of.>> Listen Jeff, I have a plane to catch and really dont feel like arguing with you, but, I too must respond. You are suspicious of multiple mentions ?? First, I suggest you go look around. SI is the one and only board I post on. The IARC thread is dead on SI, so I rarely....rarely post there. I have not to my recollection mentioned this stock on any other board, other then this, and maybe qcom when I was talking with cosmo daisy and margin mike. Multiple mentions!!?? $hit jeff, I have mentioned IARC less in 6 months then many people mention stocks on this thread in a single day. I have seen many, many stocks get mentioned repeatedly...how many TOTAL posts over the last year have I made about IARC ?? 10, 15...maybe 20 at the utmost...and you are suspicious of my multiple postings ?? You mention weak attributes. Let me ask you something. First you admitt to doing very little DD and knowing very little about the company, yet you can claim it to have weak attributes?? What kind of attributes do lptha and many other speculative issues have that have lost 80% in the last 2 weeks??? Your concerned because I favorably mention a stock you dont find worthy!!! Man, you are too much. I thought it was my right to favorably mention something I like and I am thrilled you dont find it worthy...I suggest you stay away from it, dont buy it, and dont worry about it. Let me ask you something however....what, and how much do you even know about this company for you to make sucj a statement. So I follow a company for years...know people involved with the company and it's technology and I am not allowed to say I like it...not allowed to ..."mention it favorably", as you say ???? Yet your extensive knowledge of the company allows you to say it is not worthy and bla, bla, bla... Listen jeff...lets just end this. You need to take a peek at my history of posts. I think you will see the furthest thing I am is someone that runs around hyping something...anything, and if I do say something positive or negative, I usually have pretty good reasoning. So lets just leave it at this....You stay away from IARC and dont worry about it. I will continue to invest as I see fit, and I see IARC as a good opportunity so I am on top of it...you dont, so go your merry way and do your merry thing. KG

PS <<It bothers me because as far as I am concerned you were favorably mentioning a falling stock >> Jeepers Jeff...I was mentioning a falling stock, huh. Ha! And what have all the other stocks being mentioned the last month on this thread been doing ??? I'll bet 95+% od stocks mentioned have fallen, so what exactly is your point??? Did you happen to know that IARC was up something like 4500% in a few months time? It then dropped in acordance with everything else, and like I said earlier, I had many brand name stocks that took more of a hit then IARC. And what about now...since everything crashed, my brand names are slowly doing nothing, yet my IARC is up over 100%. Do you happen to know about any of the cotracts they are doing ? Have you been to the company? Do you know any of the other companies they are "in bed with "? Do you know of the latest institutional interest in the company ? Do you know what the "talk on wallstreet" is with this company? I could go on, but I will let this rest. I am sorry to be so harsh with you, but you have the gall to make a statement like the above, while evry damn stock in the world was falling....well....lets just end this, You have a great easter and good luck with your investements.
