A lot of players dissapeared, Rich. The cast was large then and crossed a few oceans. Of course some of the better ones are still selling their letters / scripts...

For some reason I decided to swing by to see if anyone was still posting.

This was a learning experience for me. I don't believe that anyone can be told. I think you have to get suckered once before your eyes really open. Fortunately I was in early before the run up and dumped immediately on the bad assay so I lost a pittance. Hell, my CSCO position moves more in a day than I lost on IPMCF so I can't complain too much. I just wish I'd have put that IPMCF money into CSCO or EMC instead...

Dave, interesting on how Green disappeared from SI. A clearer picture of IPM is evolving. Too bad we couldn't see it sooner.

Does anyone remember the Geologist that stood up at the annual meeting (where they showed us the gold) and stated how impressed he was with what he'd seen, and how it took samples back with him to have assayed? There were a lot of people who were either shills or so suckered in that they spouted the company line. I myself argued with Zeev Hed about whether IPMCF would be able to get the water they needed for their operation.

When I do think back on this I kick myself for not dumping the whole load when Furlong and Doyle siphoned off that million bucks through the "loan" to Namibian Copper. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am. That was such a clear sign that I can't believe I was so blind as to not see it.

Anyone remember the other company, MGAU? It looks like they're now calling themselves Xenolix Technologies, a "nanotechnology company", ticker XTCI
(http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/000616/nj_mg_natu.html). The Admundsons are out (http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/000706/nj_xenolix.html), and they've been invited to assist in certain inquiries by the Arizona Corporation Commission (http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/000807/nj_xenolix.html). See what happens when you run your business out of the same office as IPMCF?
