They have conducted numerous tests and have confirmed that the AMCI VisTrac(TM) technology fully meets their expectations.''

well I miss the pre-crash money machine thats for sure!!!! I am looking at the big picture though....some of my holdings are down because of market conditions and I am holding steady.....takes the fun out of trading on a daily/weekly basis but I figure why take losses when you know that market conditions eventually will turn around. besides I am not a daytrader and my nerve for doing that is slim to none..... I have been enjoying the time "fishing" for bottom stocks and watching and observing some of my finds.....some REAL big losers and others turn out great....in time I will learn to better use the proverbial "weed wacker" and have a better success rate..... I will tell you this though, it's fun as hell to find a stock then a week later see it as a pick from a newsletter or spammed all over the place as the "pick of the century" - LOL ......The trouble with that though is having the confidence in buying something and the patience to "wait" for the day to come everyone else notices it... I have learned much here not only how to look for stocks but on trading as well....tons of room for improvement for sure but while I am no expert, I am not a beginer either and I pity those who follow all the time without trying their hand at doing their own thing. one thing for sure...this is one hell of a crowd....and having fun is certainly right up there with making coin!!! my best, MEB
