Metals, you haven't seen "this $0.05 stock will be $0.50 very soon"? Same percentage as the article. Or, this, or that stock is going to fly posted on this thread? Even the wise advice on playing pennies holds that a trading position be sold off as soon as investment is returned, all the time while touting. My point is that caution should be exercised, the SEC is looking to increase its power, maybe even looking to control stock information on the internet, its coming, and coming soon IMO.

More Stock info IFOS: 22M O/S 9M in the float. About IFS: INTERNATIONAL FOAM SOLUTIONS, INC., a Florida corporation since 1993, has developed a patented, completely new, innovative method for recycling polystyrene known as the Styro Solve System. On September 17 1998 the company became a public corporation. IFS became a fully reporting company trading on the OTCBB as IFOS with an effective date of January 23, 2000. On May 28, 2000 IFS received SEC and NASQD approval. The Styro Solve System uses a biodegradable and environmentally safe liquid called STYRO SOLVE that reduces the volume of polystyrene directly on-site in a small machine called The Solution Machine. The machines can be used in the food service industry and packaging industry. Food service polystyrene alone in the United States exceeds 150 million metric tons annually. The reduced polystyrene, known as "polygel", can then be processed into a saleable bead, flake or chip then can be used by re-converters. ************************* STYRO SOLVE is the patented liquid product that dramatically reduces the volume of polystyrene foam. Reduced volume means smaller dumpsters or fewer pickups resulting in cost savings for the user. Reduced volume also means less space in landfills. Far more important, reduced volume effectively lowers transportation and handling costs to the recycler... Meaning: Polystyrene recycling becomes an economic reality. The STYRO SOLVE Liquid softens and dissolves expanded polystyrene. Air trapped in the foam is released leaving a dense, space-saving material called POLYGEL. The polystyrene in the POLYGEL is chemically unchanged. After treatment, the recovered polystyrene can be recycled again and again. STYRO SOLVE reduces all polystyrene, expanded or not. STYRO SOLVE is made with a blend of natural ingredients and biodegradable ingredients. STYRO SOLVE is the innovative, easy, safe, cost effective and "environmentally friendly" approach to the problem of polystyrene foam waste.

However, I am told that they are taking care of these problems now. The $178K lawsuit is the biggest one and funds are being raised to clear that one. If fact, sources close to the company say they can actually settle it for significantly less than $178K. If the Japan deal which was detailed in the 5 Sep NR goes through, this will likely not be a problem either way in MY OPINION. Company contact info: International Foam Solutions, Inc P.O.
