But Jim, according to Yahoo they HAVE made a dime. 11 cents to be exact. I will admit that to bet on Aviva is like betting on which ant will get across the kitchen floor before someone steps on it.

<AVVPP is another oil company with mostly Columbian assets that will never make a dime.> jim_p, I would never invest a dime in a company with their assets in high-risk South Carolina. Following is a press release from a company in a safer part of the world: "Business/Energy Editors HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 28, 2000--Seven Seas Petroleum Inc. (AMEX:SEV)(TSE:SVS.U) announced today that it has successfully cut a window in the original casing of the El Segundo 6-E well, and is currently drilling below a measured depth of 8,000 feet. The new vertical hole is being directionally drilled to a target measured depth of approximately 9,400 feet with a planned bottom hole location around 3,200 feet northeast of the surface location. Drilling is expected to continue for approximately 20 more days.
