Hi Win,

Thanks for the articles. On Axcelis, it sure seems that Mr. Parsons has found what Dorothy Parker might describe thusly: "What kind of fresh Hell is this?"

The PinkMonkey.com group reminds me of Lumenon (LUMM), a company on the bleeding edge of fiber optics which has, remarkably, been able to avoid the nuisance of having any sales for years.

Best, Ray :)

I remember a company in the early 80's called ZZZBest. They were a carpet cleaning company in LA that was laundering money for the mob. They experienced incredible spikes in sales and they went form $1 to $27 dollars in a matter of weeks on the NAZ. Every night on NBR I remember them being mentioned as a big mover. A few weeks later, after an investigation, they were de-listed. Can you imagine how people felt who bought this thing at $27 bucks a share and found it was a front for the mob and had no real earnings?
