You betcha, Bob! I didn't know I was "stepping" on your toes when I waxed eloquent re: Tan Range. Area plays are a definite way to make a quick buck...Been there, done that...trick is to be in the front of the line, not the last s/he holding the shares when they collapse.

In other sectors they go by names such as "cousin stocks."

Hell, I've even played stocks that SOUND like the real stock everybody is excited about because it sounds like the real thing...one of my favorite trades was the confusion between MASSTOR and MAXTOR...both electronic data storage stories...one was the real thing and the other benefitted because of dumb ass brokers who couldn't tell what the customer was "wanting to buy at the market" and the customer couldn't spell either.

Area plays and cousin plays...yep, cute ways to make money if you pick correctly...Tan Range AIN'T a correct pick...never has been and never will be. To much rotten in their government and......dare I say it????...okay I'll spell it: p--o--l--i--t--c--a--l shenanigans to sleep at night if you buy Tan Range. That kind of excitement I don't need...nor does my wallet!

Say, do you put up "area play maps" with little stickers on them with names of area plays stocks? Probably don't have time do you... too bad...I know you are swamped just doing the "do's" that you do so well.

Your turn.<g>
