' Canadian Shaman Threatens Stock Market Collapse Unless Pot Is Legalized MITCHELL, S.D. (Wireless Flash) -- It might not be any of his business but a marijuana-loving Canadian shaman is taking credit for the kooky way the stock market has been acting lately. Doug Pederson claims that the current stock volatility is directly related to a curse he put on participating countries of the United Nations back in January, 2000, after they refused to legalize pot. Pothead Pederson made the curse with the help of four sacred stones that he claims are the America's equivalent to the Holy Grail. He claims the stones caused an elevator in the Empire State Building to collapse and now they'll do the same for the stock market, unless pot is legalized. In fact, he's scheduling the crash for around two months from now -- which he says leaves plenty of time for the U.N. to change its weed rules.

EC should be listened to though, he makes good points on it over on 4au's thread, main one is that the major beside your project can be a curse not a blessing, as they can starve you out and pick your bones unless you can develop a stand-alone mine ... and maybe even then, if you have trouble financing it These are the sorts of days to have bids in on the juniors, eh .... i'm not doing much, haven't checked my orders yet, looks like i got a fill on nominal shares of bml.v but not sure ... that's an interesting story, Barker, different sort of outfit, quite a group of shareholders ... judging from depth and chart and its stage of story etc i expect it to sell off a little from here, hope it does, i'll catch a few more
