Well, nice to see them up from that .115 low...I suspect that now that they have said "expect good news......'sometime'", that it could be quite awhile before anything is announced, if anything even is. Hopefully I am wrong and good news does come out and comes out within a reasonable time frame...if this goes months with not a peep from the company, I suspect this will be lower, not higher...now that they have said to expect good things, that is exactly what people are going to, and if it doesn't happen in a timely fashion..well, you know how impatient investors are......so, hopefully good news will be coming.... Question for ya...you had mentioned that you never pay much attention to people on message boards, but look at the company instead...I agree 100% and you will always see me telling people to not listen to anybody but yourself.....Now, one reason I like to pay attention to what others are saying is coming in to play...we have several people that claim to hold millions of shares, most with an average cost of .02- the same people are claiming approximatly 60 people own a huge chunk of the entire float.......well, When people claim all that, I usually blow it off as bull$hit, as I just don't see anybody claiming to buy at .02, have MILLIONS of shares, but they are still holding and buying, instead of selling at .15 - .20??? So, although I dont put much faith in what they claim, it still is interesting and needs to be looked in to. If these guys are just spewing false numbers trying to act bigtime, great, let them make fools of themselves...but, if indeed there is a remote chance they are truthful and if indeed only 60 people own the bulk of the float....well, you know very well what that means.....this will run to a certain point and then collapse in a day, as these people dump their shares...No way in hell do I believe that so few people could own the bulk of the float and not dump their shares after a nice gain.....Anyway, I really don't own enough of it to worry about it too much, but I can assure you I would not add anymore until I verified a little more info on number of registered shareholders and other info....these 'companies' with small floats controlled by few, normally make huge gains and huge falls...nice to be on one side, but not the other<g>
