<<Must have split personalities because you're one sick puppy. First off, I think KG4 has gone over the top in his criticism of you.>> My criticism is mainly with JM and yes, I am critical of STRATS investement methods...3.5 mil shares at .02 and it goes to .35 and he sells none and then buys more at .17 - .195. The guy could be a millionaire, if he isnt already, with no further risk....so yes, I am critical of JM as a human being and I like Strat, I just dont believe anybody could be doing what he is ...... <<However, regarding your statement, I think the same could be said about John M. Hollen, who's apparently been busted for talking to himself with multiple names. Personally, I think your investment strategies are your business, and with that many shares it would have been very hard to get out in the .30+ range (and how would you have known it wouldn't go higher?). Again, you could be lying about the size of your position, but so could any of us, so unless an individual has shown compelling reasons not to be trusted (in John Hollen's case), I don't think anything productive can result from endlessly questioning a person's stated position.>> He could have sold every one of those 3.5 mil sharhes above .30..watch level 2..... <<However, I think KG4 has offered legitimate criticism of John Hollen's continued efforts to ban and silence dissent about stock picks. For instance, I posted a NYT article on the APXR board about how the big oil companies weren't at all interested in drilling in Alaska, and John Hollen banned me shortly thereafter. It's completely possible that he banned me purely out of spite and not due to the possibly bad news I posted, but you'll have to ask him. Regarding other people he's banned, you can come to your own conclusions. I think we should focus as much as possible on discussing SPRL and related issues, both the good AND THE BAD, specifically because discussing the bad is not allowed on the other board. I strongly believe that if criticism was allowed on the other board, it wouldn't be needed here. Jesse >> JM is a joke....I am far more critical of equities I am long in then ones in which I have no position...be critcal...look at the worst case scenario..avoiding looking at both sides of the coin is not a good thing, imo....

<<Again, unfortunately, Strat has found itself on a tout minefield,with the mines being placed by a shareholder. >> LOL...this guy actually thinks a SHAREHOLDER is paying many third parties to tout sprl???? And sprl can do nothing about it??? LOL....Maybe you shouold mention that to an attorney and watch him laugh...a company has a shareholder paying third parties to do....DOESNT MATTER WHAT!!!....And the company has no recourse???? TOO FUNNY!!! Hey, I have some swamp land for sale in the arizona desert..you interested? ( not you jessie...the guy that made this comment). You seem to be very gullible and believe things that are almost impossible to believe that anyone could actually believe them <g>

<<First off, I think KG4 has gone over the top in his criticism of you. >> He claims to have 3.5 mil+ shares with a .04ish cost basis...the stock goes up to .35.....he does not sell a single share...has all his money sitting in this one pink sheet basket....You think that is smart? Yes, I am critical of anybody that claims what he is claiming....anybody...and I mean anybody....that has all their money sitting in a pink sheet...with over 3.5 mil shares....and it goes from nothing to .35, would be taking SOME profits at least. Not doing so is ridiculous. I think it is very stupid to have a ton of profit in a pink sheet stock and not take at least some of it off the table. Question, Jessie..if you had 3.5 mil shares at .04 and it went to .35, would you still be holding ALL of your shares? I dont know about you, but most sucessful investors would have taken HUGE profits while they were there and left FREE shares on the table.....an absolutely no lose and guaranteed get rich scenario..... he has 3.5 mil shares....currently not a penny of profit booked. I have FAR LESS SHARES and I bought at .145 and .125ish, not .04- yet, I did sell above .30 and I now have a guaranteed profit and plenty of free shares to ride....FRankly, I would much prefer to be in my shoes, then his, regardless of his millions and millions more shares he owns then me...I am currently in a no lose situation. profit is booked..it can go to zero and I will still have a nice profit..if it goes up, profit will be that much more....meanwhile, this guy has ALL HIS eggs in a pink sheet basket and is not smart enough to do the math and take some off the table between .15 and .35 after such huge % gains on 3.5mil shares??? And after not selling ANY above .30, he buys more between .15 and .195?? Sorry Jessie, I am very critical of such ridiculous investing methods......and ya know what...IF SPRL shoots to the moon, no doubt this guy will be saying " I told you so", but the bottom line is if it does shoot to the moon, I too will be making MORE profit then I already booked..meanwhile, I have nothing to lose...so, even if sprl does shoot to the moon, I would not change my investing methods or think what strats strategy is, is correct...there are no guarantees and he is foolish IMO, when he could have booked huge profits and left a mil or 2 free shares on the table, to not do so....
