I hear you Mike.Same problem here with me.Horses,AC or the market.Your stock was like $3.40 and I am wondering why it is so low? I saw a 5 year chart and the stock was like $70.00 or something crazy like that and someone on RB thread said it was $150.00 back in the late 90's???? I dunno but I remember a company called Upgrade International now trading on the otc (grey sheets:UPGD) the shares went from 18 cents to $105.00 in a matter of months! The Company claimed to have a patent on a smart card or for them called "Ultra Card" for Visa & Mastercard.The Germans were all over this stock like flies on doo doo.I flew out to San Fran in Feb 2001 and went to visit the facility.I got the whole demonstration on how the Card worked with their own ID chip.The Facility was GIANTIC!! They told me that they expected 2,000 emplyees to be housed their.The rent for the facility was 900k a month and the Company had no $$$$$...They were looking for a private placement at $7.00 and this was way after the shares crashed to $3.00 and was trading at around the $3.00 level while I was visiting.Maybe I would have taken a shot if they were offereing at $1.50 but $7.00!!! I think I still have the prospectous here. Anyway I have one Gold stock Golden Phonex Mining.(OTCBB:GPXM)the shares are around .19 cents and they are up some 100% this month,but I hear it is real so I will just leave that with you.LOL. Keep in touch....Regards
