Mike, He was being somewhat aggressive on IRC the other night as well. Unfortunate.... :0| Misplaced anger, but understandable as I have been there myself. I have a sense that the SEC "did" approach RMIL with Kid's Glove, as indicated by postings that they had "visited" the company's offices on a fact-finding mission well before the eventual trading halt. The fact that the misrepresentative (fraudulent?) press releases were out for so long before the SEC finally halted the stock would lead a logical person to believe that wanted an air-tight case before moving forward. I may be wrong. But then again, I may be right. For the innocents who believed in the wild claims of the Cartel Ringleaders, I hope that I'm wrong. I really do. I would like to think that this company is just "misunderstood" and has the potential that Riley, Pugs, and Shades seem to believe it has. Mtnres... I have been there, and I have also felt anger towards the SEC for acting in a way that I thought rash. However, they have a role to play and their understaffed, overworked, and I think they are finally coming to grips with how much of a "Wild West" really exists here on the Internet. And it explains my view on self-policing activities by Nay-Sayers, solicited or not. Since they can't do it, all of us have to. Mike , you have brought some invaluable information to light about RMIL and its operations and I give you credit for your diligence. We all have our reasons for being here, and until proven otherwise, I will continue to believe you are here for the same reasons that I am, and not as an agent of some interested party in this stock. Regards, Ron
