G, Aren't we under 50 cents or did I read my Stockwatch summary wrong? I think the idea here is: if a stock is selling for under 50 cents, it may be a prime target for a significant rise in price...hence TREMENDOUS PROFIT POTENTIAL... remember BNTI, WAST, and PYOC??? Later...Gator

Good evening, GYoung. Thank-you for your question/comment. The fact that recent posts have been taking place at the <.50 is not relevant. Why? Firstly, with respect to SYD, we did not have the authorization to make comments on behalf of the company until this afternoon. As such, we could not be active on the SYD thread. Secondly, with rare exception, most small-cap threads are very quiet as investors patiently wait for investments made in 1997 to recover, or perhaps even turn some profits. This should be of comfort to most because this goes a long way to prove we are not "promoters" in the real and ugly meaning of the word. That is, if we were promoters, we would be on the threads stating "Hey, looks like the charts are showing a move upwards, if you don't buy now, you'll miss the boat." Fortunately, this has never been and will never be our role. Thus, we are content with accepting that companies can not be consistently active throughout the year. There will be quiet times as companies go about their business and then there will be busy times as the results of their labour either succeed or fail. At the very least, when we have something to post, there is some scarcity value as opposed to a flood of meaningless messages that cause investors to tune out. Finally, we like to have fun just like all the rest of you. The thread run by Ed Pakstas is active, well run and fun. Most importantly, it gives us an opportunity to put our money where our mouth is and we have had 2 picks in their top 10 pretty consistently over the last month. In fact, as we watched SYD float to .50, we made sure to claim it as our pick as soon as it hit the number. At the very least, that attention brings some small value to all of us. Hope we answered your question to your satisfaction. Regards, Agora Internet Relations Corp. ----------------------------
