Been a reader of SI for quite awhile now. Am trying out the free trial subscription. Like most of you I'm now just watching and hoping for events to unfold. Things are looking good for the moment.
I appreciate all the good information I have learned from reading your posts....especially The Alaskan and Shazyashyi. Thank you all for helping me become a more aware investor.
Some of you might know me....I am lostwombat on Yahoo. I also appreciate that the tone of posters, both positive and negative, is so much more civil here than I've been used to.
Guess wherever one goes to a message board with a stock carrying great interest, there will be those who try to disrupt the flow of ideas with rumour and half truths. Be happy you guys only have Dan to contend with. He is much too silly to be taken seriously at all. The Nays I'm used to are much more brutal and relentless.

I laughed when I visited Dan's thread and saw him touting a MLM company. Maybe he can use his website in Hays as an outlet to market power bars, vitamins, or whatever they sell.
Hey, Dan....I hear AMWAY-JAPAN is real hot now too...or maybe USANA is more to your liking.

Having read your many pearls of wisdom and witnessed your sense of humor, know that I mean no malice toward you or what you stand for...just the opposite, I find you very entertaining and I thank you.

Having vented a little bit, I'll step back into the shadows and try not to waste bandwidth unless I have something constructive to say.

Michael

EXCHANGE COMMISSION:

U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Washington, D.C.
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

RELEASE NO. 39749/ March 13, 1998

The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the temporary suspension,
pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act"), of over-the-counter trading of the securities of International Heritage, Inc.
("IHIN"), a Raleigh, North Carolina company which holds itself out to be a direct sales
organization selling various products, including lines of expensive jewelry, collectibles,
luggage, golf equipment and long distance service, from 1:00 P.M. EST, March 13,
1998 through 11:59 P.M. EST, on March 26, 1998.

The Commission temporarily suspended trading in the securities of IHIN because of
questions regarding the accuracy of statements concerning, among other things, the
return investors could expect to receive on their investment, the regulatory background
of the company and the background of its president.

The Commission cautions broker-dealers, shareholders, and prospective purchasers
that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other
currently available information and any information subsequently issued by IHIN.

The Commission cautions broker-dealers, shareholders, and prospective purchasers
that they should carefully consider the foregoing information along with all other
currently available information and any information subsequently issued by the
company.

Further, brokers and dealers should be alert to the fact that, pursuant to Rule 15c2-11
under the Exchange Act, at the termination of the trading suspension, no quotation may
be entered unless and until they have strictly complied with all of the provisions of the
rule. If any broker of dealer has any questions as to whether or not he has complied
with the rule, he should not enter any quotation but immediately contact the staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission in Washington, D.C. If any broker or dealer is
uncertain as to what is required by Rule 15c2-11, he should refrain from entering
quotations relating to IHIN's securities until such time as he has familiarized himself with
the rule and is certain that all of its provisions have been met. If any broker or dealer
enters any quotation which is in violation of the rule, the Commission will consider the
need for prompt enforcement action.

If any broker-dealer or other person has any information which may relate to this
matter, please contact Jay Perlman of the Division of Enforcement of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission at (202)942-4867.

He walks into the room, clothes tattered and worn. He draws a chair up to the table, sets down slowly and says, "Excuse me folks, while I catch my breath."

He lifts his eyes and scans the room slowly. He knows all eyes are on him as he rises to his feet. He looks them in the eye and says, "And that my friends is a demonstration of the power of the SEC's sword." "Watch and ye shall learn."

The crowd breaks out in jeers and cheers, someone cries, "Sit down and shut up". Another shouts, "Go on, get out of here!"

He turns to the person and says, "The only difference between BAAT and IHIN is that IHIN filed with the SEC".
