Mr. Goodman You said that at .80. I asked you then if it was not a call to us boys to go 'Over the Top', to charge the barbed wire fences and lay down our lives for those to follow; all in the name of the Fatherland/Motherland/good ole US of A/Sweet Canada...man I didn't listen, I couln't, I already went! And I'm out here in no mans land with the Fkin 88's dropin in and blowin the hell out of every frigin livin thing stupid enough to believe. But I've been buying again; only because I can not help but average down a bit. You got to have been insane to hold averages I do. But my feeling is that the little guys, the fellows who are watching can get on board anytime they want. The conductor and the Engineer run the train and they are off having some beers and contemplating going up to the rooms with some of the pretty hostesses. Hell man they can afford it they have all our money! I suggest you tune into the Yamana thread to see how an IR person should be conducting himself in this day and age. I don't care if the fellows at Paramount are not paid properly, I don't care if they are hurting like us, I just am tired of being sold of bill of goods and getting no good information. You give me information, good information, and I'll promote the damn company! I've learned one thing by doing this investment in paramount. It doesn't matter how much money one has or who ones friends are, one can always be pretty fu_king dumb! I still hold, and I still hope. But this latest BS is really depressing. There is no deal. There is not even a name. There is not a damn thing to show for all that 'The Trip' stuff. So why talk it up like that? Is this a used car? Are we selling vacume cleaners? What happened here? It was a total public relations blunder. A disaster. A complete and utter failure in promotion of the company. With all the money this firm is supposed to have it should be starting to think about investing some in its promotional activities. Why? Because the burn rate is not particularly low and they are going to have to go and borrow money again. And what? They are going to do it at .60/share? And who gets to play Shafted? You and Me. We do a major funding and the stock goes to .30!!!. Am I wrong? Isn't this the trend in this kind of venture? If we dilute will we not see a drop in value per share? Mr. Goodman, and all you others who have the ear of management. Why can we not get these people to realize that they are killing us? Why can we not get some real IR and get the price of the stock up? This is not Promotion, it is just damn good business! We are going to need money and we better have a share price above a buck fifty if we are going to be be able to do it with any kind of finesse. So the next time you talk to Paul, why don't you say 'Hey Paul, we need some good IR. We need to get the share price up because it is just good business.' Please excuse the long comments. None of them were directed specifically to you Mr. Goodman. I still just prefer to cowhand and somebody has to lead; besides its my favorite metaphor. regards, mnmuench
