Good post PT-Aleta go find Sirk somewhere around the MINE hype and create your illusion over there.

You're not seeing the full picture, Aleta. Let me explain it to you.

That's an awfully grand conspiracy over a little penny stock. The unfortunate part is that even if you're right, to play in this game, one of the rules is bad press hurts. Why else would the whole tech sector suffers if HP announces it's made a profit, just not a big a profit as we hoped? Whether this is right or wrong is irrelevant; investors have to take the press into account.

It is also the kind of language that has hurt innocent investors.

I would think that the language that has hurt NETZ/ZULU investors is the string of "financials due out..." statements that haven't come true yet. If we limit it to SI, sure the naysayers haven't helped. From a personal perspective, what turned me off more (since naysayers a couple of months back were easy to ignore) was the brass band that keeps trumpeting "financials due out this week", and "another great press release [that has nothing to do with ZULU]". We get hyped up for a big event, only to see nothing happen.

ZULU needs to stablize, decide on it's business and show some focus on that business (ie, is it Internet advertising, is it laptops... just pick one and do something.) Sure Rome wasn't built in a day, but they knew they were building a city. With the flood of press releases, ZULU/NETZ seems more interested in building a stock price - we need a company.

I know you made one phone call to the IR and came back with a favorable report. However, I'm willing to bet you were in the midst of a daytrade action when you did same.

You'd lose that bet.

BTW I sent an email off to Mary Conway with the questions that were asked by the Bobz gentleman yesterday. She responded with an email telling me to call. I did and she, ofcourse, stated that she couldn't answer financial questions because the company hasn't released financials yet.

Also I know she reads this thread, because she restated her opinion that I'm a journalist because I write for Silicon Investor. I tried to explain to her again that I write as a private individual not a journalist and she said that question is being answered in court. Sounds like a threat IMO. Next we'll have to worry about stating an opinion on the telephone. LOL!!!

PT what has Hayton and Wired got to do with the fact that the company keeps saying financials will be out soon and soon hasn't come yet? I'm not basing my concerns only on the Wired articles. Yes they are part of it, but not the total picture for me.

There is another way to view this picture. I think all of the speculation is just an attempt by some (not all) current investors to lure unwary investors into this stock so they can unload their shares on them leaving them holding the bag. I don't believe your side is all that altruistic either.

You strung out for months on this thread pretending to be a middle roader, as long as you could. I challenged you on this, and you finally admitted you weren't a middle-roader.

I still consider myself middle of the road. I've stated before and I'll state again that this may have potential if it gets it's act together. You forced the issue for me to choose sides and since I still had concerns I felt it was more fair to a potential investor if I came down on the side of concern then on the side of speculation.

Your credibility as an investor is no more worthy then mine as a none investor. Let's face it if you can get this stock up on speculation alone you stand to make money don't you? Wouldn't it be nice if the company helped by showing the audited financials? Then you wouldn't have to rely on speculation.
