Mr. Metals, a lot of us have been saying similar comments for days and days. You have got to realize that there are always a percentage who are Chicken Littles. They just can't help themselves. You see, if they throw out negative possibilities, then in the highly unlikely event they come true, they get to play you the "I Told You So" record (with much delight, I might add). Watch out, in the meantime, they will also try to sell you an umbrella to deflect the falling sky(alternate stock pick, etc.). Their glass is half empty, our glass is half full! Pessimists by nature can't understand optimists. Why have fun when you can be miserable, instead?

Metals, We aren't on the NASDAQ yet. But i agree that the SEC could have stepped at anytime after the press release concerning the reports content as i also think they are watching proceedings very closely. Long and strong, Jay

Your comments: "This company is under a microscope with the SEC & NASDAQ. Now, do you really think they would of let MINE continue to trade if they were a scam. Also, they would of made MINE retract their NR if they had any questions/doubts regarding the content of the release." Many people are putting faith in the fact that a News Release has been allowed. Perhaps it should be, but you were quite active on the IPM thread and probably know the story much better than I. However the following is from that company's own release: "The de-listing proceeding was commenced because the Nasdaq staff raised questions regarding the adequacy of certain press releases by IPM during an approximately 1 1/2 year period ending November 14, 1997. The Board of Directors vigorously contested the Nasdaq allegations on the basis that there was a clear lack of understanding by the Nasdaq staff, not only of the stages of mineral exploration and research and development, but also specifically that IPM has discovered a new type of precious metals deposit. " It took Nasdaq more than 1 1/2 years to put the brakes on IPM. I don't mean to rain on the parade but I am not sure that the fact that an uncontested news release from one week ago is proof positive that it is factual in it's entirety. It took the TSE quite some time to stop Bre-x. I am "not" making a comparison just stating the fact that regulators are quite often tardy. Otherwise there would never be scams.
