PitBull........ I don't remember back in 1996 if they announced the split. I also don't know if Santa or Roberta are on SI because of all the aliases on Yahoo. I also don't have a clue how Roberta found out the symbol so early but I know she seems to follow very closely, Top Dog and LRacco. I just hope all of this is a bad dream but I fear the worst tomorrow. I find it hard to believe the OTCBB page was a misprint. If it was they should be held accountable. I dread that Altomare with a low outstanding share count is going to start offering stock in his new endeavor Universal Express to close some of his deals. He has nothing to lose by offering stock and previous investors will be left holding the bag. If you average .06 share, however, you only need $4.20 to break even. Since I average .25 after suffering through the other reverse split, USXP has to reach $17.50 for me to break even. For those of you who don't care for me, I know this will provide you with a good laugh...At least I didn't sell my shares through all of this. I figured most of my money was shot so why not the whole thing? The outstanding shares were 9 million in January 1998 and less last year. Look how they grew to 37 million or perhaps 100,000,000 million. If Altomare planned this and now he is free to expand Universal Express at our expense he should be held accountable. Just watch the share count in USXP grow as he closes his new deals at our expense. For once I hope I am wrong. Lakers

Pitbull: I am the one who questioned Lakers this weekend about his claim that USXP would be the new symbol for PKGP. I mentioned in my post to him that the only other person who had used it previously, TO MY KNOWLEDGE, was Roberta, on the Yahoo thread. She used it within the last 10 days. In fact, I was so intrigued by her use of THAT symbol, I made a note of it on the pad by my computer. When Lakers used it, it caught my attention. That was before USXP was announced as the new symbol. I took Lakers to task for his use of the symbol, that he was implying some kind of inside information, and, obviously, he was right, and I was wrong. I am familiar with the name Santa, but I haven't seen it in several weeks, as a poster on Yahoo. There has been a lot of discussion about Santa, Roberta and others being one and the same, but I didn't take it too seriously, as is my habit with most Yahoo posts. To be more specific, Santa and Roberta are Yahoo posters, not SI. I have read EVERY post on Yahoo and SI regarding PKGP. Can't remember them all, but I do have fairly good recall. BTW, I have been through one reverse split (and I hate them). It was announced well in advance of the actual deed. To give credit where credit is due, Lakers first brought up the subject of an RS in one or two of his earlier posts. I just didn't even want to think about it then. My eyes are wide open with continuing wonder and amusement, I am committed to hanging on with this stock to the bitter end (my grandfather was an engineer with Norwegian America Lines in 1912, plying the same route as the Titanic, so it's in my genes), and I'm taking my shares long. I've made some friends, more enemies, and no money on this stock, so far, but ain't this the damnedest thread you've ever seen?
