It would be fraudulent if they didn't issue a retraction, which was to correct "second quarter" to read "third quarter". Seeing that they did issue it, I don't see anything fraudulent here. Zap will report their earnings on July 30, the end of their third quarter. tfk

Hey Ken, now you're starting to show your true colors. You sound desperate. You know there was a misprint... ZAP'S 3rd Quarter Ends 6/30/ 98 ****Zapata fiscal year ends 9/30/98 The news reported 2nd quarter, it should say 3rd quarter. because for Zap it is the 3rd quarter ending JUNE 30 IF YOU DON'T GET IT, SEPTEMBER 1998 WILL BE THE 4TH QUARTER. ZAPATA FISCAL YEAR ENDS 9/30/1998*************CAPISH!!!

KEN,NEWS BYTES IS WRONG. IT is not their 2nd quarter ending .. Their fiscal year ends 9/30/98 so their third quarter ends 6/30/98... All it was was a typo on Zapata's earlier press release. They meant to say 3rd quarter ending 6/30/98 not 3rd quarter ending 9/30/98. So the actual best quarter in 45 years still ended 6/30/98. You probably already know this, but this is for you and the others that might not know. MYWAYNY

Ken, Let's get real here! The error in the heading that you call "fraud" was nothing more than a TYPO. No reasonable person would agree with you that this is "fraud" and "phony news". You have made so many other ridiculous claims over the past week that I can't even begin to address them all. I don't have a problem with shorts but I do have a problem with your cocky and irresponsible postings. The real issue here is that you are a very desperate, biased short seller and either won't look at ZAP objectively or are afraid to post that you agree with certain things because you think it will undermine your position. Let me tell you something bud, I have posted many negative comments about stocks that I am long. I call it like I see it no matter what my position is in a stock. That's the only way to earn credibility and your credibility is unquestionably shot. "NEXT"!
