Rob, If you will recall the gang at Alexis: -----C. Alexis International-Michael Zapara(74900 Hwy. 111 Suite 123 Indian Wells, Ca 92210)(Jim Grant)(Harry Hanna)(Ed Brody)(Jim Bradley) 1/2/97 Alexis- San Diego (619)773-9227 4/8/97 Alexis (760)773-9227------ Now make a mental note of one Ed Brody I had noticed and saved a post on a S.I. message board concerning Mr.Ed Brody who had, as fate would have it, "worked" for Financial Internet Group (FIG). He was promoting stocks of Joe Lanza who is , himself, a promoter, and apparently quite a suspect individual. I will not reveal the particulars, but a call was placed to Mr. Brody about a stock he was promoting. He asked if the caller "followed S.I." He was very interested in the role S.I. played in the decisions of investor(s) to buy or sell stocks. One can check the S.I. 'people' search engine to find Chief Brody. This very well may be the same guy who appears to be using the S.I. service to short and bash stocks. I would be very happy to expound on why this is relevant to RMIL shareholders and members of S.I., but I believe before I do, Ellen's question about Mr. Kugler should be addressed. He, in my opinion, has his own very defined role in this story. Good Day RBM

Rob, There was a broker who was working with Joe Lanza named Bob Hurd. He worked for Alex Brown. At one point in time ,J.Lanza referred us to Mr.Hurd to use as a broker to buy Xecom (ASTG) stock. Mr. Hurd was asked how his MM operation worked. He was very cautious about telling us anything. Then our caller mentioned that 'Lanza' had referred us. Then Mr. Hurd suddenly became quite gracious and treated our caller like he was member of the "family". He admitted that he had no inventory of ASTG stock. A complete contradiction of what Lanza had implied earlier, that was the reason for going to Mr. Hurd. He supposedely had an inventory of ASTG stock. Mr.Hurd told our contact that he would "sell" him the stock even though he had none to sell. Of course since he was supposedly on the up and up , he told our contact that by the end of the day he would buy the same number of shares he sold us to even things out. It appeared suspicious to all of us. Further questioning of Mr. Hurd revealed "that he might not be able to buy back the shares which he volunteered to 'sell' ". This implied that he would be left with a SHORT position. Mr. Hurd said he intended to buy at a lower price than he sold. Clearly, this is not always possible during the course of the day. Being pressed about this deviation in standard operating procedure....he claimed that "if things just really weren't working out, (in other words he couldn't cover), he would make a call to, none other than , Joe Lanza. About three months ago when we were trying to get a MM to sell us shares of RMIL at $5.00, We called Mr.Hurd, He said he couldn't sell us any RMIL.......he knew of no one that could get their hands on RMIL shares. In my opinion, these individuals, very close to Zapara and Mork, cannot get their hands on RMIL. From here, the story evolves to certain posters RMIL shareholders are very familiar with. This is why Ellen's question about Mr. Kugler is very relevant. The next twist in the story is very interesting. RBM

>>One of my favorite stocks, INFE has been attack by mm's... it is sick. They have done some of the same damn things to the b/a that they did to RMIL way back when.<< If one bought INFE at $.18 even at $1 they are still up 455%, not to shabby. Of course there are some people who got stuck at $5.625. I don't understand why people bitch and moan and complain to the SEC when the price goes down from $5.625 to $1, and try to pin the fault on the MM's. Clearly it must be manipulation. Price goes up from .18 to $5!!!! (lets assume that there was no upward manipulation). That's a ~3000% gain. Who in their right mind wouldn't sell??? How about at $4, $3, $2?? Suppose you bought at $1 (even at $1.50 you'd still have a 50% gain, which is still pretty good. right???). With momentum stocks or for that matter any BB-stock, Jack be Nimble, Jack be quick, hope Jack doesn't get burnt by the candlestick and becomes a long-term investor (not by choice). C'est la vie, C'est la game de BB stocks. Kurt
