If you look at the posts from VBroady on Raging Bull you will see a very interesting pattern. The company announced on September 8 that they declined the offer, but on September 10th the following post was made on Raging Bull. By: Vbroady Reply To: None Thursday, 10 Sep 1998 , 7:56 PM EDT Post # of 37 I am as greedy as all of you put together, but what is WRONG with the company declining the .37 offer if they believe the stock is worth much more, even in the short term (2-3 months)?? Sure, going from .09 to .05 during this process hurts, but WHAT IF they are right (worth a lot more), get another, much larger offer; stock prices climb on merit / metal prices actually rising for the first time in a long time..... So you bought at .09 and now your pissed because the buy-out didn't happen and you're at .04?? Will you be happy in six months when the stock is $1? Not if you jump off now. Selling now will be the worst stock mistake you make this year, period. (Voluntary Disclosure: Position- long; ST Rating- strong buy; LT Rating- buy)

Follow-up. Then 24 hours later VBroady posts this message. By: Vbroady Reply To: None Friday, 11 Sep 1998 , 8:34 PM EDT Post # of 37 Not just greedy, but trusting ........ How can I delete my last post!! Just dumb. First, my position is unchanged -- Not trying to hype, then bash. Check my history (posts on this and other boards). IDCN -- just another bad choice I made in my sinking '98 portfolio. Have not sold any stock. Didn't do my homework on this one ..... closed my mind to all the negative comments on the SI and other boards ... believed they were paid bashers. Not so. This company and its principals are just plain shameless. To wit: The bullst offer ... a set up to get the stock a boost long enough to pull in some suckers, like myself. I was slightly suspicious at first; offer looked like it was written by a $5/hr receptionist. Someone at ICDN has a buddy/contacts are CMI, count on it. Why was ICDN so upset at investors that called CMI, AFTER the offer fell through to check on the validility of the offer?? The Nov "in the wings" customer .. more bull. Suddenly, now, ICDN cannot supply this potential ghost customer Granite ... yeah right. The property/mining "just to good to sell," but they'll dish out 4mill to an informed, weathy investor for .04 share.... wake up (I'm trying!!!) However, ICDN would not BUY-back at the $4 level -- why?? -- because you can expect a poor essay report late Sept - a sad picture -- to drop the stock down to YR low of .01 or lower!! Then, watch ICDN step in for their 10 million share buyback. Hello!! Expect a reverse split to keep the stock tradeable. Why the stall on the testing/blasting now?? IDCN is timing their buyback. "There were hunters in the area and we couldn't blast safely. Come on!!! Any one here hunt or have you been around a pending blast area ?? -- lots of noise, warning markers, soundtimes warning sirens, etc. Sorry, no hunters or Bambi for hundreds of yards. A lot of people (ahem :( ) bought this stock at $9-11 when the bullst offer was posted. By the way, and of course, no votes were made, etc, suckers were kept in the dark through the whole process. At least the stock is still in the 4.5 - 5.5 range, not a complete washout. Dunces like myself will hold it to the 5-7 range over the next two weeks, then the "unexpected bad news / essay" drop. I'm selling early next week, whatever it takes. May even play along again with these turkeys and buy back in at a penny, so of course, ICDN will then have HAPPY news (after their buy-back) to get the stock back up to 10-11. Someday, I want to be more bulletproof and less prone to go for these manipulations. Obviously, there are a lot of SMART investors who saw the offer of .37 (when stock was .09), saw the scam for what is, and passed on it. Stock never made any real gains, whatsoever. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. I feel sorry for those who have any faith left in IDCN -- some of them (especially SS on SI board) are obviously very sincere. I just hope that these good people realize that they had better roll with the IDCN plan or jump. All IMOO. DD. PS - At least my second worst disappointment this year - PLC - has/had straight-dealing people behind it.

Lastly. Why would VBroady change his thinking so quickly? What happened during that one day? The company presented nothing new. VBroady is like a lot of people on these threads. They have itchy trigger fingers. He wasn't comfortable with his position and decided to sell. Now he is on a vendetta to make sure that the rest of us go down the tubes like he did. He is trying to gain some satisfaction out of his loss by watching other people lose as well. If this happens do not think for a second that he will not gloat about it. VBroady: Take your loss and move on. We do not need to hear your position over and over. We are well aware of your standing. GG
