Good Doctor, Thank you for that superb reply! That is just the kind of feedback I was hoping to receive and use for contemplation. I have printed out your post and want to study it some more. I think that your suggestion to put more focus on the reporting aspect of a company is right on the money. Perhaps that's why I unconsciously view fully-listed stocks as less risky, because I know that they have to be fully reporting. As you can imagine, many of the 140 BB stocks I followed this past year (if not about all of them!!) were not reporting companies. I guess I'm a real novice after all. Sure enough, I've lost thousands playing the OTCs this past summer. Anyway, my main point was to say your reply was fantastic and I appreciate it very much. Also, look for my own contribution on the "OTC sewer" thread you introduced me to. What a hilarious thread! (And with all my losses playing the OTCs, I can relate to it!). Take care, Chris
