[[Went to Blacks the other day.....]]

Just remember that cold Pacific water this time of year causes certain parts of the male anatomy to temporarily shrink... <grin>

In case you are interested in the methodology I used to come up with that list of OTC BB stocks to watch, here's the criteria:

(1) The stocks had to be among the 100 with the highest volume for the sample period (November 1998). I wasn't interested in the 100 with the highest dollar value, because I was looking for quantities of shares being acquired cheaply by possible market manipulators.

(2) I eliminated securities with 5 letter ticker symbols, because the 5th letter indicates special situations, such as 'Q' for companies in bankruptcy, 'F' for foreign shares, etc.

(3) I further narrowed the list down to companies that don't report to the SEC, because more shenanigans can be pulled with such stocks.

(4) I then got rid of stocks that have threads here on SI, because I wanted to remove shares that might already be in the process of being hyped. (It's more important to think about what could be hyped in the future, and buy them cheaply now.)

Ooops -- I forgot to mention in my previous message about OTC BB companies whose stock is being quietly acquired before the hype starts, that one of the companies (PAYP) is in the same field as DGIV (Voice-over-IP (VoIP) Internet telephony).
