No no...Steven.... I am not bitter...but perhaps it seems that way.... I simply want to ....make sure....beginning penny stock investors...realize what they are doing... with the majority of these BB/Penny stocks...the game is to get in....as early as possible... watch the hypers....then try to time it so you hop out..at the top... or at least before it quickly bottoms.... I am not interested in investing in penny stocks.... I did one....not realizing..what the game was...(laugh...which goes to show you...how effective the hyping can be on folks..not expecting it...!!)... and then once I got the lay of the land....I hopped out.. Now ...I could have just sat...and waited for it to "pop up"..but no......I wanted out.... but I understand those of you....who play this "momentum game"... no problem...play it...enjoy it...just understand...that some people need to learn...what the "deal" is..... kinda levels the "playing field" a bit....which I know makes some of the players anxious....since they are counting...on the newbies...to line their pockets.... short term....hey....skies the limit! smile....Mary

Let me quote from another thread: anthony investigations: "I don't think you understand how this game works. USAT did a 1000-1 reverse split a bit ago - essentially eliminating all old shareholders in the shell company. They then issued themselves new shares for bring assets into the company, or for services as consultants employees etc. The "players" essentially then own all of the public float in the company. All large blocks are controlled by the players. Thus the price of the stock is easily manipulated. The "players" then sell their stock <at these high prices> to new investors that buy based on various BS press releases the players put out. Just because they filed to register this new stock means nadda to the float. The "players" control these shares as well as all other major blocks of stock in the company. The public float thus looks big but really is not. Hope that helps All comments IMO" from Steve
