READ only if your are having a bad day... SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT THE NEXT TIME YOU'RE HAVING A BAD DAY (this was an article in the CALIFORNIA EXAMINER, March 20, 1998): Fire Authorities in California found a corpse in a burnt out section of forest while assessing the damage done by a forest fire. The deceased male was dressed in a full wet suit, complete with a dive tank, flippers, and facemask. A post-mortem examination revealed that the person died not from burns but from massive internal injuries. Dental records provided a positive identification. Investigators then set about determining how a fully clad diver ended up in the middle of a forest fire. It was revealed that, on the day of the fire, the person went for a diving trip off the coast--some 20 miles away from the forest. The firefighters, seeking to control the fire as quickly as possible, called in a fleet of helicopters with very large buckets. The buckets were dropped into the ocean for rapid filling, then flown to the forest fire and emptied. You guessed it. One minute our diver was making like Flipper in the Pacific, the next the was doing a breaststroke in a fire bucket 300 feet in the air. Apparently, he extinguished exactly 5'10" of the fire. Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed. STILL THINK YOU'RE HAVING A BAD DAY? THINK AGAIN. The following is taken from a Florida newspaper: A man was working on his motorcycle on his patio and his wife was in the house in the kitchen. The man was racing the engine on the motorcycle and somehow, the motorcycle slipped into gear. The man, still holding the handlebars, was dragged through a glass patio door and along with the motorcycle dumped onto the floor inside the house. The wife, hearing the crash, ran into the dining room, and found her husband laying on the floor, cut and bleeding, the motorcycle laying next to him and the patio door shattered. The wife ran to the phone and summoned an ambulance. Because they lived on a fairly large hill, the wife went down the several flights of long steps to the street to direct the paramedics to her husband. After the ambulance arrived and transported the husband to the hospital, the wife uprighted the motorcycle and pushed it outside. Seeing that gas had spilled on the floor, the wife obtained some paper towels, blotted up the gasoline, and threw the towels in the toilet. The husband was treated at the hospital and was released to come home. After arriving home, he looked at the shattered patio door and the damage done to his motorcycle. He became despondent, went into the bathroom, sat on the toilet and smoked a cigarette. After finishing the cigarette, he flipped it between his legs into the toilet bowl while still seated. The wife, who was in the kitchen, heard a loud explosion and her husband screaming. She ran into the bathroom and found her husband lying on the floor. His trousers had been blown away and he was suffering burns on the buttocks, the back of his legs and his groin. The wife again ran to the phone and called for an ambulance. The same ambulance crew was dispatched and the wife met them at the street. The paramedics loaded the husband on the stretcher and began carrying him to the street. While they were going down the stairs to the street accompanied by the wife, one of the paramedics asked the wife how the husband had burned himself. She told them and the paramedics started laughing so hard, one of them tipped the stretcher and dumped the husband out. He fell down the remaining steps and broke his arm. Now THAT is a bad day...

Well Silver, and the rest of you too, despite the fact that I don't agree with Rosario, I will also defend him as I think that he has a right to speak here too. I believe your group efforts at silencing him are just as wrong headed as his to taunt you. You all have tried a boycott (that was a winner). You all have tried cluttering the thread with meaningless postings and personal attacks. You have ousted someone from your own ranks as near as I can tell for asking questions on her own. Questions incidentally that may lead to actually finding out about what is really going on with this company. So what gives with you people? Is it that you have no soul? Just the blind devotion to seeing this stock's price rise through the suppression of meaningful dialog, if that is what it takes. What truth about this company is so frightening to you that it drives your denial and spurs your mob instincts? You contort yourselves to cling to these little strategic leaks fed to you by the Merv Rosenfeld/jdcpa and the John Schmitz/Barbara Sperino pipelines. You would rather indict others like myself, Rosario, and now it seems you are ready to paint ColleenB, who is rather oddly now thrown to my side of the dialog, and characterized as a Judas. Never mind that there is no direct evidence that the reverse merger has been completed such that any of you are owning shares in anything other than an assetless shell. Just where is your sense of proportion? Just what is it any of you won't do to make a buck here? Aside from trampling on constitutional rights, and denying the legislatively secured rights of the public to know about the financial condition of companies taking advantage of the public markets, you seem equally at home abusing the personal rights of any who would raise questions. So just what are your limits when it comes to making a buck?
