Thermotek International Inc. going public this week or next.
Coming out around .25 . The company has a patented process that
converts municipal waste to oil,charcoal and electricity.
Thermotek is currently working on it's first acquisition, a 20 year
old company doing business with such companies a
Westinghouse,Honeywell,Mobil DeSota Chemical ,and a host of
other fortune 500 companies.>

Hummm, interesting that a company that is connected to such high profile companies and it does not think it is worth more than .25!

I smell a fish story here for sure...

Thanks, Jan Mike. We can enter it next year. Find me an entry for this year's contest. Tip....do a full-text search on key words like:
scam hoax sham bunko rip-off robbed etc.

That will often take you to threads on SI where people are talking about dubious companies. From there you could find some contest entries.

Only 3 weeks to go. Had PRFM done better yesterday, I would have attended the Grammys in LA...would have had to move the night of our Scammys....but yesterday was the last day for responding to invitations, so we are definitely ON for Feb 24 Scammy Awards.

Still a few catagories without nominations.
