Jon, After thinking more about what I just said to you why not try this out? Forget the apology to me. Instead, in future posts especially to those new to this thread, tell them at the start that the company has been in business for X number of years. (I think since 1995) And, the company has been traded publicly for X years. (Perhaps since 1995) And, the company has never seen fit to prepare any financial statements for 1995, 1996, or 1997. But, now it is in the process of preparing financial statements for 1998. And, perhaps they may be ready before July, 1999 or any other time that you wish to insert. And, that when the company is ready to publish those statements for the investing public to see, they will so do. Until then, new investors should just take it on faith that everything is great, fantastic, fantabulous. TRUST ME!!!! Since you decided to make the analogy with blue chip stocks, I will use that analogy. Just suppose that any blue chip stock you wish to pick, say IBM, makes these kinds of statements to its investors. Do you think that all of IBM's investors would say, "Oh ok, we don't really want to know how you are doing, you are IBM"? Perhaps they would say that. Maybe they wouldn't be so reasonable and understanding. Now, just because I ask about financial statements, you have decided to totally misrepresent what I have said on this thread. If I am the only one on this thread who wants to know about how the company has performed from reading past financial statements, then so be it. I don't even want to know about 1998. How about 1995, 1996, or 1997? Is this unreasonable to want to know? You just think it is horrible of me to ask any questions. You have in a prior post totally misrepresented what I have said about financial statements. Why???????????????????? What is there to hide????????????? Vic
