Well, that makes two of us who don't have any good answers. <G> I know that I got taken in, and while I feel a bit foolish, I realize it was because I wanted to believe the story, despite all the cooler heads here that warned against it. So, "buyer beware" is right! But, the blame doesn't lie with the web sites, IMO. I would really hate to see any kind of "truth detection" on any of the boards in the interest of "protecting" the poor stupid public. I pays my money, and I takes my chances -- I don't want any "regulation" to protect me from my own greed. And, I don't want chat rooms censored. The best thing about the net is that it is so wide open. If regulation is needed, it is a rewrite of the regulations covering market makers and their ability to cheat investors. But, that's a whole new subject... jim
