Paul - The internet threads have so little to do with what is happening in the market. I have seen posts like yours a hundred times - People think that a few posts pumped the stock up. I think if you look back closely you will find that the stock was basically well into the .20s before even a handful of posts hadf been put up. We comment on movement and will jump in with little DD - I will not argue that - Fortunately I have had ANC on my radar for some time now and had some knowledge. The P&Ding is being done but it is by phone by the brokers and floor traders in the big houses NOT by a few internet posters.

Paul = We make a commentary on what is going on - we have no idea what is driving this but being at a disadvantage in a severly unleevel playing field we assume that the price movement is idicative of something up as the insider, borkers family and friends load up the truck. Once again - I hope that post to me that srated with the P&D line did not imply that I was P&Ding. I have made many 1000;s posts but please find a P&D post. We are just sepculating and trying to figure out what the buyers know

>>Do some due diligence before you jump in<< I now have what I consider to be a significant holding in this company's stock. I purchased my shares based on my understanding of this area and the potential it offers, and after reading the information which had been culled from many sources and posted on this thread. Let's put aside the potential for data mining and the staggering projections for its usage in the years to come for a second. I want to explain why I jumped in with both feet . . . When a company is able to show consistent progress towards profitability, and the management of that company is continuing to take a larger ownership position over the past year - then that piques my interest. When the company has signed deals with some significant and established businesses, and they are most likely in line for a huge windfall from a court case that they probably will win - then again, my interest is piqued. When the company is currently beta testing new products that will have (in my opinion) a very significant impact on two of the largest software applications on the market today (MS Excel & MS Access) - then that piques my interest. When the stock seems to be grossly undervalued and it is in an area that I feel is one of the potentially most misunderstood yet highest long term growth areas - then my interest is piqued. You can build all the PC's, telephone lines, servers, or virtual companies that you want. But their true potential cannot be realized unless the data that flows through them is understood. In its simplest form, this is what data mining does. We need an edge on our competition, and we have to become efficient to survive in the business world. Information is power, and this company can provide power to those who use it. This is why I bought shares in this company. Anyone, or any organization for that matter, who is manipulating the price may enjoy short term gains. However, I plan to hold my shares for the long term. I plan on doing so because I believe in the future potential of this area, and in this company in particular. And besides, my interest was piqued! Crazy Canuk

Paul, With all due respect, if you are naive enough to thing that this stock was pumped then be it. I have a hard time believing that a person, especially a retail investor, can manipulate a stock. If there is some manipulation going on, I would put my money on the big boys or maybe even management. How many times have you seen some houses drop the price in order to get a couple crosses across? Don't you think that most of the longs panic seeing their investment go down the drain and decide to cut their losses only to see the price bounce back up once the crosses are done with? How about management trying to lower or to keep the stock price at a certain level to benefit from some options or to allow a PP to take place at said level? What Keith posted on this thread was some excellent DD. If half the people on SI did that type of research before jumping in a stock, then we would all benefit from the outcome. He was generous enough to share what he found with this thread. That must say something about the individual. Now, if it was pumped, would the stock be at these levels right now? If I am not mistaken Paul, our roads have crossed on the Pyng thread. For what it's worth, I will tell you this: Keith is not a P&D. I'll go even further and put my credibility on the line if such is the case. Kind Regards AK
