TideGlider,

I am not a youngster. Actually I am 45 years old.

I have lived my life believing that the only person I can truly trust is myself, (and then only about 1/2 the time) ;-)

I have been told that it is sad that I make statements like that.

There are people that believe anyone and everyone, and to me, that seems very unfortunate.

I agree about the 'pump and dump' people.
I also agree with the statement about the 'stock touts' and bashers.
I find it sad that in most cases, these people are free to continue to do what they do. And in the majority of cases that are actually publicized, the fines seem to me to be 'merely a drop in the bucket'.

You may have noticed that I have not, and will not, mention any stock that I own, have owned, or may plan on owning. I am not going to 'tout' or 'bash' any stock.

John
