Good evening Markus, You have made a lot of assumptions in your post I tried the J.Bench and K.Griffey Jr. sections out ... They work just fine. We here accept your apology. Assumption number one - that there will ever be an apology to accept. This is what I said. That site just crashed my computer - really, the blue screen of death. Maybe it was just the computer. It did it again, twice. Don't try to buy the Ken Griffey thing or the Johnny Bench thing. At least I saved this word doc after the first time. Well, I am on a different computer now. I revisited site and my computer didn't crash but my browser did. Here is the error message I got when I clicked "buy me" in order to see the Ken Griffey caricature with the facsimile signature price. JavaScript Error: rodeoisland.com, line 31: illegal URL method 'file:'. Hit the OK button (three times) and the dialog box went away and I clicked the back button of the browser and was back to the art catalog. Then I went to the Johnny Bench caricature with the facsimile signature and I got this error: JavaScript Error: rodeoisland.com, line 31: illegal URL method 'file:'. Hit the OK button three times and the dialog box went away and immediately reappeared. Only way I could get rid of it was to CTRL-ALT-DEL and end the task which blew away the browser, of course. So you may want to tell the HTML boys at ABFG or wherever that they have a problem in one of their Java scripts. If you want to pass on some trouble shooting info, at work, where the whole PC crashed, I was running Win98 and IE4.5. At home, I useWin95 and Netscape Communicator v4.something. Oh, I was able to see the price of the limited edition athlete caricatures with the facsimile signatures - 49.99 or 49.95. Good deal. Sell all those and that's a cool million+ to ABFG right there. I do have a few applications, notably the MS office toolbar, that are running on both computers. So the applet could have interacted badly with them. Also, both computers are Compaqs - if that is of any help in duplicating the problem. You bashed this company and mislead readers. Especially at the end where you admit you never waste your time on non-reporting companies. Obviously , you set out to mislead and bash this company. Assumption or accusation #2 (redundantly stated) - I was trying to mislead. I was trying to be up front and indicate my predisposition against investing in OTC:BB's. That is called being honest or disclosure in stock speak. That is also why I stated in the beginning (in bold no less) that this was an opinion and that the premise was that I had to invest in an OTC:BB. I make more on non-reporting companies than you obviously make in a year. Assumption #3. How do you know what I make dude? Ah, you don't know, that's the answer. You are uneducated in investing in BB's if you have such a hard time with them. Assumption #4 Because I don't invest in the OTC:BB now, I never did. Wrong. Bought a few in '96. One did well. One did nothing. One lost half. I had to sign the little paper from the broker swearing he didn't recommend the stock and everything. The reason I even included this history was to prevent you from drawing the conclusion that I was embittered from a loss. I even stated the enormously quick profit potential for illiquid stocks. BUY low Sell HIGH Thanks, that's good advice. I found you article coming from a very inexperienced opinion. Spell checker doesn't catch everything, does it? The only spam was your worthless article. I only posted it once. Well, Mr. King. Thanks for contributing that the Johnny Bench thingie and the Ken Griffey thingie work fine on your computer. You should pass on the make, OS and browser of your computer to the HTML boys at ABFG or wherever. That should help them get a handle on the problem. In spite of your erudite post, I have not changed my opinion on ABFG. There are questions about its management, assets and business plan that haven't been answered. Like I said before, money can be made in this stock and I would never short it. Good luck. Have a great weekend yourself, Richard
