Good positive and informative post, BSD, thanks. My shares of MINE are down, but was able to get them freeriding from the action early on after the ipo so wasn't too worried about 'em moving along with the rest of the Nets lately. Am pleased to opine the timing-is-right for the Name Change to about.com because the MiningCo.com url caused confusion regarding how to reach this fine portal - is it miningcompany.com or is it miningco.com?! Most likely there will be more new hits on About.com because of the simplicity of it; easy to remember, easy to advertise, easy to spell. The ticker change to BOUT could get some new investors attention too, especially if the market goes nicely forward from Today's Close. The Glass Is Half Full IMHO, good luck to us all. Regards, Joana
