DRat: No question that a reduced number of BB companies will be a benefit to the survivors - and for obvious reasons. 1.) Less clutter - less divided investment money. 2.) Lower risk - higher number of takers. 3.) Many investors fear the over-inflated NYSE & NASDAQ stocks have become higher risk. The long-depressed small caps (et al) will certainly benefit as their valuations begin to look relatively anemic. This is not to say that all of the remaining BBs will benefit, but certainly, the atmosphere for their success will be far less polluted. Regards, Wally

Dear Drat, Wally said it very well. I would add that this is no panacea, in that companies that want to receive VC funding through the retail public must start/continue ( depending on the company ) treat their financiers with due respect, there has been a dramatic change already when one compares last year to this year, more and more investors will not even touch a company if it is on the OTCBB. It is incumbant to those that remain to give this arena a good name, being fully reporting is not enough IMHO.,, Barbara
