You are not selling your OIL stocks ? <- (one)
ohoh
Mercy mercy me
Things ain't what they used to be.


Mr. Abolafia, and most of the rest of the world seem to get the joke, so what isn't funny. Well, he isn't being sued by the IEEE, in fact he mentions the IEEE again. In fact, he appears to be using Business Wire to advertise his website and services.
Is his product actually available ? Can someone lose money by reading his release. If Mr. Abolafia had a little box to take your name and Email address, surely he would be sued ??????

Executive Memo
Has FBN approached Mr. Abolafia about joining the Research Group ?
