I think you missed something in my reply to Tap --- I tend to agree w/ what he posted. Yet, at the same time, the recent PR which came out under EMF's handle w/ quotes from several people included one which had the title of Chief Compliance Officer!
I worked for a major broker ---- CCO's tend to not toss bullshit around or even randomly add their name to false or erroneous news releases.
For most, a phone call cost nothing but time ---- I guess the lazy folk could care less.
