lester, thanks. you are absolutely right about putting money in pink sheets. i knew of the chances that i was taking when i bought into this one and was hoping for a more positive outcome. fortunately for me, my position in Goldspring is small and after the R/S those holdings will be miniscule. congrats to you and all others who've gained from gspg. averaging down for me is out of the question; i did that and the s/p spiral continued. of course this company will probably get it's feet under it and take off, just because i will not put any more into it. [one of those wish i hadda instances; consider it a favor. LOL] i'll continue to follow this one from time to time. gltya.
hi all. this is my second or third post here. i am shocked that this company is still breathing. i am a bag-holder of this stock and don't imagine i'll ever get a return on my investment. i stopped following this company nearly a year ago, and thought i'd peek at this board today to see what discussions are ongoing. as of now, my gspg holdings are down 98%. i calculated, that in order for my holdings to GAIN to an investment return of 0, the stock has to gain 4,559.999% from a price of 0.0125 per share. imagine a return like that! that is what i was anticipating when i got in on this one; well not 4,000% but maybe 2 or 3 hundred percent. those of you who got in at these basement lows, more power to you. this company might make some positive gains, going forward, but i do not expect it to recover to past levels; especially with a R/S pending. GL to those of you that got in at sub-penny. don't hold on to this one too long. TAKE YOUR MONEY AND RUN or FLIP. i'm sure that some of you have done pretty good for yourselves during this present run up. timing is everything, obviously, but didn't work for me in this instance. gspg was a gamble i took, and lost. best regards.

tedpeele, your statements are absolutely correct, in my eye, and "Investing in a [concept] without a sense of value is COMPLETELY shooting in the dark". I agree, anyone invested in this company at this stage is shooting in the dark and taking his or her chances. This is a speculative play for me as well as for many others on this board. That is the chance that one takes with a speculative play, especially .pk stocks. Who knows? This play might pan out quite favorably for those who decided to take the chance with LYJN; maybe it won't. I guess time will tell. Best regards.

this company is the EPITOME of a SCAM. lesson learned here on my part, i hope, from playing these pink sheets. let's see: first a 500,000:1 RS; now a 100,000:1 RS. the value of my holdings in this company can not even be measured on the NANOMETER scale. sheesh, i wish that i at least had my original stock certificates to look at, or, maybe start a fire in the fireplace with them. anyway, this has been quite a ride, which i hope to never experience again. at least not to this degree. i went to the doc's office for a physical a few weeks ago... at least the physician used a glove and lubricant before i got poked. most of you have been left bag-holders. this company took my damn bag and all. whew!!! at least this was a small holding. gltya. this concludes my editorial.
ps: i hope i'm not out of line with the board. i guess my post is somewhat OT. my apology, if necessary.
glow_beatle, in wishing GLTYA, that was meant in health and spirit, especially during the holiday season. As for the bashers of this company, good luck on their part would mean the demise of GlobeTel; heaven forbid! Their antics toward GTEM are reprehensible. ...just meant for the post to be positive to all. regards.
There is a definite Air of Intrigue associated with the name GlobeTel, IMO. The company has endured relentless attacks regarding its legitimacy (being labeled as a scam) and attempts of industrial sabotage have been uncovered. How can any company take on the number of skirmishes that GTEM has and continue to survive? A multitude of attacks have come from some big media players, but yet this small start-up continues on. The reason I am staying on is because some of the past and present high profile GlobeTel players who have allowed their names to be associated with the company: NASA, U.S. Dept. of Defense, U.S. Forest Service, Raytheon, Elisra, University of Stuttgart, Kashiwabara Token, Dr. Alice Muntz, J. Randolph Dumas, Sir Christopher Meyers - who happened to confer with George W. and Tony Blair in meetings leading to the Iraq War, and many others. Does anyone think it's in the best interest of these entities and individuals to allow their names to be ridiculed through association with a scam? I think not, and that's why I continue to hold GTEM.pk. Despite the many trials and tribulations that GTEM has encountered, it's still breathing. Why? Many a company would have become an after-thought a long time ago following the number of relentless attacks directed at GTEM. Hidden funding sources (IMHO) have kept this company afloat; otherwise how does it continue to survive? Nilremerlin has made reference to Illuminati. I deifinitely consider it a possibility, in reference to that Air of Intrigue. Sorry for my long winded post. I just don't know how express my thoughts in a condensed manner. GLTYA; even the bashers and naysayers.

vkoenig: Granted, your design was scrapped and deemed flawed. Did you ever receive word or hear chatter of the alleged flaws. What i found to be the most disturbing was that the Strat1 was never put through the trials that are typical with most R&D projects. Did anyone (your adversaries) prove the existence of flaws? As an investor, I would have liked to have been told that the Strat1 was put to flight and failed its tests; then scrapped! I never heard one way or the other, except, that your design won't work. It would have been nice to find out what went wrong, if anything did. Thanks.

Crash: I'm not trying to create doom and gloom as you call it. I've worked at companies where worse things than that have happened. I recall a time where I saw top drawer Borg-Warner executives being led away in handcuffs - after trying to price fix Cycolac plastic (now commonly called ABS).
GTE is going to have to remove the deadwood now and streamline operations. That's all there is to it. They can no longer continue along the same old path. GTE now has to cull the herd, so to speak.

Hi all. This is my first post here. I am a GSPG bagholder and too ashamed to admit how long I've been in this stock. FYI, I decided to buy during Steve Parents' reign. Oops, I've given it away about how long I've been here. It's not my intention to bash this company. Just be prepared to sell, remove your starting funds, when you have the chance to and play with the rest. For me, my investment here is money spent; nothing in return; down %99.74. I don't expect to ever recover from this one. In all likelihood, before any real positive development with GSPG, I expect there to be a RS with this company. At the present time, this company's stock is perfect for flipping, for there is plenty room for multiple %100 gains. Just don't think too long about it. The largest shareholder in the company is still Steve Parent at 44.6 million shares. But guess how much it's worth: $66,919.125 at the current pps. Oh by the way, "thistime" (with all due respect), your $100 million calculation is off by one digit. Henceforth, just call me LOLLIPOP, 'cause I was a sucker buying into this one through Steve Parents' pumps. I also hoped for a turn-a-round under Faber after the litigation was completed... still nothing. Bottom line, I got into this one myself and I am to blame for my losses. I thought I'd found a Goldmine. Please excuse my long-winded post. This is my first time venting and it actually felt pretty good. Just be very cautious with this one and GLTYA.

News Release - Monday, June 04, 2007
ECU Silver Mining Inc., Completes Previously Announced $28.75
Million Private Placement
=======================================================================
Toronto, June 4, 2007 -- ECU Silver Mining Inc.

Each whole Warrant entitles its holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $2.85 at any time on or before June 4, 2009. However, if the closing price of the Common Shares is equal to, or greater than, $3.75 for a period of 20 consecutive trading days any time after October 5, 2007, ECU may give notice to the holders of the Warrants and thereby accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the 30th day following the date on which such notice is given.
The Common Shares and the Warrants comprising the Units, as well as any Common Shares which may be acquired upon the exercise of the Warrants, will be subject to resale restrictions imposed under Canadian securities legislation until October 5, 2007. Completion of the Offering is subject to receipt by the ECU of all necessary regulatory approvals.
ECU plans to use the net proceeds of this financing to fund mineral exploration and development on its properties as well as future property acquisitions and for general working capital purposes.

Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.

Apple may turn to RFID tags for easy Wi-Fi setup
By AppleInsider Staff
Published: 11:50 AM EST
Apple Inc. may turn to RFID tags to simplify Wi-Fi networking of its next-generation Mac and consumer electronics devices, a recent patent filing has revealed.
The filing, titled simply "RFID network arrangement," describes a system in which a router -- such as an AirPort Extreme Base station -- would hold an RFID transceiver containing all of the network's configuration information, including authentication and encryption keys.
When an Wi-Fi-enabled electronics device containing a synchronized RFID tag -- essentially a small hardware patch -- comes within range of the router, the RFID transceiver would automatically transfer the necessary configuration info to the RFID tag without prompting the user to perform software setup...

Hello all. exchange4gold: the same the happens to me when I first open the site, for all of the .pk and .v stocks that I track. Refresh page solves the problem.
Right, you are, FISHEETR. You nailed it, and, I take my hat off to commend b9's diligence. I figured that by inquiring as a potential customer, I might receive an informed reply. It didn't happen. Be that as it may, my expectations for LYJN remain high.

Has anyone had any success getting queries answered from LTC via e-mail? I have made at least three attempts to get answers regarding associations/projects with other companies. Maybe they are reluctant to provide answers by e-mail, but to not receive any type of reply is disheartening for this investor. I am still in though. My daytime/weekday responsibilities prevent me from contacting the company by phone. Be that as it may, I still feel that this company is amongst the front-runners in their technological arena, and will hold my position for some time to come. The company seems to have established its presence in the U.S and Europe, and are working with some big players on both continents. I'm hoping for a better Investor Relations department in the near future. Time will tell. GLTA.

Hi all... my first post here. I've held shares in LTHU since last May, anticipating the company to work its way through the competition and mingle with the big players. It surprises me is that LTHU's volume has dropped each day this week following the president's State of the Union address. What particularly surprises me is that the president made a statement during his discussion on energy which directly reflected a portion of the LTHU news release that was issued the day before. From the State of the Union (1/23/07 - my bold): "We need to press on with battery research for plug-in and hybrid vehicles, and expand the use of clean diesel vehicles and biodiesel fuel". Taken from the news release (1/22/06): LTC delivered 95 cells used by the UC Davis team to build the battery for the converted plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). Each cell has an output of 3.6 V (nominally) and a capacity of 45 Ah. The nominal battery pack voltage is 342 V, and with each cell limited to 4.2V, the maximum pack voltage is approximately 400 V. The converted Chevy Equinox is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). This means that the battery can be charged by either a generator driven by the internal combustion engine (ICE) or a standard AC household electrical socket. From a corporate perspective, I would take the aforementioned statement from the president to be an unofficial endorsement of my product, and use it to my advantage. Who knows... maybe they will. Cheers and GLTA.

Happy New Year All!
Here's a good read, regarding a makeover at Pink Sheets. Thanks to nilremerlin from another IHub board:
New York, NY - November 6, 2006 - Pink Sheets, LLC today announced the introduction of new categories for the companies traded on the Pink Sheets Electronic Interdealer Quotation and Trading System. The decision to start categorizing each security traded on the Pink Sheets is a move to provide more transparency to investors on the ability and willingness of issuers to provide adequate public disclosure in a credible and timely manner. Pink Sheets is a quotation and trading venue that does not have minimum disclosure standards. Trading is driven by OTC market demand rather than the traditional exchange listing process. Therefore, categorizing securities by their level of disclosure will greatly enhance the capital formation process. The categories are based on the level, quality and timeliness of a company's disclosure. The initiative is similar to the various markets that NASDAQ uses to classify companies as well as the identifiers that NASDAQ and NYSE use to label companies that are late or delinquent in disclosure. Pink Sheets will implement the new categories on May 1, 2007.
Companies that have substantial operating businesses and provide credible disclosure to the public qualify for the premium tier OTCQX, which commences trading on January 2007. For more information on OTCQX, please see our website at www.otcqx.com. Approximately 20% of the current Pink Sheets or OTC Bulletin Board traded companies could qualify for an OTCQX listing. All Pink Sheets quoted securities of issuers that are not able or willing to meet the high standards of OTCQX will be placed in one of the following categories and labeled as such on www.pinksheets.com effective May 1, 2007:
* Emerging Equities List represents companies that provide credible disclosure, including GAAP audited financials, but may not have sufficient business operations to qualify for OTCQX. To qualify for this category, companies are required to provide a letter from an attorney regarding the quality of their disclosure. These companies will have an Emerging Equity List logo next to their symbol.
* SEC Current indicates that the companies are SEC reporting and current in their financial reporting. Pink Sheets will track filings made through the SEC's EDGAR system and automatically categorize a company based on their filing status.
* Adequate Current Information indicates companies that conform to Pink Sheets Guidelines for Providing Adequate Current Information. An audit is not required, but a letter from an attorney regarding the completeness of disclosure is required. Federal or state regulated banks, insurance companies and companies listed on non-U.S. stock exchanges will only need to supply the information they file with their primary regulator in English and will not be required to provide an attorney letter.
* Limited Information Available applies to companies with some information posted in the last six months, either through the SEC's EDGAR system or the Pink Sheets News Service, but may not be current or complete. A yield sign will be displayed next to the symbol.
* Public Interest Concern is for stocks with unsolicited spam, questionable promotion or other public-interest concerns. A Skull and Crossbones icon will be displayed next to the symbol. If there is no current information available for a company that is the subject of unsolicited spam, their quotes will also be blocked on pinksheets.com.
* No Information is for all other Pink Sheets stocks. A stop sign will be displayed next to the symbol.
The companies that wish to be designated as OTCQX or Emerging Equities List companies are required to submit an application as they will be agreeing to provide a minimum level of disclosure. Adequate Current Information and Limited Information Available require non-SEC-reporting issuers to subscribe to the Pink Sheets News Service to make the information publicly available.
"The creation of the OTCQX and the forthcoming Pink Sheets categories are the next step in our continuing efforts to improve the Pink Sheets trading environment," commented Cromwell Coulson, Chairman and CEO of Pink Sheets. "We have transformed the Pink Sheets from a nearly dormant paper-based quotation service to a fully integrated electronic quotation, trading and disclosure system with almost $25 billion in volume of trading in the first quarter of this year and market maker participation from 200 of the largest securities firms in the world. Because of our highly efficient trading platform, over 90% of inter-dealer trading in OTC Bulletin Board securities now trades through our systems. In addition, we have given issuers the ability to communicate with the investment public through our website, pinksheets.com, which registers over 100 million page views from investors each month."
Additional efforts to enhance transparency and investor confidence include successfully persuading the NASD to require its members to include Pink Sheets and OTC Bulletin Board securities in the monthly short-interest reports. Pink Sheets has also petitioned the SEC to create rules that would expose illegal promotion activities such as spam e-mails that can tarnish the reputation of good companies and diminish the price of their stock.
"Companies are known by the company they keep, and we hope that in providing these new categories, companies that provide disclosure to the public will clearly stand apart from those companies that are of lesser quality," concluded Mr. Coulson.

I ran across an item which mentions the Strat and shows an earlier illustration; just wondering if the article is an old one I never saw before or perhaps a fairly recent one? Anyone? Should it be a recent article, that's definitely encouraging.

GlobeTel Communications Corp. (OTC: GTEM) - Wednesday's shares decreased 11.00% to $0.445 per share with a total of 839,053 shares traded. The company announced that a sampling of camera shots taken in conjunction with providing an overview of the video surveillance package capabilities of its Sanswire 2A Technology Demonstrator Stratellite(TM) is available as streaming video on the www.globetel.net and www.sanswire.com websites. The ability to utilize the Stratellite(TM) as a surveillance tool for military and Homeland Security applications, as well as other governmental needs, augments the versatile Sanswire Stratellite(TM) airship's overall attractiveness as a communications platform, according to Lt. Colonel (Ret.) Doug Murch, Sanswire President. "We wanted the GlobeTel shareholders to have the opportunity to see and experience some of what members of the military and defense industry experienced live during the successful Stratellite(TM) float test. Feedback to our prospective surveillance package by our invited guests was positive, and will be important to our efforts as our airship development advances."

tghtass, I am one of those who came aboard above 0.24. I have no regrets though. I made a single large SPECULATIVE purchase @ 0.39; have not averaged down although some great average-down opportunities did pass by. I consider my investment in this company as money spent, hoping to see it again with exponential returns. If not, c'est la vie! Again, money spent; wisely spent I'm hoping. Time is on the side of those who are willing to allow this concept reach its maturity, imho. GLTY.

Thanks MAC, for sharing your information with this board. Although the going is slow, things seem to be positively taking shape in the development of the Lyric Culture line. The long term position here is definitely looking up. Best wishes to you and the LYJN IHub board for a joyous holiday season. Cheers and GLTA!

Hi all. I have been holding King's Bay Gold for quite some time now (2+ yrs.) and they have finally taken a major step forward. Has anyone here followed Kings Bay Gold (KBG.V, KBCGF.PK), lately? They're up KBG.V, 100% @ .72 (+0.36) and KBGF.PK 224% @ .645 (+0.4461). Comments on this company, anyone?

hi all. i emailed People's Revolution, hoping to get their take on Lyric's position in the industry. i received a reply and was given a phone number to call. i called the number and spoke with Kelly Cutrone, owner of people's revolution. my first impression of her was that she was somewhat rude, whereas my email message info request was as generic as i could have made it. she came off as hostile, wanting to know who i might be or what i'm trying to get out of her; but as we talked she mellowed, explained her position in trying to protect her client's interest. in the end, i did not get any information at all. she said that she would forward my phone # to Hanna. i assume that she did. she (kelly) followed up with another email, directing me IR. i also emailed Jorge Moreno. i received a reply from an Orlano Gonzalez, who works for Moreno, stating that the Latin Line has a way to go yet, but they're enthusiastic about the direction they are moving. no time line though. i haven't spoken to the new IR person yet. has anyone? i still believe that the lyric concept will fly. when... is the definitive question. cheers and glta.
