I sent an email to the IR guy Bob and said basically that while the co. can't worry about the day-to-day share price, I felt that sinking to $2 (and now lower) creates even more problems. I cited other companies and PTX around the time of the "R/S" suffering from the S/P gpoing below this. He emailed me back and asked , "What is R/S" and said after I answered, he'd pass it on to the CFO and CEO. Does not look like many people are around here anymore, but feel free to join me.
Well, that news did wonders. Whatever brilliant things they are doing or not doing are taking us very close to that terrible two mark ($2).
Should we not be hearing something about the Contrave deal soon? The date 7/13 was mentioned in the last press release.
Thanks for the responses about MS and Anatabloc. I may tell my friend to try some. I don't see any complaints about the new Anatabloc so I am assuming that it has been working in general. Does anyone feel that having a tobacco company owning these patents is a total waste? I don't see a tobacco giant using the patents purely for some type of anti-inflammatory products.
Can you let me know how the Anatabloc worked for the person with MS? One of my best friends has it and I've always thought about having her try Anatabloc. Thanks.
Do you think PTX will get Contrave? I know they have a stalking horse bid in, which is often just the starting point for bidding. I am hoping the rise in share price is due to some more imminent news, but maybe it is the Contrave potential. I know for sure I am past the stage where I think Sedor walks on water.
I got nothing. My post was a joke responding to your joke about "hard to argue with" the previous post that was blank. Unfortunately, I think if anatabine was named miracle product of the century, it would not help us one bit.
No news is good news?
PMI's website says they are "making major investments in alternative products that adult smokers will find satisfying but offer less risk than cigarettes." So you may be 100% correct. And when PMI starts making money on products that contain anatabine, I will be very inflamed.
On the topic of all the bids and asks...I just heard that a majority of trades are done by computer. I think that is the key to trading on RCPIQ. Market makers are willing to trade any company as long as there is trading to do. Just set their algorithms to buy low and sell even just slightly higher. More and more, I feel this is not a level playing field.
Thanks. They'd have to be careful about the health claims. But I can't see PMI going for an actual pharmaceutical, can you? It sounds like they don't have to enforce their property with Predator as I am getting the impression their product is crap. This whole thing really bugs me and if I had the money, I would leave no stone unturned trying to find some way to discover wrong-doing or incompetence in fiduciary responsibility. And that includes Miller and Richenderfer.
So as I've wondered aloud before...since I can't see PMI doing anything with the IP that would have to do with an anti-inflammatory product, can we all throw in a couple bucks and hire a lawyer to inquire as to whether that company would sell IP just for a nutraceutical? I hate to agree with the one man band that rains on the parade all the time, but I agree as RCPIQ shareholders, we are toast.
This is not a stock pump--just for info--but there is a pharma co. Pernix Therepeuticsthat is part of a stalking horse bid for a top-selling weight loss drug owned by a pharma co. in CA that is going BK. I never saw the term actually used in pr before so it is interesting to get a little idea of how it is SUPPOSED to work.
Here are a whole bunch of assumptions on what looks to be a week-old thread:
Predator is selling anatabine citrate and just calling it "anatabine" like we've done here for years. Like taking a chromium supplement usually means chromium picolinate. They are not chemists and it's just one of many products they sell.
Predator is violating patent law and really did not know it. Now they just don't care because I told them months ago. (that they might be)
No one will enforce that because if the tobacco giant owns the patents, they are not going to use them to make a pharmaceutical or a nutraceutical.
SO...no one will go to bat for RCPIQ shareholders and we are still screwed. In my totally undocumented and non-expert opinion!
I thought I'd ask you directly. Did you buy 50 million shares of LBSR? I've always said if I had even 1 million bucks, i'd buy $500,000 worth of shares on the open market and then do a half a mil PP. I bet I'd make the money back on the shares bought in the open market when the PP was announced. Not sure if insider trading counts when you are the one causing the event. I think JB once told me or us (can't remember if it was in a chat here in Tucson or a public message), that it would take $27,000 to transport the drill from Nevada. I'd love to invest exactly that much money to symbolically pay for that step.
I'd like to see the deal sheet also. And can the smart kids help the dumb kids? What is the 50 million shares a reference to? And is it related to the deal sheet.
I read an article in The Economist a couple weeks ago that cited two studies which suggested the market is rigged and insider trading is rampant. If today's earnings report should happen NOT to be good, i will take that as another little piece of evidence that the playing field is not level. As in some people sold because they knew today's news was less than stellar. I hope I am wrong.
Bono, I'm sure you are a nice fellow but you are not doing us any favors with your mysterious posts. I'd rather believe you than onemanband, naturally. But if you are really trying to help us, give us a little more of a clue. And keep in mind that anatabine could be the greatest miracle ever and that alone will not help RCPIQ shareholders.
I'd like to now more about the Joseph Shepherd email too.
Loophole: do you think PMI will even bother spending their money on court costs if they are only using the tobacco-related processes? I have no idea. If not, Hydrapharm can keep making it. Predator can keep selling it, and I guess Walgreens in one region of Africa can stock in on their shelves with that agreement the company's subsidiary has with Hydrapharm. What a flustercluck.
This is finally showing signs of life. The news releases paint a picture of getting more and more productive. I am surprised it has not been discovered by more bargain hunters. The connection to Stage Completions is also icing on the cake.
Well it is now 11:01 EST so our fortunes are being decided! Let's say that RCPIQ is toast. Probably is. PMI will own the patents. I almost hesitate to keep this going...but will PMI even use the patents for a supplement or only for a tobacco-related product? And if the latter, I wonder if they would sell rights to use anatabine for other purposes. Actually this will not help us at all with our shares, but just curious.
Since I am also in the group who holds what was a $24,000 piece of the Rock (Creek), I also wonder about the future of anatabine. If I had the money for an attorney, I'd first ask him/her if Miller and Richenderfer satisfied their fiduciary responsiblity in this whole matter. For example, I told Richenderfer on the phone that Predator was selling the compound under the same name, that Hydrapharm was the manufacturer, and that Walgreens sold Hydrapharm products in a region of Africa. I doubt these BK attorneys followed all these trails to the end. I'd also have my lawyer call Phillip Morris and ask if they were only going to use the tobacco applications and if they'd be interested in selling the rights to the compound for health purposes. And one thing I will do, even though it is probably futile, is to email Calico Labs again (Google's life extension company) and tell them that a tobacco company is going to get a very powerful anti-inflammaging product for a mere $250,000.
To decide whether anatabine has any future that is profitable, I'd like to know more about whether Patrick Cox is right about giving up on anatabine because medical pot does the trick, and same question about the other compound that Williams seems to be interested in now.
Well...all I can say is I hope this is a super Sedor-rific deal we are waiting so long for. Perhaps I should quickly have children and get them to have children ASAP so I can leave my PTX shares to my as-yet-unborn grandchildren.
There. I feel better.
OK, thanks. And thanks for all your efforts.
Hi idcc. Did I miss something? Did court papers show that Archer IS the one entity that was the bidder on the IP? Just to recap, Linda Richenderfer told me there had been two bidders, one dropped out, but the remaining one could not be disclosed because there was a confidentiality agreement. I did think we'd get to know the name of the bidder and the amount of the bid before everything was finalized. I thought that would be a needed step on the court status report before any final decision--like a matter of public record.
What happened after you told her you were a credited investor? If I had more money, I would look into hiring an attorney to call these people and let them know they are not fulfilling their fiduciary responsibility in assessing the value of the IP. For one, Linda acted like she would look into Hydrapharm and Predator selling a product which contains a compound that belongs to us.
RE: the warehouse, maybe you already know about the former employee(s) who stole Anatabloc from there? Maybe someone can correct me, but I thought the value was $100,000 or somewhere in that neighborhood. Never heard anything since. But I always thought it was a pretty good explanation for why Anatabloc was offered online for so long before the supply dried up.
I began viewing Mullan as an adversary when I called him about 13 or 14 months ago, he agreed to talk to a group of us on the phone and then changed his mind. When I sent an email to him through his secretary mentioning something to this effect, he called me. That's when he told me, among other things, that Roskamp could use anatabine because the institute is non-profit, a statement which Miller's counsel had some doubts about. I reiterate that she seemed surprised at Mullan's relationship with Archer, but just my opinion. Now I view Mullan and Jenkins as even more as adversaries who care nothing for RCPI shareholders and may be the one bidder. If so; and if JW had anything to do with Hydrapharm and Predator, maybe these two entities are or will be adversaries too. I also will do what little I can to stop any of these people from "stealing" what belongs to all of us.
I hope you make a bundle on it soon!
I might grab some more had I not grabbed some at 2.80 and then 2.60. I should make stock recommendations and people could do the opposite of what I do and make money. Maybe some day when that $25 price target is attained, I will feel better.
Is this taking longer than expected? Volume is "heavy" today but so far less than 70,000 shares so not a rush to the exit. Maybe just that computer algorightm trading stuff. Sure would like to see that $25 price target before I shed my mortal coil.
I'm sorry, that was an exaggeration to make a point. Jonnie Williams could be 1( the actual bidder. It is confidential. 2) The second bidder that, acc. to Miller's counsel, dropped out 3) not interested in bidding at all because he has some secret role with Hydrpharm No proof or even vague hinot of that 4) Not interested at all for one reason or another because he has other alkaloids in the fire. (bad metaphor). However, even if he was actively pursuing the other alkaloid (mycosomine?) or some form of cannabinoid also ?), my thought it was that if the IP for anatabine citrate were handed him on a silver platter, he would partake.
And really, is he starting over if he goes with the other alkaloid? There was at least some clinical trials and quite a bit of anecdotal evidence that anatabine was effective and valuable. But good to note, that eventually we will hear who the bidder is and other info.I suggested to Predator last week that we should all bid on it together. Just trying to stir things up and creative some news on this.
You're in good company, but I think this is a little different than, say, buying shares in a mining company that fakes gold drilling results. As I always note, my doctor told me about this company and already had lots of feedback from his own use, two patients with Alzheimer's, a relative with Crohn's that anatabine citrate really works.
Now Jonnie seems to have found a "loophole" by trying to use a similar alkaloid. IDCC, unfortunately, I don't see any benefit to him or anyone getting legal access to the IP by reviving RCPI. I am just trying to create awareness so others like Predator can bid on the IP and not let someone like Williams just walk away with it. Note that the counsel for Miller would not tell me who the bidder is because of a CA.
Despite all his new ventures, I still find it hard to believe that Jonnie would just give up on anatabine. Maybe he was the second bidder that the counsel Linda told me about that dropped out. Maybe he had some connection to Hydrapharm, but I think he'd know he was violating patent law. But all just speculation. But I bet if he could have the anatabine IP for $500, he woulnd't turn it down.
My doc who told me about Anatabloc confirmed that he had patients with Crohn's who stopped smoking and gad the disease really blow up. He told me that after I mentioned to him that my brother with Crohn's and smokes has had docs tell him something to the effect, "well, at least the smoking will help control the Crohn's".
I still want to hear if this new A-bloc works without mixing it with old A-bloc. One of the people I was going to recommend it to has a daughter with serious TBI after a bad car crash. I don't want to steer anyone wrong.
By the way, Predator does reply to PMs on Facebook. Just to keep interest, I PMs them last week and said another reason they should bid on the IP is the studies re TBI and GWI. Someone responded from Predator, "Thanks. Appreciate your help" or similar. Maybe someone could PM them and ask to confirm that this new A-bloc IS the same. In a regular email, they responded to that question with, "Yes it is the same exact formula, in fact." FWIW.
No, I get it...but did there used to be two forms of Anatabloc, one with xylitol and one without> I thought I remembered long ago some people saying they did not like the ones with xylitol...
Yes, I wish we could get a chemist who'd help us to analyze the new Anatabloc AND tell us about the alkaloid in Jonnie's new patent which seems to skirt the anatabine patent. Also interesting because of Leif's update on a certain person who covered anatabine and now covers cannabinoids (?) but this new Jonnie patent still sticks with the tobacco plant connection.
So basically this SOB is taking another alkaloid found in tobacco and even mentioning Hashimoto's, and patenting it? God, there are so many scumbags in this whole story.
Has anyone called the company lately? I called and left a message about two weeks ago and did not get a callback. I don't think that ever happened before. I am hurt. (sad face emoji here)
Thanks for the perspective. I want to add that Miller and his counsel thought it was worth finding out more about Predator and Hydrapharm, and also acknowledged my email about the Walgreens Boots Alliance. She (Linda is her name) also seemed surprised by the Roskamp use of anatabine and the Archer connection with Dr. Mullan. So far, I've hit a wall on Hydrapharm except, as I noted, their Facebook page seems to suggest an Algerian HQ. Like everyone else, I would love to know if Hydrapharm just stumbled on Anatabloc or if someone behind the scenes like Jonnie Williams chose to contact them and offer Anatabloc; which, in my amateur opinion WOULD be a violation of patent law. Also interesting that there were two entities that did NOT respond to my emails and Facebook PMs: Mullan/Crawford/Archer/Roskamp (I sent multiple messages.) And Hydrapharm. Even Walgreens senior counsel returned an email.
Having said all that...I am thinking about recommending Anatabloc to two or three people. I know Predator's email to me said "same exact formula, in fact." But is anyone who has ordered it feeling any benefits yet? I know it may be too soon. Seek the Light?
Just got an email from Walgreens' senior counsel saying they take IP rights very seriously and they will look into my assertion that the company is violating patent law. Just a reminder that from what I can tell, Walgreens Alliance has a deal with Hydrapharm only in one region of Africa.
If you look at Hydrapharm's Facebook page, you will see a reference to it being in Algeria, and most posts are in French. I did not see anything about where actual mfr. takes place.
Since I am online I will answer: cannabanoid. I just looked it up a few days ago!
LEIF: was the Bring Back Anatabloc the effort of the Urban Diva, whose website had her "Anatabloc diaries" about how it was helping her Crohn'a
I have had no response from Hydrapharm or Walgreens Boots Alliance. Miller's counsel said she'd let me know when she could talk more, so I am waiting to hear.
Knuts: It doesn't surprise me that Walgreens in the US does not have Anatabloc. According to the one document I could find (Walgreens Boots Alliance Analyst Day), the company has some type of equity agreement only in Africa. So whatever that means, it sounds like some part of WBA sells some Hydrapharm products in some part of Africa. But I did email WBA in the US and informed the counsel just because WBA might be vulnerable to a lawsuit with its US connection. It's all just an experiment.
