Kudos to Zig
After trying to weed through the junk on Yahoo - I know that not all is junk but it is time consuming to filter to good posts - it nice to come to a sane I HUB. I have learned a great deal and truly appreciate the governing of this site to make it professional.
Thanks for the differing opinions and respect shown on this site.
I really feel everyone is a touch edgy (myself included) awaiting the NEWS. It is kinda like Christmas Eve to a kid. I am in longer than I should be but am a believer.
CHEERS
Some action on US Board
3500 shares of Alda traded at .262 on Feb 22 on

SEC puts new curbs on short-selling
SEC puts new 'circuit breaker' curbs on short-selling in bid to buttress market stability
On Wednesday February 24, 2010, 11:34 am
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Federal regulators have imposed new curbs on the practice of short-selling, hoping to prevent spiraling selling sprees in a stock that can stoke market turmoil.
A divided Securities and Exchange Commission voted 3-2 Wednesday to adopt new rules.
The rules put in a so-called circuit breaker for stock prices, restricting for the rest of a trading session and the next one any short-selling of a stock that has dropped 10 percent or more.
Short-sellers bet against a stock. They borrow a company's shares, sell them and then buy them when the stock falls and return them to the lender -- pocketing the difference in price.
I am hoping this is a good thing.
Possibilities
I am confused - does anyone else see a marketing opportunity here.
From Aldas website dated October 20, 2009 and I quote
Alda's first product T36 Disinfectant has been tested on 57 infectious bacteria, viruses and fungi. T36 disinfectant kills on contact and is effective in destroying all of them, including HIV, Polio, Legionella and the Norwak-like virus, within a 3-minute period. It kills tuberculosis (TB) in 5 minutes, is 100 times more effective than the specified requirement for hospital use and exceeds the kill rate of other disinfectants on the market.
[is that not a marketing dream -"100 times more effective than the specified requirement for hospital use"]
T36 Disinfectant has been approved by Health Canada for use as a hospital grade, surface disinfectant and by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) for use in restaurants and the food processing industry.It is also available in the United Kingdom and Asia.
Is anyone aware of distribution in UK and Asia?
T36 Disinfectant is non-corrosive, non caustic, non hazardous, bidegradable, highly effective and competitively priced. It is conveniently available in a 480ml utility bottle, a 1 litre bottle, a 4 litre Econono Pack and a 20 litre Sani_pak.
When I read the above - could not wait to buy this stock ASAP. Check the pricing in October and check it out now. I am holding. They could not have posted the UK and Asia statement without having a plan. Once the Olympics are over could we see T36 in Asia, UK and USA or is this just my Olympic Dream - Go Canada Go.
Put a spray trigger on the one litre bottle and get it on the retail distribution shelves of your exisiting accounts.The large size container would also increase visibility for the T36 brand.
Check your own cupboards - Does anyone own a can of Lysol _Sells for around $4.
No market for a disinfectant in retail - HUGE.
I also posted this on another site.
Billboard
In addition to skytrain etc. I just saw a T36 billboard on the freeway between Chilliwack and Abbotsford. This is a major route just east of Vancouver and will capture vehicular traffic coming into Vancouver.
It is with a pile of other Olympic billboards.
I know that this link is not really stock related but thought you might enjoy a view of the Olympic city which we all hope generates some action.
Cool pix and great technology.

Thanks Zig
Your posts help to educate someone who is inexperienced in stock. I did not know what to think -small block trades scared - big block trades scared - made me want to think of investing in some other pharmaceuticals. SP is getting close to my averaged down holding price - yay. Would have loved to be in earlier but so would most.
My confidence was waning so needed some positive feedback. Thanks again.
Sorry for the error
Read last Saturdays New Westminster Record that showed a list of New Westminster people who would carry the torch - Justin Morneau (baseball) and Terrence Owens - Alda Pharmaceuticals and others.
Knew that the torch went through New Westminster today and made an assumption. At least Alda was mentioned in the press.

just noticed management promotions what do think it means
APCSF.OB is no longer valid. It has changed to APCSE.OB.
This is the message from the Alda symbol on the USA board. I do not know if it means anything but just recently happened.
(We could hope that it is setup for announcement on US distribution but that is just speculation.)
