YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!! Ok, let's not only lose our money but hey, we're dumb enough to now send money to an attorney?!?! XKEM has our money. Let them pay for their own representation. Good grief, where does the stealing end?
Hi Lochute & all,
I enjoy your posts and gather so much info from this board. I rarely pipe in but will today (cause I can!) and say that I bought a year ago at the high of .11. I have not fretted at all about this going back up and OVER. I have a ton of money in this stock, it was the first one I ever played and I feel like I got lucky on this. Not only will I make money, but I am in a company that will make a difference in the world. XKEM/Nicosan will be life altering for many. This company is one I believe in and keeps with my core values. So, hey, I'm hanging in there and intend to for as long as it takes. And, it won't be years! Cheers to all!!!!
Watching this everyday and HOLDING for sure! Also, for those who were involved in the WHAI (World Health) fiasco, the Class Action suit was finalized! FAST, it was only a year ago that we lost all of our money on that one!
I'm here, just not as savvy as most of you so I'm learning every day and patient!!!
Seems most have problems with PM. Could you please post your information on the board so we can all benefit? Thanks!
SEATTLE!!!
What are the odds on this...As we wait for the facility to be built, loans, etc., over the next 9-12 months, this stock will bounce around. At some point in there, who on this board really believes there is a chance it will hit .01 again, even for a day/week? Here's why I ask: I would love to have an even 1 million shares for the long term (1-5 years if need be), but I can't afford to buy another 800k shares at these prices. I know, why an even number but then when it hits $1, I'll have ONE MILLION DOLLARS. just looking for some input. I've only been in this penny game for a couple of months and I dropped all other stocks and put my money here, uh, and at the high. But I'm staying!
I forgot who said this....someone this week stated he would add more if/when we hit .01 (I'm paraphrasing so please do not take this as an exact quote). I would like to send a private message question to this person but, again, senility must have set in! I can't remember who! I'm going to subscribe to iHub today so I can post personal messages.
thanks in advance to everyone!!!
I KNOW....amazing that this made news!!!
Wouldn't be calling Oprah on for awhile. Just got this off of YahooNews....

South Africans fall victim to Oprah scam
CAPE TOWN, South Africa - Police questioned eight people Friday after discovering an investment scam that used Oprah Winfrey's name days after she interviewed prospective pupils in South Africa for her new all-girls school.

Some 500 people crowded into a community center in the eastern city of Grahamstown after being told that they had to make a simple payment of $1.40 with the promise of then receiving $168 per month for 10 years. Police said Winfrey knew nothing about it.
Authorities who went to the community center Thursday after hearing locals boast about their pending windfall were shouted at and told to go away, the South African Press Association reported Friday.
"This process is believed to have started earlier this week," Mali Govender told SAPA. "By word of mouth the community were informed of this easy way of making money."
Police confiscated 160 applications and returned nearly $280, he said.
Scams are a frequent occurrence in South Africa, targeted mainly at the poor and uneducated. The latest one was apparently fueled by publicity surrounding Winfrey's brief visit to the country to interview prospective pupils for the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls.
At a ceremony Sunday, Winfrey selected all 73 girls aged 11-12 who had shown up for interviews. More children from other parts of South Africa will be chosen later this year.
The academy, which is to open in January, has the blessing of South African education authorities who donated the site south of Johannesburg. The Oprah Winfrey Foundation contributed $10 million.
"It is a positive thing for South Africa," said local education department spokesman Lusufi Banyaza. "We used to have private schools denying access to the poor on cost grounds. Now girls will be able to get access to quality private education."
South Africa's education system still suffers from the legacy of apartheid. Private schools have top-class study and sporting facilities but are still dominated by the white minority as they are too expensive for many black and mixed-race South Africans.
Many state-funded schools, especially in the sprawling townships that sprung up under white racist rule, are hopelessly overcrowded and lack even basic facilities such as books.
BTW, I apologize in advance Patience, this wasn't meant as a response only to you, meant as a general comment to the board.
There is no way Burg or anyone else (banks) will tell that the loan has been approved to someone on the PHONE. Give me a break. If someone says they have been told that, they are full of crap.
SECOND THAT.....
160,900
I know, I have this mental block that I want to own an even one million shares but I can't afford another $16k right now. I'm in for almost 200k shares at .10 and I'm not selling for anything. Gotta figure out what I can afford, but I'm into this stock and won't leave it!!! thanks Ruter!!! I read every post every day!
And do what?
might have made that sound like a negative post. My intent was to say that 'IF' it goes as low as .01, I can buy more and I'm willing to hold onto everything I have until it pops to above $1, which I fully believe it will.
hope that gets me out of the doghouse...woof :=)
Just waiting for the low....
I'll buy another 800k if it hits .01 to even out at a million and willing to wait however long it takes!
Uh, yea, read post #32842....Scarecrow made that statement
Whoa, what a prejudiced statement "Nigerians aren't ethical"!!! Where the heck do you get off thinking that is okay?
ICGN DOWN 77% TODAY!!!!! Go to Yahoo finance and read...down from $2.10 to .92 so far....could very well be good for us! thanks for the post!!!
Unfortunately YES....my average is a bit higher than that. But I'm LONG!!!! wish I had the money that people on this board 'seem' to have. How the heck do you guys buy a couple of hundred thousand shares each week??? I'm doing something wrong!! Good luck, I love reading the DD on this board. Thanks for it!
This board went DOWNHILL today....
Did we just get all the idiots from RB or what?
Do we really want to hear all the rather vulgar references to someone's wife, etc.
Good grief, let's clean it up....bunch of 15 year olds on here or what?
WHY? Because a CEO...
would NOT send out an email, letter, etc., to an organization such as the Gates Foundation without having it proofed. It doesn't matter what language we are talking about, this is sloppy work. Let's see, do you think that this is the person you want representing us to the GF? The team at the GF would laugh at this....how do I know....I'm...
SLEEPLESS LIVING IN SEATTLE!!!!
Whatever he is saying,
I hope that someone did a spelling & grammar check on any so-called requests he sent to the Gates Foundation. What a crock of BS.
Do folks on these boards...
really believe that publicly traded companies base their PR's on what is said on this board, RB, or any other board??? You must be kidding.
You might have been joking, but....
you are so right that there is someone's life worse than ours. We are all playing a penny stock, trying to make some money. Our choice. There are folks out there who don't get this opportunity, they are trying to keep their electric on. I'm long on this stock with you and I'm going to put an order in too!
There are folks on this board at night who obviously use it as their social outlet and who are also QUITE obviously under the influence of some substance!
Thank you to you guys/gals who provide and share the DD you have accomplished on this stock! I appreciate it and I'm looking forward to the next few months on this one!!!
If you can't afford to lose it, get out!!!
Thought so, but wanted confirmation!
Thanks, digitick, for your patience with this newbie!!!
I'm getting hooked on this pennystock thing....not sure that's a good thing!!!!
Newbie question:
What is a '10 bagger'? I've made assumptions when I see this term but thought I'd better ask.
I'm long on XKEM, @200k shares and am putting more money in my E-Trade account to buy more this week! Patience will payoff, don't play with what you can't afford to lose!
I'm learning!!!! Thanks Dart! eom
THANKS DART!!! Now I'm learning a new word 'swing trading'! OMG!!!! And, where the heck does everyone get all this money to keep buying? I see 'oh, just bought in MORE , 400k at .039'....holy cow, I must be a little player in a huge world! thanks for your words of wisdom!! much appreciated!!!
Wow, this is so helpful!
The information I get from folks on this board is just outstanding. I think about this, who investing in a stock really has any interest in helping others? The guys calling the XKEM HQ take the time to post their conversations, DD is in detail here, charts everywhere. These are selfless, helpful acts. I for one totally appreciate it! Thanks to everyone who has the heart to help others. Hope our drug does the same!!!
Thanks Bob!!! eom
Where the heck does one learn to interpret these charts??
If it weren't for some great info from folks on this board, I'd be SOL....but, I'm not, I'm long and strong! Anyone know of a good place to start learning what all these charts mean, please forward info. Maybe some day I'll be able to help others on this board!!! Have a great day!!!
This is coming from someone who lost credibility yesterday...
hmmm....pulling this info from the same hole where 'I talked to XKEM today and PR is coming out' came from....that's the hole where SH*T comes out!
OMG...If you're sticking with that much on the line, I'm a BELIEVER!!!
GO LONG!!!
I'm LONG with 300k shares!!!
ALL IN!!!
SHARE YOUR OPINIONS....
and your insights and DD. There are very few of you folks out on this board who educate those of us who are new to this game. I totally appreciate that no one is 100% on target 100% of the time! Keep it comin', BigDaddy!!!!
Read the last 2 paragraphs of the article......
Gates, himself, is scheduled in 2008 to stand back from the day-to-day running of Microsoft and instead devote almost all his time to his charitable foundation, which is dedicated to improving public health, largely in Africa. Microsoft officials say he has made numerous visits to South Africa, both on company and foundation business.
Both Gates and former U.S. President Bill Clinton will appear at the software conference before moving on to Lesotho where they will visit HIV/Aids treatment clinics. The Gates foundation is devoted to health issues and is hosting that part of the trip and Microsoft officials say they are attempting to keep the two parts of the trip separate, releasing no information on the charitable part of the visit.

Here it is: Wall Street Journal article...
African Leaders Welcome Microsoft Support For IT Access
DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
July 10, 2006 9:47 a.m.
CAPE TOWN (Dow Jones)--African political leaders Monday praised Microsoft Corp.'s (MSFT) support for the region's development of information-technology access and called for greater investment to further expand this reach.
Speaking at the start of a two-day conference Microsoft organized to discuss ways to bring more software to Africa, Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete said Africa was the world's "last frontier in information technology," with just 10% of the Tanzanian population having easy access to computers.
Kikwete said Microsoft's funding for experiments in Internet education programs was important and he called for such projects to "move beyond the experimental stage."
Kikwete said he was determined to boost access to computers by keeping computer hardware and software free from import duties.
Mozambiquan President Armando Emilio Guebezo pledged to increase spending on software, saying his country was dedicated to building a broadband infrastructure which would power "provincial digital resource centers, community multimedia centers, community radios, public and private radio stations and the possibility of electronic transfers."
Speaking to Dow Jones Newswires after his speech, Guebezo said Microsoft, which charges fees for its operating system, was the only high-tech company to approach his government about supplying software.
He said no vendors of Linux, the 'open source' technology that is a rival to Microsoft's software, had approached his government so it had no choice but to rely on Microsoft.
Though it declines to break out its African revenue and profits, or even its African staff, Microsoft says it is the largest software investor in Africa.
It says it has donated more than $1 billion to educational activities in the region and has contracts with most of the region's governments to provide software for schools.
"I see technology playing a central role in making Africa more competitive," said Cheick Diarra, Microsoft's Africa Chairman. "We see how we can use technology...so people do not spend what little money they have to travel to the city."
Microsoft's warm welcome from African leaders is in sharp contrast to its standing in Europe, where the European Commission competition regulator has said the U.S.-based software giant faces fines for not respecting a 2004 antitrust ruling.
The fine could total almost half a billion dollars. The E.U. says Microsoft has abused its Windows monopoly. Microsoft is appealing against the penalty and says it is doing its best to respect the E.U.'s orders.
Gates, himself, is scheduled in 2008 to stand back from the day-to-day running of Microsoft and instead devote almost all his time to his charitable foundation, which is dedicated to improving public health, largely in Africa. Microsoft officials say he has made numerous visits to South Africa, both on company and foundation business.
Both Gates and former U.S. President Bill Clinton will appear at the software conference before moving on to Lesotho where they will visit HIV/Aids treatment clinics.
