That may be true..hope you guys like the fat lady's tune.
From whence came the familiar saying, "The hand writing is on the wall".
Yeah, and the ruling on the lawsuit is scheduled next week (Feb.15). And that is not speculation, unless the Judge entertains another motion.
For a good laugh, read message #30700 by Stocker trout, on the RB board (GFCI)
Get real Trinity. If Dial/Grifco had the money to defend the suit, they wouldn't be in this predicament. Robinson-Reed has very deep pockets. You really think they will "back off" ? It ain't gonna happen. I don't think the hedge funds are intimidated at all. They eat companies like Grifco for breakfast ,lunch, and dinner. JMHO
BBB-Just curious...have you voiced your concerns (about the 6 items in your post) to Dial; if so, how does he respond to those concerns? From my viewpoint, he seems to dodge questions such as these from most investors. Why doesn't he do something or say something to allay investors fears about him and this company? Many of us are left with the impression that we are expected to take our loss and dump the stock, leaving Dial and his friends as the ultimate winners.
The problem with people like me, is that I don't have 10 years to wait for this situation to play out/drag out. You could be a 100% right in your prognostication, but many of us could still lose money on this investment due to the unwarranted (no pun intended) delays in Dial following through on his promises. I am 70 years old, and had I known that this "investment" would cause me this much grief, I would have put my money elsewhere. If I could double my original investment in 10 years, it would still be a sorry investment.
Please don't insult me by telling me to "sell" if I don't like what's going on with Dial/Grifco.
Since you seem to be the most knowledgable poster on GFCI, I would appreciate your response and your thoughts on these questions.
TIA

Len ... you are missing the point. The example cited by Cyo is not a hundred dollar investment, it is a 10 cent investment. Cyo is right.
Dang !! ....Four PR's in three days. eom
Len...don't mean to beat a dead horse, but Dr.Bill's post doesn't show up on my 'puter. I'm getting MLD's post for the DR. AND for MLD. In other words I'm getting the post repeated verbatim. Must be a glitch somewhere. Strange? How is that possible?
Len...Please READ post #8169 and #8170. Dr. Bill's post is missing. Both posts exhibit the post made by MLD38, at least that is what is showing up on my 'puter. Check it out !
Len... the last two posts are identical, one from Dr.Bill and one from MLD...what's going on?
Thanks,
Royce
Just to be clear,is that with tongue in cheek?
When I subtract .095, from .115, I get .02 difference, NOT .035 as you posted. Must be new math.
The three musketeers must be at the shareholders meeting. None of them have graced this board today.
What I invested certainly wasn't "smart money"
He doesn't post on RB either, Visxlaserman finally showed up today, offering nothing in the way of information. Sad that the two most vocal supporters of this stock are MIA. I guess they are afraid to say anything at this point.
Hang in there Tampa. You are not alone. It seems that the people on this board who protest the most are those who have nothing to lose (or so they say). It is nobody's busines but yours if you choose to take a flyer on a risky stock. I don't think anybody posting on this board are newbies, so who are they trying to protect?
JMHO

Some of the shareholders,posting on RB,stated several days ago that they were unable to book reservations at this casino/hotel,since it was booked solid on the dates of the HOMD/TTII meeting. This could be the reason that GFCI was only able to book the space indicated by your "research".
Makes sense to me.
Royce
Why is the PPS not responding to this seemingly good news? C'mon Griffy. Maybe Viagra will help to get it up?
NEWS!!...GRIFCO announces shareholder meeting, October 17 at 1:00 pm. Good luck longs!!
Royce
Anybody get their proxy yet?
Gotcha!...thanks...eom
Cyofish..just curious..have you read any of these reports? If so, can you share any information from them?
Royce
I posted the same question on RB and not a whimper of a response from the board. How can stockholders be so oblivious to this issue? All anybody wants to talk about is naked shorting. I don't get it!
Royce
cyofish--there is something that is puzzling about the GRIFCO-LYAMEC-GOTL hook-up. If you go back to the PR which first covered the hook-up between these entities, you will notice that GRIFCO turned the deal down in the beginning, but LYAMEC came back with a sweeter/negotiated offer. GRIFCO wound up buying GOTL at a lower price than what it was originally offered at. That was about the time I bought my first shares. The question that I pose now--If LYAMEC wanted GOTL so much, why didn't they keep it themselves? Instead they brought in GRIFCO and negotiated a sale at the reduced price. Then they subsequently invested $3,000,000 in GFCI stock. Now,more than a year later, they are working hard to get rid of GRIFCO. That part I can understand. What I don't understand is why they partnered with GRIFCO in the first place-they could have owned the whole company (GOTL) for less than the cost of GFCI stock. Very strange!! There must be more to this story than what has been published. Color me puzzled!
Royce
strongus you are "WRONG" .You continue to beat this dead horse and your post admits that this is just a guess on your part. Wishful thinking my friend. If you follow yahoo's financials, their statistics for individual stocks will always show current month's short interest and prior month's short interest. You do not add the previous month to the current month to get a total . The current month IS the total outstanding short interest. Now YOU prove otherwise.
Royce
I am having problems big time, accessing RB. Anyone else having a problem? I've been trying for at least 30 minutes.
Royce
I like it. I nominate strongus to take the plan forward.
Strong-I certainly hope you are right. I am sick of hearing about John Jarvis. He is the cause of all our problems with this stock IMO, and I would love to see someting postive develop with GFCI, for a change. But I've been disappointed so many times, that I'm not getting my hopes up just yet. Just "show me the money" and I'm happy. Do you have a line on which company Dial is hooking up with? If you do, why not share it with us.If not, don't be surprised at anything that happens with Jim Dial's deal-making. Good luck and in the words of Tiny TIM "God Bless Us All".
ROYCE
Want lay odds that you have a USEH/GFCI merger in your future?
If that happens, you are back in a Jarvis tainted shell. Check it out.
Royce
I LOVE IT!! YOU DA MAN!!
ROYCE
Another promise which replaces the promise made last week which replaced the promise the week before which repaced---get the picture?
Royce
Thanks for this post. Good stuff!!
I meant to say PLEASE!
Royce
Plesae do ! And thank you for this very informative piece of information.
Royce
Len, you must feel proud that the "Three Musketeers" hold such great influence on this board that you are able to convince investors to sell GFCI, even at a loss . Sad commentary.
JMHO
Royce
I like your style Blue!-eom
Please provide the link to prove that GFCI stated that they were going to acquire XOM ad nauseum. You keep repeating this over and over . That charge is beyond rediculous. We are all reasonbly intelligent, so you won't mind backing up what you keep repeating, with a link , or some proof that this actually took place. It sounds like some one was playing games at GFRIFCO's expense. I don't believe this came from GRIFCO, and I don't think you really belive it either. If you do believe it . then you're not as smart as I've given you credit for.
JMHO
I've never seen that article. How old is it? Companies make projections all the time, that are not acurate, and the market punishes them for it, just as it has punished GRIFCO. So, to me, an old press release proves nothing more than "irrational exuberance". Dial obviously missed the mark.He could simply have overstated the company'e prospects, based on information he had at the time. He may not be the brightest bulb, but does that prove dishonesty? I don't think so. So I guess we will have to agree to disagree. You are looking for/expecting one thing, and I am looking for a turnaround that will eventually bear fruit. Time will prove who is right.
Royce
BBB--10 baggers question is irrelevant. Hewlet Packard started out in a garage with TWO employees. SO WHAT! They are now one of the largest companies in the world. 10 bagger assumes that a company cannot, WILL NOT grow. So the number of current employees means nothing if the company is growing. His question is based on a false assumption.
