ponyman, here with NRPI...

I've been holding NRPI for a while hoping and believing that they truly will eventually achieve their goals for growth. Thanks for making this very humbling post regarding NRPI that I think all should read:

"Hearing that same lofty line...for years" is clearly inaccurate when there has been no "update" for "10 years," (see NRPI heading). The OTC put the CE on it in 2009. Last year, notice was given that there was going to be "new officers" (heading) and then NV postings confirmed the same. Referencing management as POS, makes it sound like old management and new management are the same when clearly they are not and there is no evidence to lead one to that conclusion. If the "Blum family" is not listed in the filings, would it not appear that new management is exactly that and that the old management is out?

Here's a fact: NRPI's new management appears to be trying to clean up the shell and has been engaged in that endeavor for over a year, as evidenced by its state and OTC filings.

Question: If old management is out and new management is in; if the books are being reconciled; if the share structure is being streamlined (it has NOT been reversed); if NRPI has a new business concept (may the old headstone business rest in peace); if the OTC removes the CE (an expensive and time-consuming effort to get it right); and, if NRPI becomes a reporting company (as evidenced by the type of filings posted), isn't it worth letting the past rest and all the negativity go, "hoping" for a better future where possible profitability for BOTH old and new shareholders can be sought? Lots of "ifs" for sure, but, isn't success what we all look for? Or are we looking for fact-less rants and company failures? "Hoping" the CE comes off with all that has been seen from the OTC thus far sounds reasonable, doesn't it? Is waiting one plus years too long to see if a company can be resurrected from past management's mistakes; a place of no hope, of no success, of no updates or filings? Patience is a virtue.
