Apologies if I made any remarks that caused offense. My comment that someone with more or less the same viewpoint as me buying in despite their reservations was a roller coaster rider was meant to be tongue-in-cheek, but now that I come to think of it, that really does seem to be the dominant personality trait driving OTC investors, especially those hunting in the OTC Pinks.

I'm new to this sort of investing, and I might well be coming to the conclusion that it's not for me. That I might be better off staying in the kiddie pool rather than the shark tank.

To me, it starts to feel like compulsive gambling, and I already have quite enough unhealthy addictions, thank you.

But NTEK is so tempting simply because my experience should lend me an edge in proving or dismantling their claims, at least to my own satisfaction.

But even if I decide it's all smoke and mirrors, shorting it seems very foolish when it's down in the pennies, and is so volatile that virtually any announcement ("NTEK will use USPS to deliver NP-1s! That means they're in partnership with the US Federal Government!") can shoot the PPS up 10% in a few hours.

I'm a tech guy, so I'll bet the tech. Whenever they deign to let me see it.
