sunshine, That's odd, because it seems like those who have been in touch with the company... have been lied to over and over. That's how it seems to me, anyway. So, no, it doesn't seem like anyone who talks to the company is better off than anyone else (maybe worse off). In fact, many here held onto their shares BECAUSE they took the word of those who'd spoken to the company (and the company seems to have filled them full of hot air). As far as I can tell, the company has rarely been direct and forthright with shareholders who contact them.
