Well I guess I can't help but chime in on this one. Msgbrdinfo, you slay me, but I'm sure you have your reasons for posting your recent messages. Lay out whatever reasons you want, but my opinion is that you're frustrated with the current pps, and your frustration is getting the better of you. If it makes you feel any better, WE ALL are a bit frustrated. But don't let your frustration blind you to what is still a gem of a stock if it's polished properly. This IS NOT an overnight penny stock that you buy 50,000 shares of at .01, wait for the fliers, mailers, e-mails, and pennystock.com companies to pump, watch the price rise 50 cents in a week and jump out before it crashes to .001. If that is what you invested here for then you're in the wrong stock. Try any of the other million pennies out there solely geared for this. This is truly a LONG for those with enough patience, perseverance, and BALLS to wait it out. If financially you took a bath here and now your in a jam..well...then you shouldn't be investing in pennies PERIOD! (I hope this isn't the case but it sounds like it). Why is this a good play RIGHT NOW? The stock has yet to be "professionally" pumped. That may come, but I think they're gearing for the long steady climb rather then the pump and dump. Second, every major oil producing nation is either unfriendly to us here in the US or unstable. Domestic oil producers have a huge upside should things continue to destabilize. Even if they improve, the demand for oil is increasing at such a dramatic rate that domestic oil WILL be in HUGE demand. Ever wonder how long a full truck sits waiting for a buyer???? I'd venture a guess and say NEVER. I'm no oil guy, but I'm guessing they're not sitting around saying..."Gee, wish someone would buy our oil!" In other words...Inventory is sold before it even leaves the ground. Not a bad business when everything you make is sold as soon as it leaves the factory. Go ahead and tell me about another company/business that does this. Even beer sits in a warehouse! So increasing leases, oil rigs and so on is really a good thing when you know it will all bring a pre-sold commodity to the market. I could go on and on, but what I guess i'm saying is RELAX!!!! Yes..the pps is tooooooo low, and yes...we are all quite frustrated. But don't let your frustration overshadow your ability to see what is simply an big potential oil play waiting for the right time to show it's hand. If the powers that be decide to take their money and run, leaving us all in the lurch, then I gambled knowing the odds were against this and the house beat me. Still better then playing at Foxwoods!
