I remember that time, and I recall thinking it was a brokerage deal like Steve is supposedly doing now. On the other hand, the discussion was so rediculous with arguments about the weight of sand and gravel, that I just observed for the most part.
Like so many of the parts of this scam, there was just enough information/lies to make the claim possible if not probable. The constant volume of claims and pumping seemed to overwhelm reason. I came to think that some of it must be true and in fact if twenty or thirty percent of the claims were true, we would have all been happy.
I had made some very profitable trades on a few other companies that I knew far less about, just trading on volume and selling the news. I think for me this made it easier for me to go along with the doubts here.
Well, it's been interesting. Good luck, and don't forget to send Pv a Christmas card. lol
