Hi, rbtree. Thanks for the steer to Fowler's website. It's even worse than AKOL's. I seriously doubt they exist. I think you can lump AKOL, FWOG, Nevada Holdings and the GeoScanex technology into the same scam. You might make money on the paper, but don't think they will ever make a divot in the planet. I e-mailed Fowler. I'll be interested to see the reply, if any.
