Hello MRKCO,

My questions to you and Boca Bobby as well as you other posters who are still giving artificial life support to Spooz with your posts on this dead horse are:



I also hold many shares in SPZI and ONCP for that matter. I can also tell you that my holdings in SPZI are significantly higher than what you posted that you hold. So my loss also stings. But I'm not in denial at all about what I own and don't feel I'm giving artificial life support to Spooz.

My holdings are also sitting in an ETrade account. I get to see them each day I open my account. I could probably have them all removed and take a total loss for tax purposes but would rather keep the constant reminder of the sharks out there just waiting to take my lunch.

As far as posting on the SPZI board goes, I feel I've made some good friends over here. I like to just have fun with it now. I moved on years ago and have 90% of my trades on the big boards now using options trading. I will make an occasional trade here and there on the pennies with the exception of one company and if you search my profile you will see my "energy" for them.

I wish you all the best and hope 2011 gives you much success.

Hey now MRKCO,

When I saw the writing on the wall, I said so. I think this company has no chance of ever recovering due to the lack of leadership of the companies CEOs and just bad luck. But I think most of it was bad management.

I should have figured it out a lot sooner and like Boca Bobby, I took a personal beating. One lesson I learned is not to fall in love with any stock, which I admit I did for a while. I tried my best to find out the most information, but sometimes that's not good enough.

You can make money with pinksheets, you just have to follow the MOMO. Bobbys options are certainly another way. Its about being unemotional and critical. I hope you didn't lose more than you could afford.

I have done well elsewhere. But because my job requires my total attention during trading hours, I cannot employ the education I have gained here. I want to learn more about options, and to be honest, I don't have the time. But I will retire soon, and you can believe I will seek knowledge. Because if I have learned anything in life, knowledge is king.

Good luck to you in all of your ventures.

MC
