RE:Dave ,we know you are a presold short participantolejos; I know THE dave looks like a short, but he's even sicker than that..... he has no stake in PTA, but has been touting CNE as a takeover candidate (most often being taken out by Pacific Rubiales) so long that any news involving other companies' prospects strike the very fiber of his sorry existence. If he can't cheerlead CNE to a $20 sale price, his life is over. He screamed loud and clear while CNE went up to $8, but has received realistic reviews (as in "shut the fuggup") since. Look at CNE's bullboard with -- and then without (ignore) -- the dave and you'll see what I mean. He has polluted other sites for which I have a holding interest, but he always goes away when I hit the IGNORE button. Thanks for your posts, olejos, Popps
