Morning Edgy,

I enjoy your posts.

Not really sure I follow you on this one. GWR just laid it out there for all to see. MajorD added his input. The sharp guys on the board put dollar signs on the numbers, as they usually do. Coach and gwr and others always smooth out the rough edges. So I've been quite content with the input so far. Don't know what else to say or ask other than ECU has 400 employees and has their salaries been included in the costs of the number crunching here? We could be talking several million dollars right there over a year. But outside of that........

One thing I don't care much for is the cheerleading without substance that goes on when things turn for the better. When boards get frothy, I get antsy.

My only real concern is being absolutely unable to get a handle on the trading of ECU, and others, I might add. Most of my juniors trade on the Venture, and I just can't shake the notion that the Venture exchange has changed little from the days it was referred to as the Vancouver Exchange. I remember the serious warnings I got years ago from several guys at several brokerages that investing there was a sure way to lose it all and to stay away. Manipulators and con men galore, they said.

Though ECU has moved to Toronto, it's trading still bewilders me. But that's just me and my opinion. And I'm not accusing anyone of anything. I just put up with it all knowing the fundamentals of ECU and just assume I'll still be on this side of the grass when things really pop.
