I believe most are familiar with Japanese admiral Yamamoto’s prophetic words, following the attack on Pearl Harbor, “ I fear all we have done is to wake a sleeping giant, and fill him with terrible resolve”.

Well it looks to me like that sleeping giant has begun to stir. (Retail investors) Present market conditions, the power of the internet and companies like Agoracom have provided retail investor's with the opportunity and ability to ensure we are no longer taken advantage of. We are no longer powerless if we unite as a group. I agree naked short selling should be stopped but there is even more to be gained by uniting. The antics recently attempted by Rosseau regarding NOT is a prime example of why there is a need for action. A Chamber of Mines may be just the organization we need to start a ground breaking organization that would be good for all retail investors. I think we should as a group discuss the merits of such an organization while attempting to determine if this is a worthwhile pursuit for NOT Shareholders. Let’s ensure we remain vigilant and take those steps necessary to protect out rights as shareholders.
