I think that might just be a red herring - "Hey, our stuff is great! Just like Cognivia's!", when in fact CheapCeretin.com has already been shut down by the lawyers and the "Feds".
The reply to the mail I sent to them came back as
Quote:
Dear Customer,
THIS EMAIL HAS BEEN SHUT DOWN BY THE COGNIVIA LEGAL DEPARTMENT AND PERPLEX CITY
'cheapceretin.com' is selling illegal and dangerous fakes of the Ceretin cognitive enhancer drug and we are in the process of closing down their bank and website operations. Please do not attempt to make any transactions with 'cheapceretin.com' or any other similar sites.

CheapCeretin.com would seem to be the precursors to the current black marketeers.

More likely that the same people are behind both?
I know that the original site was related to a wave one card but it would seem likely that you would need quite a bit of equipment (including say for instance, a clean room) to create black market drugs and this kind of equipment is not usually freely available.
Although the CheapCeretin site has been closed down it doesn't mean the shadowy players behind it have just given up? This leads us the the possibility of a link between CheapCeretin.com, Cymbalistys death and Kurt's 'clean room'? On the other hand it could just be a field of Bananas?

"Exceptional items" is an accounting term. It relates to one-off write offs or gains that would otherwise distort the picture the accounts give. Having said this some companies, See Vodafone as an example, have these as a matter of course every year.
They are most likely to be items such as a closing plant or costs related to a discontinued product, eg capital items related to the withdrawal of C4. e.g. Closure/Sale/Revaluation of Vodafone's Japanese arm
It is unlikely to be write offs related to C6 unless they are REALLY struggling with it and don't anticipate a return. Usual accounting policy would be to recognise these costs over the life of the product, particularly as revenue would seem to be fairly certain.

The secure account option doesn't seem to be discussed. The screen says 'login has been disabled from your location'. I wonder if Kurt could work his magic to get us access. What does everyone else think of this?

Why wouldn't this story have been in the sentinel. If a government dept helped shut them down surely they would want some acknowledgement of this.

well in fFairness chris, it may have. we get only a little bit of the total sentinel. Also this has been the auto-responder fFor a while now -- like a year at this point. and it may well have been put in this state well before that. So it could have hit the fFront page like a year and a half ago.
anyway, it sorta has hit the sentinel, really.

Just gonna point out, in the pictures of test tubes, there was also "No A.." underneath evacuate(d)?
and that cloud thing is too obvious to ignore i think. I dont believe they would put a share report together and then mess up the picture in it.
My two bits !

Has Anna come back with any comments on this report. She was pretty keen to get her hands on it before
Quote:
In a fit of desperation, I even bought a share myself and then requested the report through shareholder relations.
, but after we've gone to all that trouble to get it for her we hear nothing in a week? It's not exactly a long report so what's she doing with it?
