    That certainly puts it into perspective Auto. You made an interesting point earlier - if this were a private business it would have gone under long ago. Investment capital is a precious resource and very difficult to get. So if a private business can't sustain itself and become profitable it goes under very quickly. But getting publicly listed means a business has much easier access to capital and a lot of small and micro caps take advantage of the CR system. The question is how long does a business deserve shareholder support - if it isn't even cash flow positive after 8 years and millions in funding what indication is there that it ever will be. Even if these guys get the money this time I ask how long would it be before they drilled a bunch of wells and become cash flow positive and then profitable - imo it would still be years away.

    Kinda makes me think that while listing helps good companies pursue growth, it is also a social welfare system or life support system geared to sustain dud companies that will never be viable. And AKK regrettably is not the only example.

    Cheers, Sharks
