Budd: With the exception of Apel, are they gangsters? They certainly act the part of thugs and liars. No one interested in preserving their reputation not to mention their wallet would get in league with this unsavory bunch of OTC vandals and sharks. Do you remember that IEquity Corp gala in Malibu last year when one of the managers of the venue was shocked by the "sleaze," as she put it, that assembled there? Now, her comments don't sound irrational. On the contrary, she seems to have been an astute judge of character. Dr. Apel's experience and the Dickensian manner in which he was treated show the real side of the quasi-thugs running this con. He was treated just as shabbily as the regular shareholders. The SEC knew exactly what they were doing by hammering down this bunch. The next time Mayor and Barrera issue another packet of lies and deceit, request air sickness bags.
