RE: Hopkins' Secret Project PRUGUSECFC

Hopkins got the 1989 proxy today, according to our octogenarian undercover operative in Cocoa Beach. (As you know, Operative BA has been posing as a philanthropist since our 1991 launch of Project Griffon -- The Prequel.) This new intelligence means:

1. Hopkins is about to try a new crowdfunding scheme, code-named Project PRUGUSECFC. We believe that stands for: "Profitable Repurposing of User-Generated U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Filing Content."

2. Online SEC filings only go back to 1994. Hopkins could only have obtained the 1989 proxy through an SEC open-records request. But he has not previously said he did that. What else is he up to?!

I'm trying to earn $6,000 quarterly, mostly through sponsorships of $5 per reader, plus limited ad sales. Please use the "Donate" tool in the green sidebar, upper right. Or mail cash/checks payable to: Jim Hopkins, 584 Castro St. #823, San Francisco, Calif., 94114-2594.

  1. Jim, It is a good thing that you are distracting management.
    Keep up the good work.
