IBM again? Stockholds do you know about this?
by play7 October 10, 2007 8:09 PM PDT: Again does the stockholders know about this? There been no news about this, stockholders by law must know of such occurances.

Sooner of later Linden Lab the FCC will put a stop to all the false reports of IBM and you. Just like gambling, you will be found out sooner of later.; Like this Reply to this comment
