Is VSEA's CEO telling the truth?

FALCON: Can you name one customer that hasn't bought your equipment because of any Internet postings?
AURELIO: Of course not, but I can't say that I don't know -- you know, the other way to ask that question is, who didn't buy it because of this nonsense. I don't have an answer to this. Our customers, our investors, are too polite.
FALCON: I understand they're too polite. But you have about a hundred potential customers, as I understand your testimony earlier?
AURELIO: That's correct.
FALCON: So out of that hundred, can you name just one that has declined to purchase because of the Internet postings?
AURELIO: No, I can't do that.
FALCON: Your shareholders, can you name one shareholder that has declined to purchase because of any Internet posting?
AURELIO: No, I can't.
FALCON: And can you name one employee that has refused to continue working in your company because of the Internet postings?
AURELIO: No, I can't.
FALCON: Can you name one employee that has -- one prospective employee -- that did not come to your company because of any Internet postings?
AURELIO: No. But I can tell you that people that have been interviewed have asked what all this nonsense is about.
FALCON: What do you tell them?
AURELIO: That it's a disgruntled employee or employees.
