Steve,
I think this idea is as right as the mail. A few of the transparent friends out there have discussed this type of thread for a long time. I think it will be a great tool for DD. We need a place to go first to see if our nano/micro capp has ties with The Usual Suspects. As you know, I will do my part to drop any foul play right here on the thread.
On that note....I think it of paramount importance to get the entire Astrom family on this thread as fast as possible. Here are the suspects.
Richard Astrom Christopher Astrom Mark Erik Astrom
These three have run over 40 companies into the ground. Mark is the CEO of Vision Works Media Group, and here's his most recent track record:

Vision Works Media Group, Inc. Board of Directors Approves a Buy Back of its Common Stock
Monday December 5, 8:30 am ET
ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 5, 2005--Vision Works Media Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VWKM - News) and wholly owned subsidiary New Screen TV, Inc. have announced a Buy Back of its common Stock. Up to 400,000,000 shares will be purchased by the company and retired to the company treasury.
"At this time, approximately 900,000,000 free trading shares make up the company float," said Naseem Shah. The company currently has 2,000,000,000 restricted shares owned by management giving a total of 2,900,000,000 total shares issued and outstanding. Shah added, "In consideration of the projected course of the company, with national distribution and an investment of more than $3,000,000 in the company, we feel the price per share is extremely under valued. Thus, the company will take this opportunity to reduce the number of shares available to the market. No Reverse split is planned for the company."
New Screen TV is available as a broadcast channel on WRCF-TV Channel 29 Orlando. WRCF-TV Channel 29 in Orlando, Florida recently signed a contract for the Houston market to distribute New Screen Programming in Q1 2006. New Screen TV's overall business goal is to reach 50 Million households.

No headlines from September to February....but that makes it hard to find the buyback PR!
ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 5, 2005--Vision Works Media Group, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VWKM - News) and wholly owned subsidiary New Screen TV, Inc. have announced a Buy Back of its common Stock. Up to 400,000,000 shares will be purchased by the company and retired to the company treasury.
BUSTED! That's the kind of crap the Astroms are known for. They announced a PR of a buyback, sold 16 billion shares, and then pulled the buyback from the newswire (I had to dig in the old thread to find it). For me, I would not want my name attached in any way to the Astroms.
