John;

Yes, Brad Mattson did found NVLS. I don't know the
details, but maybe he gave a little too much up to
the venture guys the first time around (if anyone
know's the real story I'd like to know). He now
owns 21% of MTSN. With no debt, the only
consolidation that would occur involving MTSN
would have too significantly enhance current
shareholder value. I understand if you look at
companies above $50MM sales, NVLS and MTSN came
in first & second overall (with 0.1 point). I
own only 1 position in this area, MTSN. I've
put up quite a bit there, just over 20% of my
holdings. If you were to diversify, it
probably is a good idea, - I'd choose NVLS.

Best of Luck,
John Stewart
