| Hi there, ChickenLIPS . . .  Thanks for the post.  I have a few concerns which the other thread seems willing to blow off: 
 1- I ordered a case of product 4/29/98.  Got email confirm: #718.
 To date, I have not received the order.
 
 2- Inquired via email 5/13 on status of order: no reply.
 
 3- Inquired about distributorships: no reply.
 
 4- AVBC does not file with the SEC - BUT, they do have a web site.  It seems that they could post some info on the web site.  I should not have to rummage through 4000 thread posts to find out who are the officers and directors and who owns how many shares.
 
 5- There is a difference between investing and crap shooting.  I enjoy a balance of the two.  I understand your math and the risk/reward ratio.
 
 6- I have emailed AVBC again, asking for some investor info.  (Again, I should not have to get it from a thread.)  Info is OFFERED on the web site.  Quote: "For extensive investor relations information, or answers to direct questions, please send us an e-mail, and we'll respond as quickly as possible. EMAIL AQUA VIE .COM"  We shall see.
 
 7- Initally, internet marketing (paid-for sampling) seems to be a large component of their overall marketing effort (the ONLY component
 we know of - do you know of other distribution?).  Why are they unresponsive to concerned customers? (Like my emails??)
 
 8- AVBC has great potential.  The beverage market is staggering.  Even a SMALL market penetration can bring big bucks.  I will be satisfied to buy 20,000 shares @ $1.00 and get 10 bagger.  I call it risk management, some call it cowardice and not "understanding" BB stocks. Whatever. . . (It's OK to be a Bull, it's OK to be a Bear, it's NOT OK to be a PIG.)
 
 9- Here's something to pass the time while you wait for Antarctica to melt:  forbes.com
 
 Best Regards,
 
 Ted Gay
