I happen to be an AOL member as is Greg. On AOL one can have as many as 5 screen names. It didn't occur to me until tonight to look at the AOL financial message board for AENG information. I read the 96 posts and came away feeling that only one or two posters had caught on to the, IMO, sham. The following are posts from an AOL member. Your comments are invited.
Subject: S.I. Date: Sun, May 31, 1998 00:29 EDT From: Edcop Message-id:
I am just blown away by the megaton load of garbage put out by the insideous perveyors of deception on the S.I.AENG board. Goldfinger - the crime boss; 246810 - two faced double agent; Bullrider(self explanatory); Tastes like chicken - actually rattlesnake; and et al. You soul-less ghouls have quite a sense of humor using screen names that actually tell your victims something about your personality! I hope that ANYONE considering this stock will take the time to read (more like wade) through enough posts to see you for what you are. Hey Everyone - This collection of people (I use that word loosely) wants you to either sell your stock now or not buy it at all. That's their whole game plan. The reason? To make themselves money! That's it! They are not investors. They are SHORTS! PERIOD! As an aside - Greg, you are not getting much help on S.I, and I hardly know how you put up with it. They twist the truth without concience. Suggestion: Write a short generic reply that will expose/identify a "shorts" post and also refer new readers to a quick synopsis of their game. Arguing with them seems pointless as they ignore the truth and misrepresent the facts. I know some of those posts demand a reply but a lot of their drivel could be answered with the aforementioned generic reply. Hang tough.....Ed

The recent "article" in the New York Observer is a shameless sham and is not worthy of being referred to as journalism. How could anyone write an article about AENG and not once mention Shelby and crew? Get real. Any poster (HEY Charroncom) who refers to this "article" as a credible source of information brings my suspicions upon the credibility of their posts past present and future.Hello Everyone! The SHORTS are here on AOL
Subject: Short Amendment Date: Tue, Jun 2, 1998 13:45 EDT From: Edcop Message-id:
I have recently read statements on the S.I. board from Travis that the "game plan" of Auric Goldfinger and his gang is NOT to short the stock. I will defer to Travis' broader base of knowledge on this subject and retract my opinion that Goldfinger and his "gang" are shorting AENG. I fully stand by my opinion, however, that Goldfinger wants people to sell their stock. He is using deception and fear to achieve this. Don't let them scare you. All this thrashing about on the S.I. board is occuring for a reason. Maybe this engine is a bigger deal than we know. There might be some big players in this one we haven't heard from yet. Can anyone clue me in?
Subject: Head banging Date: Wed, Jun 3, 1998 13:40 EDT From: Edcop Message-id:
I was just curious. Does anyone out there follow other AENG discussion boards? If so, what is the tone of the chat? S.I. is doing some serious head banging, which I find quite distracting. The Ox2 engine has the potential to greatly affect a major industry segment. If this potential is realized share value is only a few pennies to the dollar. Many people wonder about the credibility of the Ox2.The bottom line is this - is it better and cheaper? The answer seems to be yes. A crude, poorly refined prototype engine performs well enough to impress a lot of industry people. What will a few years worth of tweaking do for this concept? I sold part of my position in AENG near the top. When you are not wealthy, profits call very strongly. Now I wonder if I should get back in. All the head banging is distracting and makes me wonder about the wisdom of being involved in AENG. But isn't that exactly WHY Auric etc. is making a fuss (in my opinion)? So we will either sell or shy away? Why would anyone WANT you to sell unless they wanted to BUY? With the limited information available to me I can only speculate as to what lies below the surface of these murky waters.Does anyone else have any thoughtful comments about this? Thanks......Ed

Well we're up 25% today! WoW! Let's all see if this is real interest or a "short squeeze". Either way could be good news for stockholders. What drama! What action! Let's charge admission fees to watch! Is this cool or what? Someone write a script and send it to the "Movie of the Week" Ha ha just having fun......good day. ..Ed |
