Judy,

I am one of the people who have no financial interest in the stock, and yet I follow this thread closely. It was first called to my attention by the Chris Byron article ( I read the Stocksite site daily), and I have subsequently gone back and read over all the posts, from the beginning.

(Incidentally, I noticed that you stopped posting just at the time that Auric showed up and the thread got really crazy, and I wondered if you were still holding your shares. I also wondered if you ever tried visiting the company, since you had posted that it was very close to where you live. Did you ever check out the headquarters?)

Anyway, I have followed the thread for educational and entertainment purposes. To me, it seems like a classic "pump and dump" scenario, and I intend to follow it until it plays itself out. If I am wrong, and it actually comes to something someday, I intend to learn from that, also.

In the meantime, I certainly don't wish the shareholders or the company itself any ill will, and I sincerely hope it all works out for you. It just doesn't make any sense to me to see such a huge market valuation on a company that has one employee, no business, one product that no one has much information on, no patents anyone can find, etc. $350 million market cap for such a company just seems ludicrous to me. I also find the postings of the supporters of the stock (including david travis) to be really childish and therefore suspicious.

I don't mean to insult you or your own judgment - maybe you know things that I don't about the company, or maybe your judgment is just better than mine. I am not claiming to be omniscient; I certainly could be wrong. I'm just honestly telling you what I think, and you did ask about the motivations of the non-AENG holders who hang out here.

Regards,
Barry

PS - I would be interested to know how you originally heard about AENG. If you want to respond, but don't want to do so publicly, I'd be glad to exchange Private Messages with you. I would ask you in a Private Message, but I haven't figured out how to generate one.
