Why is 5.4 million shares a big deal anyway?.Hows that Russian sale coming along?

Anybody notice that Turbodlution filed a prospectus Oct. 1 to register another 5.4 M shares?

The filing can be found here:
edgar-online.com.

I noticed that the filing indicated that financing has not been finalized for the TransBusines Group deal.

In the risk factors section, the filing added the following:

RUSSIAN FINANCIAL MARKETS

The Russian economy recently has experienced severe volatility in both
financial and currency markets despite the monetary support and financing
provided by the International Monetary Fund. The Russian ruble has been
allowed to devalue significantly and generally lacks convertibility into
other currencies. Political reforms in Russia continue to be instituted by
its current President, but the pace of reform is slowing and the recent
dismissal of a significant number of government leaders by the Russian
President has contributed to continuing political instability. These
developments have been accompanied by a substantial decline in the Russian
stock market.

It is uncertain whether stability will return to the Russian financial
markets. Increased economic difficulties in Russia could have an impact on
any potential sales of the Company's products into the Russian market,
including sales under its agreement with TransBusiness Group of Moscow. See

Operations -- Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and 1997."

Guess we all know how well things in Russia are going. They can't even afford to eat and are begging on the streets..
