Thomas, Regarding your "questions".....before anyone begins to answer this latest round of the same, over and over and over and over and over, "questions", tell me this. What part of your "questions" (if any) will have a material adverse financial impact to current or future FCM/FNet revenues or net operating margins! Mr. "chicken little", this is the $million question....PERIOD! Prove to us that anything on this latest "probe" will affect FCM's/FNet's current or future financial condition. If, predictably, you by-pass this question of you (and your veracity, by the way) all your probing, nonsense "questions" are of no consequence nor value whatsoever.....GOT IT? Remember Senator Joe McCarthy with all his "probing questions". Everybody eventually got sick of his nonsense, was "on" to him, and look what happened to him!!!! See any parallels here? Bottom line.....we who have real money invested here don't give a rat's rear end what you think!!!!! What will it take for you to understand this!!!! Because of your behavior (focusing on utter nonsense that has absolutely no bearing on FCM's/FNet's earnings), I really meant it when I said that I bet you never met a mule that you didn't like!!!

You don't get to ask any questions until you respond with verifiable *"negatives", Sir. If you can't respond, your questions are nothing more than tired old attempts to deflect Seth's honest effort to garner your negatives about the company. As is obvious from your response!?, you are still playing your game. Play with FCM realities, as per the rules Seth laid on the table. Attempt at Deception*. #1 rd

Thomas Im not looking for your opinion on the facts. I know what you think. I am looking for you to either disprove the facts stated, or wait until I piece together the 2 final posts of Negs Vs Pos. I want to thank those that approve of my doing this challenge. For those that think that I am hurting the thread by responding to negative posters must realize that I have tried both tacts (ignore and attack) many times. This new approach in my opinion will at least take the personal garbage out and refocus on the investment. I urge all posters to not call other posters names. Indeed, keep emotions out of it. This is not about you and me. Its about whether the investment is going to be good or not. Thomas, I noticed that only you on this thread and STA_Bro on the other thread at least tried to answer the challenge. The rest of the fear mongers are firing blanks. Oh sorry, Willy said share price to be added to list. Fact is I respect a person that can back up an argument with facts. Inuendo can go along way but facts will defeat the guesser everytime. For the record my communication in the past with FCM about Sparrow Marconi is that she left because she did not agree with Franks decission on focusing corp direction on the Tempest and Fnet. If she is back, that is great, but I would bet that they parted not the best of friends. (Thats a pure guess on my part) Sethy

Thomas again I will repeat myself. I would very much appreciate a proper response to my challenge. You are more than welcome to ask questions after the first part of the challenge is completed. You stated to RD that you are still working on the rest of your responses to my facts. Tom, please, understand, only thing I want to see is the results of your hard work in 1 post stating all the negative facts you have uncovered. This is an example of how not to pay attention. From your post. My fact that you copied to your post was: 1)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Revenues have shown positive increase for 5 successive quarters culminating with this last Q. I quote Frank Peters "On April 30, 1999 we filed our 10Q for the March quarter. Sales for the quarter were $4,270,000. Net income was $382,000. Earnings per share were $.02" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Your response was as follows: I think it is safe to assume the bulk of revenues reported was from usat and jm best ? My opinion on those customers to follow. Thomas no disrespect but assume? I ran my thesaurus on the word "FACT" and low and behold assume was not there. As for your opinion Thomas at this point is of no interest to me. In the interest of fairness to the reader that is trying to do DD. I offer any person who feels that they have reason to be negative or for that matter even just worried to post the fact they are concerned about here to establish a balance. My goal is to build a pro and neg list that we as investors can refer back to for future discussions. I see where Mr. Harvey for example is concerned about Franks shares and options. Fine, post it as a negative fact to the list. IMO Mr. Harvey your post was a tad sarcastic. If I am incorrect, I do apologize. Fact is your point is worth a closer look. It has merit to be added to the negative list. I think this is a healthy approach. I hope you all agree Sethy
