desusie, sorry but I had to go have some fun. Not all of us get paid for hanging out here 7 days a week, 18 hours a day to trash other people's investments for the purpose of driving the price downward (stock manipulation I do believe).

Yes, I read Temp's post and the mysterious unsigned letter he received. Most of it is someone's interpretation of what they saw and heard. I disagree with most of their observations but at least whoever it was did show up and try to find out what's happening, unlike others who just rehash old, old stuff that's meaningless now.

Does Temp have an agenda? Yes, he does. You found that post on the FNet thread, where 22 investors, including me, gather to share information and discuss our treatment as PP holders. That has little to do with how I feel about my FCM stock, on which I am most bullish.

Do I have any idea how last quarter went? Yes again! I quizzed all the FCM/FNet officers and employees present at the SHM and working at Franklin about many subjects including that one. Anyone with a calculator who listened to the shipping details & policy and minutes per month from various customers could easily figure out within a few bucks where we ended up for revs. You can wait for the official news :-)

Thomas, why are you here? What is your agenda? I don't see why you are wasting your time posting about a stock / company you personally dislike. As you said you are not short FCM. I would appreciate your honest answer. Witold

I was at the SHM. I did not detect any discomfort from Frank Peters, Peter Buswell or any other FCM person during the meeting that the unknown writer reported. The mood was generally upbeat.

Frank did give a clue during the SHM about the 4th Qtr. earnings. He said that FCM earnings are trending upward but there are spikes such as the USAT order last quarter. I am predicting $4.35 Mil in sales, just slight ahead of last quarter. This will reflect an increase in FNET sales and a decrease in FTEL hardware sales.
