AG, say it is not so. Did you really say this about one of Ashton's many systems? Can't believe it. You are not turning into a bull are you? "...the System will further...the development of a national market system by promoting economically efficient execution of securities transactions, fair competition among markets, best execution of customer orders, and an opportunity for orders to be executed without the participation of a dealer. The System provides a new and potentially efficient way to match and execute trading interests. It is principally designed to meet the demands of institutional traders and other market professionals that desire VWAP-based transactions. Use of the System may result in enhanced liquidity for investors and increase the ability of investor orders to interact directly with other investor orders." You're not gaining a shred of integrity and speaking something that resembles the truth are you? Why the change? No upon reflection, I just don't think you could change. Why would your buddy doc be telling people to sell if you believe that. The above words just can't be from you, the one who calls Ashton a scam. If not from you, then from who? My apologies if it was not from you, but much appreciation if you would be so kind to point me to the correct source. Cheers!

AG you are so dull that a response I posted on June 25, 1999 is still applicable, so I'm reposting it. I'll post it again in another three months if you still haven't bothered to upgrade your understanding of ASTN. A year from now I'll still be posting the same unless you get some new material. BTW the # of fully diluted shares depends on the conversion price of the convertible so you have framed a question so that it cannot be answered correctly. Gee, I thought those sophisticated tactics went out with high school debate teams. <<AG, you and Mr Seuss have had some real points about the downside potential here. (Since about $7 or so) You lose credibility with those of us who know, when you attempt to confuse sellers of unregistered stock with real insiders' sales. Do you believe this board influences the market that much? You have shown in your posts and replies that you are sophisticated enough to know the difference between a form 144 and a form 4 sale. And you must know that people or trusts that invest in private placements often have a rule to "triple and out" or similar because of the degree of risk that they incur. Your arguments against the successes of ASTN have at best been specious and wandering. I guess, to you, these are sound arguments or you would not put money on them. I don't want to stop you from posting, I like hearing the best argument to not own a stock I'm long in. I'm just asking you to upgrade the quality of your arguments, the 144 filings are too weak. Please convince me that this is a P&D. Respectfully, Zebra>>
