Perhaps this can help the stock price of TSIS ... we all know there has been a lot of shorting in this stock. Maybe we will see some covering in the next couple weeks: To: +Rich Bailey (462 ) From: +Francois Goelo Sunday, Oct 17 1999 4:31PM ET Reply # of 464 "NAKED SHORTS" out of CANADA now BANNED.... The practice of Canadian Brokerages issuing NAKED SHORTS (Illegal short selling without a borrow) and even the plain shorting of OTC-BB's with borrow will be terminated, effective 23rd October, under pressure from the US Authorities... In the later part of this week, Short Positions initiated in Canada appeared to be in the process of being covered... This is happening to a bunch of micro-cap stocks on my watch list, that were heavily shorted in the past, such as WINR, EDUV, NBMX, VGCP, NBET, PMGI, GLCP, NVID, etc... All of them have closed in positive Territory on Friday in very adverse Market conditions that would normally have resulted in loses in the 5 to 10% range... ragingbull.com This might be a good time to add to existing Positions to speed up the price recovery and force a SHORT SQUEEZE... Regards, F. Goelo + + + PS: Other Posters are now starting to confirm the Canadian move: Message 11617509

(A more typical model of a "channel partner program" is when a manufacturing company uses independent manufacturers reps or independent distributors to sell its gizmos to other companies (often stores) which sell the gizmos to the general public.) FWIW, I applaud this step by TSIS. My opinion is that, properly done, TSIS's program will show significant results within a few months and really significant results within 2-3 quarters. And the automated surveys are a high-margin product for TSIS.)))))wrong, I can not agree,channeling in the case of TSIS is someone standing in front of a small group of extremely unsophisticated investors and relaying to them the investment advice of a 2000 yr. old dork.

It is interesting that it took this long to figure out there was a problem. The survey business has been touted for over a year with no measureable revenues. Now we find out if the marketing was wrong, or if there was never a market. Expect this would add some additional administration, working capital and credit risk exposure to the operation. jmt
