Eli, I hear ya on the Wall Street ambulance chasers! Here in Chicago, the greedy b@st@rds are advertising now on the local news radio AM station looking for plaintiffs. Only in America, where anyone can sue anybody any time for anything, with very little threshold of pain should a suit turn out to be frivolous. Reminds me of that old Saturday Night Live sketch where the woman says, "I've always wanted to sue someone". (comedic pause) "But don't I need a reason?". LOL! Regards.

I'm afraid you're right, Eli. He did tell us to look to the 10Q's for guidance on how things are progressing. But I was thinking he could keep us up to date on general progress in the broader sense, without making any specific commitments that the parasites could grab hold of. But as you say, in view of their recent experience silence will likely continue to be regarded as the best policy. Bummer! - T -

Speaking of facts: *INFO FOR NEW INVESTORS* Here are the recent facts. I leave it to the reader to determine VLNC's merits unencumbered by my point of view: VLNC announces new Sales VP with extensive market sector background: content.entrypoint.com 66d8465b1b&bid=1 VLNC announced in recent weeks three purchase orders: biz.yahoo.com biz.yahoo.com biz.yahoo.com VLNC?s joint partner in Korea, Hanil, announces commencement of lithium-polymer battery production: etnews.co.kr\|07 And in late January, 2000, a trade publication confirms this: southafricansources.com CIBC announces coverage, with a buy recommendation: biz.yahoo.com A newspaper in Belfast, Ireland, the Belfast Telegraph, writes articles about VLNC: Message 13539540 Message 13583044 An international newsletter, Taipan, has recently(May 2000 issue) come forwards with a positive evaluation of VLNC potential: taipanonline.com Additionally; one of VLNC?s customers, satellite phone networker Globalstar, is announcing the following coverage patterns within which their VLNC powered product will most probably be available: globalstar.com Free Edgar for recent SEC filings. Please note these filings have been an accurate reflection of the companies position to date: freeedgar.com 5551&UseFrame=1&FormType=&DateFiled=&CompanyName=VALENCE+TECHNOLOGY+INC Short holdings have increased by 70% in the past month, to just over 4.1 Million: viwes.com Institutional holdings jump from 8.4% to 18.8% in recent quarter, principally on the strength of one investment house establishing a private placement position: insidertrader.com Note that VLNC has been a developmental stage company now transitioning, as proven by the above publicly available news releases, to commercial enterprise. As such it now becomes a question of whether management can meet run rates over the next year that they've committed to. This is from a standing start of zero. Future earnings releases will prove, or deny, this aggressive goal. John~ DISCLAIMER: I hold a long term long position in this stock.
