Here's the quote you used to come to your conclusions:

"Motorola's next generation cell phone? They haven't said whose battery they are going to use. We know whose battery they're going to use - all kinds of great things are coming for Valence."

Show me the exact portion of this statement that he states that Motorola will use VLNC's battery.

You accused him of either possessing material non-public information and using it to influence the stock or lying about the company to influence the stock, something that carries criminal penalties.

Here's what you wrote to me when I decided to explain to you that it would be in your best interest to stop posting about the matter. Advice given in good faith that you now want to throw back at me as libeling you.

Here's what you wrote which prompted me to warn you (which you misconstrued as some sort of threat):

His claim was that he KNEW that a Valence battery would be in Motorola's next generation cell phone. Not just in any cell phone. Not just in a Motorola cell phone. But in Motorola's next generation cell phone. That would be the equivalent of him saying that he KNEW that the Red Sox would beat the Yankees on an error by Derek Jeter in the 9th inning of the 7th game.

If Wolanchuk made such a claim, there would be two possibilities. (1) He knew in advance that the game was fixed. (2) He was lying.

Furthermore, Wolanchuk is not the equivalent of any common baseball fan. Wolanchuk was a professional "market timer" and stock tout, who sold his advice to investors. One who many times suggested he had inside knowledge of VLNC activities, and once even touted the stock during a VLNC conference call.


There is no way from that statement made by DW that you could determine that he was in possession of any kind of non-public material fact or lied about who was going to use the battery because he never said who was going to use the battery or what battery Motorola was going to use. So the statements you made about him are false unless you have some other outside proof of your accusations.

You may want to consult an attorney about the legal definition of libel and whether or not your public statements fit the legal definition. I'm not an attorney so I can't give you legal advice. It certainly fits the dictionary definition.

Larry:

Did you see what Zeev wrote about VLNC just a few months ago...<<If you have any of this garbage still in your pocket, sell it here between $1.25 to $1.5, and don't wait much after those 7.5 MM to 10 MM shares are distributed to the public here above $1.25, that is going to be a true "musical chairs" game.>>
