Mailman - RE>>The hypers were up a full night last night posting (look at time of the posts)<< I was up at 3:17am EST last night, why do you think that was so late...especially if you live in PST where it is only 12:17 am...hardly a late nite posting, best time to get on the net actually. RE>>The previous post asks a good question as to why someone hyping the stock would register as a seller.<< You finally made a valid point. I wondered the same thing. Is this Robert Cohen of Robert Cohen & Company?

ATV is a stinking scam. The hypers were up a full night last night posting (look at time of the posts) in an attempt to dilute and take the STING out regarding the info of the share offering. They do not discuss it or what it is all about. Nor did the company tell them about it beforehand. It seems this info was out a full day with no one knowing or discussing it on these boards The times on the posts mean nothing. Buzz Mills (aka, Chief Hypster), for example, is on the West Coast, so a 3:00am post really hit the board at midnight PST. Not so late for webheads. THIS IS NOT THE END. The company will keep printing and issueing stock as THIS COMPANY HAS AN EXCESSIVE BURN RATE for whetever reason. Anyone investing here can rather take his money and dump it in the sewer at least there is no commission charge. The word "excessive" is relative. What are you comparing it too? You might be right, but you're not convincing. This stock has no liquitidy. If you buy say 20,000 shares at 1 5/8 and try to sell them you can depress the price to 1 3/8 or lower. You may be right about the liquidity; what bearing does that have on the viability of the company? The previous post asks a good question as to why someone hyping the stock would register as a seller. Your first good point. Even if this company should have a product. This product will take years to make this company at significant profit levels. By then the dilution of shares will be so high that the current common shareholders will be a small minority of the total shareholders. This is speculation and opinion on your part. Again, maybe you're right, but its nothing for the rest of us to rally around. Do yourself a favor and do not listen to the hype on these boards, you will not regret. I lost money on these shares and It was due to the hype on this board, after doing research afterwards I discovered what a sham this investment and hype is. Please share some of that research. That is the purpose of these threads.

Hi, Rather than restating (hyping) your perspective, as you have numerous times (I think that everyone has your message), I am very interested in your "research afterwards." I would like to know the specifics of what you found out. By specific I mean: dates, filings, press releases, information that is verifiable via independent sources, etc.: the whos, whats, wheres, whens. The content of your research is interesting and valuable to me. Your opinions are not. I can figure out the whys, thank you. RC did not say he filed, nor did The Atheist. I cannot and won't speak for RC or anyone else. Just as a matter of self esteem and pride, men mailman, it does you no good to blame others for your decisions (buy and sell) which lost you money. What's worse, blaming prevents you from learning. All stocks are risky, but this stock has a greater risk than say MRK or T. But risk means a sharp double-edged sword. Above average returns if it works out, above average losses if it doesn't. It's a simple matter of risk assessment and an appreciation for the fact that there is no "easy money" on Wall Street for the small investor. So, buckle up, and share that research with us, but repeating your same old message won't get my attention again, Ed

The tone of the posts are somewhat subdued. You just cannot sidewash the new stock offering so you just try to minimize or dilute it. My research was not limited only to the financials but also to many other issues As to the repeat of my valid points why is it never tiresome to listen the the daily naseating repeat of the hypers with the daily close and repeat of the url and the links on the internet to interactive TV articles which don't even mention iatv. It is sad to see how far people who were conned would go to hype their investment rather than be honest and admit they were conned. What is aggrevating is that they want others to bail them out and sink their money instead, Here is part of my research 1) The company continues to lie and I can testify to it lie 1 the company said that financing of 25 mil. will be in beginning of oct. lie 2 the company then said they would not have to issue new stock and have $3.5 secured have to run will have t finish later
