Good Evening Duane: Just being on a golf course would be a blessed relief this time of year no matter what the score. Find the remarks regarding shorting APAT, or other stocks, interesting. However, I think knowing the Company and where they have come from and where they are going lends more credence to my type of investing. I feel the extreme Due Dillegence performed by both the State of South Dakota and the Aberdeen Economic Devlopment Corp. before committing funds to APAT to finance the new facility is more valid than the charts and graphs of an R@D Company becoming a manufacturer and distributor of products. I also feel that Dr. Jim Pooladdje, formerly of Cienna Corp., accepting the position to head the new facility in Aberdeen speaks volumes. Why would the Chief Design Engineer leave a Company such as Cienna for the lowly, unknown, APAT? Equipment is still arriving at the Aberdeen facility. Hiring staff is on-going. What product will be produced first? I don't know. When will contracts be announced? I don't know. Auric seems to think that I have been privvy to that information and sharing with you VIA telephone. As both you and I know that is BS. Certainly make no difference to me what other investors do, short, go long, whatever, regarding APAT. I have been purchasing for the past few years and continue to do so. May have to buy my wife a lawn mower instead of a snowblower as the 50 degree weather in Montana is removing the snow ANatural. Hope your Holiday Weekend has been filled with lots of golf, good food and Family. Hit Em Straight Jim
