I agree with your comment about not dwelling on the past. My interest was precisely in the income stream you mentioned. Without any more info than I now have, I don't see any income stream at all. The only income other than investment by unnamed insitutional investors that I can infer is that from the sale to Intrine. In attempting to understand the solidity of the latter, I find a half completed web site and a few references to a site not updated since June of last year. That puzzles me. From where I sit, I don't see how to participate in achieving the two objectives you mentioned. My prime objective is assuring myself that I'm invested properly and that involves doing what I can to see and understand what few facts are available.

Byron, you said, <<Could someone tell me what all the worry about Intrine is about?> and then you answered your own question with this remark...<Silence is Golden>> I don't know about the others, but all I wanted to do was find out more about Intrine for my own personal reasons. Since I'm not a whiz at finding information on this damn thing like the rest of you, I asked for some direction, which if you read the postings, I never really got until this came up between stt and the others online tonight. But, I suppose I shouldn't be sur- prised by that revelation. ER

BG, excellent questions!! I'm sure many of us are wondering the same thing. I for one am curious as to why some of the "real good news" has to wait as our stock price continues to slide. There seems to be no let up in sight in the near term. However, Frank may be thinking that it is best to wait until tax sell-off time is done (i.e. after 12/31/97). THEN, good news coupled with a new year of trading will have a postive upward effect on the the price. BUT . . . Frank, please don't wait till it goes lower!!!!!!!! I'm also curious as to why all the recent press releases have not done better for the price of FTEL. Nothing seems to budge this stock above $5 as of late and I know the folks who bought above $5 are getting VERY frustrated. It seems to me that there is more than just "MM manipulation" to this mystery. There are many other stocks out there that can't even measure up to where Franklin is at right now, yet their prices zoom (and please don't everyone ask me for the list of those stocks!!). Something seems to be afoot here. It is now my belief there might not be any manipulation RIGHT NOW. The stock price is where it should be. The real manipulation was MM's spiking it up to $10.50 in the first place. IF there was "actual reason" for that rise, we would most likely be there right NOW more than THEN!! To encapsulate RB's statement of "running for the exit door" by the end of the quarter if Franklin can't cut it during this crunch time might not be such a bad idea. It is in my opinion that being in business since 1981, there should have been by now more on the "financial end" of things to support this stock way above its closing price on Friday. I think if FTEL doesn't show some promise by the end of February, it would be logical at that point to assume the quarter is not going too well and exit sooner. Even though I'll bet money that I speak for old-timers here as well, I'll just speak for myself: I've turned to more of a realist than an optimist since the November New York demo. The stock price has not shown much of an upward promise and I HAVE SEEN NO GOOD REASON WHY!!! I'll continue to hold and look forward to product orders coming in. BUT!!!!!!!!!!! SOMETHING HAS TO HAPPEN SOON!!!!!!!!! Cautiously Standing-By, Chris

Byron, Couldn't Agree More. IT IS CRUNCH TIME, the company is Focused on IMO the most important Product. TEMPEST will make or break Franklin. Of course just my opinion. Neil W

BG, I glad Intrine came up because I found another WilTel connection, Mr Topping. I feel a wind blowing and I smell a little something coming on that wind, don't you? Anytime TD shows up good things happen and I was happy to see him pop in.<GGGG> Pat, If you read this, what was that line that Jackie Gleason use to use? I think it's getting to be time to polish that one up and get ready to use it! Maybe it's just the holidays, but damn, I feel great about this stock and there isn't a post out there that can change my feeling. I feel that it could be a Green christmas, no matter how much snow is on the ground. Let the good times roll! Evan
