<<" If you don't like the stock then sell it.">> <<That's the reason I don't it. This dog won't hunt.>> Ned, If you don't own it, please buy some. I need to know someone else is having fun out there along with me. Don't worry about the financials, this is a developmental stage business. Great if they made a penny or two, but so what if they don't. The key is the concept and the process of achieving the goals. Of course, a word once in awhile on whats happening would be nice. By the way, they don't sell wine nationwide yet. Right now, their operations consist of a few retail stores, some food and distribution businesses, a winery in Italy, rights to Italian family coats of arms, and an advertising agreement that depends on them being ready and able to deliver product before there will be any advertising. They have some ideas in regards to marketing and distribution that are in their infancy but include direct mailing to selected Italian family names in New York, acquiring specialty food lines and distributors, acquiring retail outlets, and acquiring specialty type facilities like vacation hotels or bed and breakfasts or some profit center businesses that will also act as customers to the food and wine distribution part of the business. Matthew doesn't appreciate your concern because he is so into the company and the tall efforts of all involved that he can't rise to the role of being the one who has to continually placate investors and answer specific questions about ongoing inside events that are continually unfolding. He knows that when there is news, it will be released, and until then, they have their hands full. This stock and company has an element of faith inherent in it's stock ownership. If you can let things unfold as the story developes, they say you won't be disappointed. If you want an up and running company with a normal price to earning ratio, your in the wrong stock. The web site is essentially complete except for the product pricing and ordering. You can bet that they are working on that but there are hurdles to overcome. The web page reaches world wide, but the wine sales are restricted to New York (New Jersey, Conn.?) The Mediterranian Diet line and gourmet foods products are not ready to go nation wide, the Italian family labeled wines are best suited to direct marketing right now and most of all, they are working on the financial aspects of making everything happen. This is a shoestring operation that will succeed on the labor and dedication of the employees. There are multiple action items going on at present that all have to come together in the future. Have faith and watch it happen. IMHO Slim
