I received an email from Valuespec questioning Raleigh's objectivity. I think Raleigh (who I've interacted with for three years) points out the risks in FTEL as clearly as anyone with the advantage of him having good depth and understanding relative to the potential size of the market and potential profits. -------------------------------------------- ValueSpec, In response to the email you sent me (quoted below); You haven't documented any shortcomings yet. FTEL is coming out of an R&D stage with no relevant historical numbers. The analysis must deal with the quality of product they have, the size of the market this product allows them to get into and the capability of management to succesfully put all the variables together to generate revenue and profits in the future. You don't appear to be able to conceptually understand this. Your posts are largely inaccurate, irrelevant and the issues have been exhaustively dealt with in the last 12 months on this board. I take RB's information, cross-reference it with many others on this board, call different people at FTEL 2-3 times a week, review it with my local technical experts, due further due diligence by further research on my part and then make a decision whether the potential upside reward outweighs the downside risk. FTEL's upside is almost immeasurable and I'm gaining increasing confidence in management putting this together. To repeat, you have offered nothing which hasn't been rehashed from every angle possible on this site and, combined with your "Hey, everybody. Look at me cause I'm a person who knows it all attitude", I feel embarassed for you on most of your postings. You're like a student who has just graduated Grade 12, walks into a room of doctorates with 30 years experience and, in a self-cenetered, cocky manner, starts trying to explain simple fundamentals to them. Try to view yourself in this manner and you will get an idea of how you are generally perceived on this board. You will get some support from other Grade 10 & 11 students, but you're generally out of your league here.

Counselor, Regarding me calling Ftel, I feel that I've made myself fairly clear, that I do not believe calling Ftel will elicit any different response than what is public information currently, and even you must admit details of releases are usually sketchy at best. That is why I recently commented that Ftel's filed SEC documents are the best source of information. As for other comments you made, I think we should stick to the germane issues, don't you. If any of my Ftel research is incorrect, let's discuss that. Your friend also, Tom
