Valuespec,

Although I never, EVER thought I'd be addressing you directly, I just had to repost these obnoxious (in my opinion; only speaking for myself) three lines from the end of a recent post of yours, for all to see:

1. <I'm tired of whinny, little babies complaining about my excellent comments.> [you meant "whiny," right?]

2. <Now, back to my regular, informative posts.>

3. <"waiting for the future to vindicate my words">

"[E]xcellent"? "[I]nformative"? "[W]aiting for the future to vindicate my words"?

I say this with no rancor, and am just making an observation, so don't get me wrong. But anyone (that includes ANYONE, me or anyone else included) with the chutzpah to write such self-serving drivel obviously makes me wonder what his or her agenda really is.

Yet even without the inclusion of any or all of these three lines, I've still wondered about your agenda. Why do I say this? Here's why...

Seems to me that your posts on this board have, for the most part, contained interesting combinations of seeming earnestness, mostly bad or irrelevant information, some good information, some not-so-good (again, only in my opinion) financial analysis, and indeed some outright untruthfulness (saying you won't post again for awhile, but then you do; this sort of thing).

All these things would make me question the credibility of such a poster (in this case, you). And now, with these three lines, you have confirmed this for me.

Again, please know that I'm not personally attacking YOU (you might be a very nice guy, and I'm sure we might have a good time drinking some beers together and watching a ball game!)--just questioning your continued COMMENTS. Finally, it is more than fair to wonder why you (and others) continue to post here so frequently, especially if you're not a Franklin investor. No? Logically speaking, this alone seems highly suspect to many of us...

I have to admit, you have done a great job with your due-diligence, considering that your are a novice in this game. But, for the more astute investor, a big part of investment success is to find a burgeoning industry, analyze the players, and find a company that you feel has a very good chance of succeeding. Franklin, has the best
quality DVG and a co-locate with Worldcom. Sales will follow as more companies understand that this VOIP is here to stay and begin to move in that direction.

As you gain more experience, I am sure that you will eventually begin to make some money. Let us know if anyone here can be of any help to you. I would still suggest a mutual fund, as your immaturity is showing on this thread. This can definitely be a detriment to you.

By the way, whats this about not owning the stock? I was pretty sure in one of your emails that you said you were a buyer?

Doug

Valueless, you said> "I have given a lot of good insights and information into this company" If it weren't you speaking with your head up your BUTT!, then I might agree. But since your misleading others into thinking Frank is taking this company into bankruptcy, then I shall once again prove you wrong.

btw....you never did come back proving that 300K is to much "initial money" for a Small Cap CEO! Figures!

Also you have misread the Jan 27 statement (which is why as Doug has posted, immature), shows your "lack of understanding the basic concept of READING THE ENTIRE STATEMENT, without taking "your part" and turning the thing around.

You stated that Frank W. Peters made an extra 100k, and didn't even bother to read all the statement. That's what I call being deceitful and everyone here ONCE AGAIN needs to understand this.

"Frank W. Peters, President.................... 1996 $275,056 (1)" $100,000 ________This>(1) denotes> Portions of these amounts were deferred. See "Transactions with
Management," below.

Did you not see the (1), of course you didn't Valueless.peck. That's not part of your agenda, telling the whole story, just ALL the negative side, and more from someone who is DUMMER THAN A BOX OF ROCKS.

So that you understand it, the final value of the (1) came out to>

On September 20, 1995, the Company issued a promissory note for *******$100,000******, bearing interest at the rate of 8%, to its President, in lieu of bonus compensation, included in the table above, for attaining certain corporate objectives. The note is payable in twenty four equal monthly installments of $4,523. No payments have been made to date on this Note, and ****the President has waved***** the default provisions

OTHER TRANSACTIONS>, and I might note that most where DEFFERRED, and either waved or converted into shares, with latter being less.

During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company issued notes for an
aggregate of $217,000 payable to its President, Frank W. Peters, in lieu of
compensation, included in the table above. These notes bear interest at the rate
of 9% per annum and are due and payable as follows: $12,000 due on August 20,
1995, $65,000 due on August 20, 1997, and $140,000 due on January 5, 1999. Mr.
********Peters has waived any defaults or penalties with respect to the unpaid portions
of these notes*******. The $140,000 note is convertible into shares of the Company's
Common Stock at a conversion price of $.10 per share. DONE!!!!! No Money!!

During the year ended June 30, 1995, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares to
its President, Frank W. Peters, upon exercise of options previously granted. The
exercise price was******* paid by the cancellation******* of notes in the amount of $92,000 and accrued interest in the amount of $42,000. DONE!!! Paid $ 134,000

During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Company transferred 4,200,000 of its
shares of FNet Corp., a subsidiary of the Company, to its President, Frank W.
Peters, FRANKS VALUE FOR PRESIDENT OF Fnet. DONE!!!

During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Company *******deferred payment of $117,000****** in compensation, included in the table above, to its President, Frank W. Peters, with his permission, for an undetermined time period.

On September 20, 1995, the Company issued a "promissory note" for $100,000,
bearing interest at the rate of 8%, to its President, in lieu of bonus
compensation, included in the table above, for attaining certain corporate
objectives. The note is payable in twenty four equal monthly installments of
$4,523. *******No payments have been made to date on this Note, and the President has
******waived****** the default provisions !!!!!!!!!!!!!

On September 20, 1996, the Company issued a $100,000 promissory note to its
President in exchange for services rendered in fiscal 1997. No compensation
expense was recorded in fiscal 1996 relating to this note. Bonus compensation
expense of $100,000 will be recorded in connection therewith in fiscal 1997. The
note bears interest at 8% per annum, and is payable in thirty-six equal monthly
installments of $3,134.

On December 13, 1996, the Company granted an option to purchase 1,000,000
shares of its Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.31 per share, the market
price as of December 13, 1996. *******The options were granted to key management
employees for ((((((((((achievement of certain goals)))))))))). The options are all currently
exercisable. Of the options, 500,000 were granted to the Company's President,
Frank W. Peters, and 100,000 were granted to its Chief Financial Officer, Thomas
Russell.

During the year ended June 30, 1997, the Company ********deferred payment *********of $112,000 in compensation, included in the table above, to its President, with his permission, for an undetermined time period.

As of June 30, 1997, the deferred compensation of $117,000 and $112,000 was
converted into***** two promissory notes*****. One half of the principal balance of the
notes is convertible into shares of the Company's Common Stock at a conversion
rate of ****50%**** of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of
conversion. DOESN'T THAT SEEM FAIR!!!!1

On October 7, 1997, the Company's President exercised an option to purchase
1,333,695 shares of the Company's Common Stock at the exercise price of $.10
per share.

First of all MR. Value.less!!! its obvious to anyone who READS the entire statements herein, understands that Frank W. Peters did not get everything the BOARD entitled him to receive. Furthermore, a CEO owning 29% of the company is very fair. If I were CEO, I would have a majority stake too, and probably much larger.

When Franklin Telecom does get into the TEEN'S and beyond, Frank would have put enough into this company `blood-sweat' that he F'n well deserves to be a MILLIONAIRE 100 Times over!!!!!

What the hell have you done lately beside's cut companies in the GROWth stage? Your sure showing your ASS lately.....gggggggggggggggggggggggg
