ALL:

I don't want to rain on the parade ... and dampen excitement and enthusiasm ... BUT ... Please stop any conjecture, pie-in-the-sky, talk about "who might buy out TAVA. There is ABSOLUTELY no basis for this discussion.

We've had a REALLY good week. Lot's happened. And, a lot will happen.

There's a lot to discuss that's based on facts ... instead of this "pie-in-the-sky" stuff.

I'm sure you all have heard of the "telephone effect". You tell one person. They tell another person ... down the line ... until a story is TOTALLY distorted. And in some people's mind, the last story becomes fact. If you want to "daydream" ... please do it in the Clubhouse.

Many new people are now coming to this thread.

More traders have been moving in over the past few days, based on volume. Most have NO idea what TAVA does ... except it's a Y2K play ... and they don't care. (I know, cause some have emailed me.) They look at a screen and see numbers ... and base their decisions on that. PERIOD. Many will leave fast, after they've made their quick buck ... and then they'll be back again ... goes on and on. That's the way the market is.

But, there's also some people looking for a GOOD long-term investment Most of these people are not wealthy. Trading on the net levels the field. They're trying to make money for college tuition for their kids ... help care for their parents ... save for retirement. Many of these people don't know how to do DD (Due Diligence)... on the stock and the people on this thread. didn't know - until I got burned ... then I learned REAL fast.

The market is not as forgiving now, as it's been over the past few years.

Most people don't go back 200 posts - they don't check the research site out. They look at the most recent posts - and then jump somewhere in the middle. That's what I initially did ... and that's what most of you have done. Don't make it appear that there's a possible "takeover" ... when there is ABSOLUTELY nothing to substantiate this. This is usually a thing that traders use to pump up the price. I've seen it before on other threads ... don't let this happen here.

Control your words, speculation and conjecture ... for some people, just because they see it in "print" ... it becomes their "reality". Or else you have people like Mike Winn who jump on this kinda stuff and make a big deal out of it. Forget "hot air balloon" ... he's the "hot air king"

Don't play into Mike Winn's hands. He took this enthusiastic conjecture and daydreaming out of the "Clubhouse" to cause trouble.

The "printed" word becomes validated ... if it's repeated often enough. Cut it off at the pass. Let Mike Winn ride off in to the sunset alone. Hi Ho Silver
