I've sent out all requests for the TAVA Research Report and the Utility Report. There were a few email addresses which didn't work. Messages came back from Mail Administrator. Sue_Law... Steele@juno and a couple of others Sorry, I forgot email addresses. If you requested reports, and haven't received them. TRY AGAIN. If you don't hear from me within 2 days ... please know I tried ... but something was wrong with email ... at your end. Thanks, Cheryl Quest@hypercon.com

<<< I've been an open book from Day #1 with TAVA. >>> LOL, CK. You've never made even one slightly skeptical remark about this company. You've never corrected the wild pro TAVA hypesters/ignoramuses on the thread; you've corrected only those with a negative view. You once referred to Tava management as "our leaders!" (Heil Jenkins!) You are a cheerleader par excellence. This is not to downplay your contributions to this thread, which are legion, as everyone knows. Thank you. In fact, what you have done here is unique in my experience with online investment information. Again, thank you. But lay off Richard, at least the ad hominem assaults. Your attack was uncalled for. Lumping him with MW is ridiculous and you know it. Richard is the Prince of Darkness of the TAVA thread, and every thread needs one. (MW does not even qualify as a court jester.) Richard certainly makes mistakes. He welcomed MW to the thread with open arms when it was clear that MW was basically an idiot, despite a large technical vocabulary. Another example: Richard made many declarative statements about EPRI as competition, but they appear to be a bunch of caca. Richard: Try to be more careful. Nevertheless, Richard makes us think. (Unkile MW, who only makes us annoyed, like a swarm of mosquitos.) He's brought up some good point about the CDs, and he's certainly correct about 3rd quarter projections/expectations. You're out of line here CK, but I don't know what I'd do without ya. Best, Wade November CC: Lance Marks with Hannifen Imhoff Q: I have a question on the year 2000. You had about $1.5MM in sales in the last few weeks. Can we expect to see some of that generated here in the 2nd quarter, or is most of that revenue we won't begin seeing until 3rd quarter of 98? JJ - I would say, Lance, that when we spoke last about this, we said that we didn't expect to see much revenue contribution until our 3rd fiscal quarter. Definitely, that is pulling back into the 2nd quarter. Again, the budget timing here for people - there's a lot of money being thrown at pilot and early assessment activities so that people can really scope out their full expenditure requirements for 1998. So we're definitely seeing pull back from 3rd quarter into 2nd quarter.

Averaging In... >>>I decided ... NO MORE ... trying to trade TAVA. Too risky. Too much upside potential that can be lost for a possible short-term return. Sooooo ... if it pulls back to 8 1/2 ... I'll repurchase what I sold. And will just sit on it, until 4th quarter, when I'll assess the general market.<<< ********************************************************************** Cheryl: I joined the TAVA fan club in the last few months and will continue to Average up or down... I agree with you that trying to trade TAVA can be a losing proposition... There can be explosive upside moves on any given day... Holding and buying looks like the best strategy to me... Keep up the good work... Jim

What's my strategy? Very simple Cheryl. It's buy low sell high. I trade in and out a fair bit. It's that simple. One thing I try not to do is worry about the stock getting away from me. It may. But so far every time I have gotten out at a high I have been able to get in at a lower price. Being sceptical about Tava's fundamentals - relative to the expectations on this board - has made this easier. The few times I have stayed in because I worried about it getting away from me I have regretted it. I have sold much lower - fortunately though able to get back in even lower. I don't short it. Never have and never would at this level and time. As I have said a number of times this stock has explosive upside potential. Why would anybody short such a stock? Additionally my opinion is that Tava is on the verge of another breakout. Now that the second qtr. loss is past, the potential effect of the lock up over, and apparently no dip due to warrants being called I don't see any negative news on the horizon - only positive news and the expectation of real earnings for this qtr.
