Wade, I understand your comment, and frankly, I look at posts (mine and others) and find it hard to present opinions about BB stocks without someone correctly pointing out that the facts are not all in.

Many of the stock threads on SI are about BB stocks. Most can't speak of a product, revenue, recognized management, financial placement, and what we hope to be soon audited financials for 10K and subsequent 10Qs. This company is different than most BBs from those respects, and many of us are getting excited.

I hope that you do see the effort that many of us are putting into this board in trying to gather information, so that we all can make a solid assessment.

As for the ESVS not having the cash. I wouldn't believe ESVS would blindly try to raise $50 Million (as you point out they have $380K to begin with themselves). IMO they must be getting the confidence from someone, group, or entity to proceed. If that makes sense to you, then you might believe that someone, group, or entity sees the value in creating synergy between these companies, strengthing the management, and providing the financial support to take these companies forward.

Thanks for keeping me honest and Good luck to you!

Wade,

This is certain. Many of us are spending long days on these computers. Particularly Tahoeman.

Though I've been in NETZ stock since last fall, I'm relatively new to SI. But in the course of my experience here, I've found Tahoeman to be diligent, reasonable, and above all, helpful. In the course of doing this, we all get spammy sometimes. Especially, when on these computers for so long.

Heh, maybe we actually need a little advertising to wake us up! I'm sure, in the end, we'll hate most of these new commercials just like we do tv commercials. I'll be the first to admit: I'm not exactly thrilled about being captured by an internet version of the famous Saladmaster commercial. But some stuff will pop out highly creative. Zulu-tek-like, I hope.

I've described this previously, but this will give some of you a background on how I got involved. I've been carrying a few thousand shares--wealthy, I'm not--since the Asian crisis hit. Though I've traded in many areas, I always kept NETZ, and a couple of other tech-biotech-type stocks waiting for one of 'em to pop. I knew they would.

Unfortunately, in order to increase my position in the BBC/CAH pharmaceutical distribution merger, I withdrew from NETZ and others, and put all my eggs into the BBC basket. It was a good strategy: I was a couple thousand bucks up and the merger still hadn't happened. It looked good, the S&P500 had already agreed the new company would have a place in its index.

Then, boom, a WJS report that the FTC killed the deal. Trading halted, before the stock even opened at the bell. When it did, the quickest I was able to get out was at 46 5/16, this after it being up to 52 1/2.

The sadness is that within this three day window NETZ popped without me. When I finally managed to get back in, it was at positions a little under and a little over a buck. I guess this makes me ever more determined to be around for the next pop.

This is why you see my personal vigor in all of this. What should have been a $6K elevator ride became a loss and a market-maker beat deal-type position in my current NETZ holdings. So it goes.

Plus, I haven't written much in recent years. It's fun to write again. So Wade, there you have it. I think everything's going to work out okay with this stock. Some see it fishy? I do not. And neither does Tahoeman, among others.

Many other questions present themselves, but I need a drink

Wade, LOL. Yeah, no kidding. Just for the record, I took my position
in NETZ as a very speculative play in the what if internet advertising
takes off market. Nothing more, nothing less. I figured if they
hit 10-15 bucks in a few years, then great. If not, it is my play
money, no big deal if I lose it.
