Hi Mark and All" As an after thought to my previous post you have to wonder about the timing on this Vancouver Sun Article. AFS is gaining a lot of momentum and is being noticed and recognized for its superior technology as well as having landed its first major contract. I hope the informed investor can read between the lines. Regards, Bonnie

Bonnie - I got AFT's Investor Package and have read it carefully. Nowhere can I find any specifics regarding AFT and EPA approval. It says only that it "WILL [my emphasis] meet EPA, CARB EURO II and soon EURO III standards." Do you know if AFT has actually received/filed/applied for EPA approval?

ALL/BONNIE *IMPORTANT* I have a lot of reservation about using the term "baby Ballard" .... I think there is a lot of danger in doing so. First - although Ballard certainly looks poised for success - there is no guarantee they will ever have a cost competitive product - I do not think it is wise to compare ATF with such a company. ATF has a cost competitive REAL product that can give good results NOW. Second - Remember the Bre-X fiasco ... every company that was within a 3000 mile radius of Indonesia had a "mar diatreme" bla bla bla ... like Bre-X" ... well - we certainly know what happened there. I want to make it clear that I am not comparing Ballard (an honest bonafide company) with the Bre-X scam. In any event .... let's give ATF the dignity to stand on its own merit for what _it is ... a viable, real and READY alternative to airborne ICE pollution .... SO - CAN WE AGREE TO STAY AWAY FROM USING THE TERM "BABY BALLARD" AND GENTLY REMIND ANY NEWCOMERS TO THE THREAD OF OUR DECISION AND POSITION ON THAT MATTER .... DEAL?? Thanks for your consideration on the matter, MB
