Mark,

<<I think it might be a good idea that the next time you are speaking to the principals at ATF, you might ask them if they are contemplating a news release or P.R. to currently update and reiterate some of the most current status of negotiations with prospective clients>>

These are often very sensitive and ongoing talks - stock exchanges frown on "forward looking statements" that's what caused the clarification to be issued last week. If I were the company I would steer very much away from this .... when something is a done deal - announce it - until then, say NOTHING.

<< and to make, in effect, some solid believable & official remarks
from ATF, re the validity of their achievements and vision and capacity to sustain their focus. >>

They have been around for 13 years - I would call that pretty good focus and vision.

When I lose confidence in a company, I have found it is best to pull out and watch from the sidelines (I am NOT suggesting you do that) - just saying that is my personal approach.

Best of luck,

MB

Hi Mark:

I think that investors should call Gerry Klopp directly and discuss this with him. Personally if I were in Mr. Klopp's shoes I wouldn't respond to the likes of Mr. Baines either. Like I have stated in a previous post, people should be able to read between the lines on that shoddy article and see it for what it is.

Regards,
Bonnie
