I vaguely recall hearing something about California/TAVA/Blue sky. I think it was a technicality, some sort of filing that had be taken care of. Maybe it was one of the things holding up NMS status. Anyway, when I heard about it (last month I think), it didn't set off any alarm bells with me.

TPRO/TAVA and hundreds of other OTC companies lost their "blue-sky" status in California 12/31/97. The state changed their requirements and didn't bother to tell anyone. Worse yet California no longer maintains a list of companies "blue-skyed" to operate in the state! TAVA (and hundreds of other small-cap companies) had to re-submit paperwork to Sacramento and have regained blue sky status. IMO this in no way reflects on TAVA but speaks very loudly about bureaucratic incompetence in "The Golden State". On another note, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter is now a market maker in TAVA. Once we see our NMS upgrade on the newswire, a couple of positive announcements etc. we'll not only be "credible / repectable" and rolling through $20 IMHO. Bill
