Hank - Some pertinent information, from the most recent SEC filing: : Notice is hereby given that the Annual Meeting of the Shareholders (the "Meeting") of Paracelsian, Inc. (the "Corporation") will be held at 1:00 p.m., local time, on Wednesday, May 13, 1998, at the New York Service Center for Chinese Study Fellows, Inc., 88 9th Avenue, New York, New York, or at any adjournment thereof, for the following purposes: 1. To elect eight directors, with three to be elected to serve a one year term until the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 1999, three to be elected to serve a two year term until the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2000, and two to be elected to serve a three year term until the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in the year 2001, or until their successors have been elected and qualified. 2. To approve an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation increasing the authorized number of shares of common stock from 20,000,000 to 35,000,000. 3. To transact such other businesses as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment or adjournments thereof. Only shareholders of record of the common stock of the Corporation at the close of business on April 3, 1998 are entitled to notice of, and to vote, at the meeting and any adjournment or adjournments thereof. The Corporation's stock transfer books will not be closed. At least ten days prior to the Meeting, a complete list of the shareholders entitled to vote will be available for inspection by any shareholder, for any purpose germane to the Meeting, during ordinary business hours, at the Office of the Corporation listed above. If you do not expect to be present, please fill in, date and sign the enclosed Proxy, which is solicited by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, and mail it promptly in the enclosed envelope. In the event you decide to attend the Meeting in person, you may, if you desire, revoke the Proxy and vote your shares in person. Since it is no longer possible to ba a shareholder of record as of April 3, 1998, you are not "entitled" to be invited, or to vote. But that is NOT so say, however, that you would not be most welcome! I plan to be there; it would be great to see you again. For you, New York City is much more convenient than Ithaca, isn't it? And more convenient for Harold. But considerably less convenient for me, and vastly less convenient for Robin! I think it can only help the new Directors and Managers to know that they have active and interested stockholders. Perhaps the Thread - like the Company - will rise from the ashes as a magnificent Phoenix. If only we could be given something of substance to discuss . . .. Jonathan

Hank, Glad to hear things are going well and thanks for your welcome. Sorry you missed the shareholder of record date for voting by only 1 trading day but like Jonathan I feel certain you would be welcome (otherwise we'll sneak you in the back door). J Maybe 1999 will bring us an Ithaca meeting where we can have that dinner as envisioned. Going to NYC for anything is not one of my favorite things. I think I would rather travel 3 times longer to Ithaca. Holding the meeting at the "Chinese Study Fellows" publicly reinforces the respect Colin Campbell is held in by the Chinese. Have penciled in attending the annual meeting and hope you can also. The voting can always be handled by mail but the opportunity to meet our new CEO, directors and Colin Campbell is worth the trip. These are the people we trust our money to and when possible I like to meet them personally. Hank, you said you have never meet Colin Campbell and I would like to hear your reaction after you've had the opportunity. I can tell you that after all that has happened if it weren't for Colin Campbell I probably would not be an investor in PRLN. My impression is that he is a man of integrity, ethics and honesty. I'm betting on his ability to succeed. My own intuition tells me that because Colin is so respected is the reason we have the elite talent on the board. You ask, "will this be our finest hour?" and answer by saying "only time will tell". I would add that in my recollection we have never had a better chance. If it doesn't fly this time I think we are doomed. Hank, almost forgot. Take a look at your post #3451, aren't you about 8 plus months early? J Seriously, it's good too see you're coming back, after all, misery loves company. HAGD, Harold
