nhhick, I don't think we were duped, but I understand why a lot of AWLT shareholders feel duped. So much hype and so much disappointment up to now and no positive reinforcement...makes for the worst environment for us. AWLT times are the toughest they have ever been for us shareholders and the declining price reflects the disenchantment. I bolster myself by believing that these kinds of situations are often the best buying times. And that a company that has generated real revenue, and maybe even real profit, without debt, and with rapid revenue growth potential isn't worth One Times revenue, then...well, I'll be proven wrong. One Times revenue is about .18 without Danielle, and .50+ with Danielle. I spoke with Jon Swan yesterday and though he couldn't say the deal was finalized, he did say they were still trying to work out the details. I think that Frank should use a little friendliness with Jon, send him a bottle of wine, reach out with courtesy and welcome Jon on board and close the deal. I'm not feeling bad about Araldica because I still have a vision of things working and the company continuing to grow.

As for Matthew, people on this thread who disrespect him don't realize how fortunate we were to have had someone like him participating. I don't blame him for not posting any longer, he hasn't been appreciated and...he can't get "no respect" as Henny Youngman says.

What ever happened to Matthew?

Unfortunately for him he volunteered to take duties of investor relations by posting on this board. He learned first-hand what it is like to do with shareholders. And since AWLT has been so poor recently at keeping promises and providing solid information he has taken the abuse. Matthew would get very agitated when we continued to ask him for information, but he must understand that we are investing (gambling) in a company that is providing little-to-no information regarding the state of the company and its financial position. All we as the sharehlder group want is reasons from the company why we should invest with them.

AWLT, if they truly are on the up-and-up, need to learn that the value the shareholders give the company is truly a measure of the companies future potential (as well as the net-worth of its inside owners). AWLT does not appear to value its shareholders, hence the decline in share value.

To sum up the decline in stock value, I would attribute it to the inability of AWLT management to provide timely and in depth information. If everything the company hints at is true, they should provide some hard numbers and everybody would be happier because this stock would REALLY take off. I truly hope this audit gets published in the next week. By then, without the audit and any meaningfull words from the company, I fear this stock will drop hard and fast.

Well, I have a lot more to say, but I will wait to take the bashing this post creates.

Regards to all,
