Dear Janice, You and the rest of your FBN team have been trashing this company for months. I've been feeling pretty bad standing by seeing my friend Tommy Price get accused of operating with crooks. Doing a "Pump and Dump" thing with veronex. I am probably the only person that can paint you a true picture of Thomas Price the President of Veronex. This is a man of honesty, fortitude, tenacity, intelligence and compassion. Put your money on Tommy. If Tommy tells you he can do something believe me he can. Both Tommy and I come from a small little town called Kaaawa on the island of Oahu in Honolulu, Hawaii. I have known Tommy for a little more than 50 years. He made me my first bicycle from parts that we scrounged from the neighborhood when we were about 7 years old. He made us our first hotrod a 40 ford from part we also scrounged. We had to drive in the back roads as we were too young to get a drivers license, My family go back hundreds of years in Kaaawa so this gave me the opportunity to watch the Price family as they moved into the neighborhood. Mr. Price-Eugene Claude came from Mountain City, Tennesse. Mrs. Helen Price came from Honolulu. After an altercation with his stepfather Mr. Price left home at age fourteen worked at various jobs and eventually ended up in one of the first US Artillery Units stationed at Pearl Harbor. I know these things because in 1990 when he died I gave his eulogy. The first thing the Prices did was lease a lot that was about the size of an acre. They put up a tent and built a large garage while they lived in this large tent. They then moved into the garage while they built the house. The basement was dug out using picks and shovels. Mr. Price with his young sons Roy, Larry and Tommy.It took approximately 7 years to finish the house. The house still stands today. It shines on the top of the hills overlooking the lower lands below. People of our town, used the Prices' house as a place of refuge during the tidal waves generated by distant tsunamis. The Prices raised chicken, turkeys-their family gave turkeys to needy families in the neighborhood during thanksgiving. Mr. & Mrs Price were wonderful people. I know as I have spent countless number of hours talking with them. Mr. Price always told me "Timothy, people make mistakes and when they do they have to admit it. Tell the truth. One thing I can't stand is a damn liar." The Price boys are all highly successful individuals. Roy, military retired, served as Chief of Staff for the Army at Fort Shafter. He is presently second in charge of our state civil defense office. Brother Larry is a Professor of Communications at University of Hawaii and one of the highest paid radio disc jockeys in the state of Hawaii. Tommy talked to me about his M5 program back in the early 90's. Someone wrote that what Mr Price has is a new paradigm- This is the closest description of what I have seen. I had a physicist look at M5 - He told me it was hard to believe that one person wrote this whole thing using one language and using one of the earliest languages written for computers. I write this as Mr. Tom Price is one of my dearest friends and he has never failed me.
