I've been silent on this thread for one week but reading every day the posts on the main thread, I have to express myself again.

PNLK is a great company .
Every one should be grateful to you for posting PNLK.
Glenn has been a tremendous source of comfort and encouragement for all investors.
But...
Some "self appointed" leaders in this thread, are rude, impolite, immature, and even though they wish to act as guardian of the company's ,shareholders and investors interests, will end up harming the stock and the future of the company by creating animousity amongst SI members who are totally free to express their feelings and doubts about any company.

They make interpretations of certain posts, call themselves "radars bastard rats" etc... and have no respect for other members.

Freedom of speech can only help our society. The internet is not a dictatorial entity, and whoever they are, they are not entitled to judge their neighbor's financial interests for their personal satisfaction and ego.

If the stock has such days as today, they are greatly responsible by creating doubts as to the legitimacy of PNLK.

Had I been younger and had less experience in life, I certainly would had banged my shares ( and believe me I have a BIG position) last week after the lack of respect of certain... and I would have been anti-PNLK.

I rely on your influence to interfere in the main thread and to relay my post as I do not wish to dialogue with them.

I post on other threads which are very PROFESSIONAL and I will not post on PNLK again even though I read the posts every day and I am a big shareholder.

regards,

Malko

DOW JONES RELEASE...

DOW JONES RELEASE...

Regarding the release from Dow Jones I need to clarify what took place. Needless to say I was as surprised to hear this news as you.
First of all, we had been negotiating with Dow Jones for almost a month and we had reached an agreement for ProNetLink to participate with Dow Jones in their news retrieval program. Implementation had begun with their support at Proxicom so that information would be included for the launch next week. Late Friday, after I had been given permission by the Account Executive at Dow Jones to release the news, the Dow Jones legal department contacted me to say that the release was incorrect due to two facts. One, that the actual contract had not been signed (we were waiting for that to arrive) and two, that the release was misleading in the sense that we were not offering the information for "free" but that is was part of the membership fee for ProNetLink. They did not want the rest of the industry to think that they had given us the service for free.
I apologize for any confusion that this "legal" bump in the night has caused and we will be on top of it first thing Monday morning. I assure you that it was not my intention to mislead anyone.
