I remember him telling me about his family being invested in Maesa. How much his sister was in. God, this guy is a total bullshitter. I would love to see his complete background/rap sheet. He is the type of guy, however, that if he believes it then it is not a lie.

Dan L. So isn't your time up for buying or taking the company over. As far a me talking about Joe Lanza as opposed to worrying about my investment in Vpro/Xecom/AirStar -- I AM NOT AN INVESTOR. I am bystander serving the public good by informing everyone of my experience with Joe Lanza.

Amen, TJS;

Dan L: If I remember correctly, Jayne Lanza had exposed all the different pseudo names related to the Lanzas and you were one of the groupies of the Lanzas. I may be mistaking, but if not, what credibility you bring to your arguments!!!

I keep repeating the fact that I believe, at least for myself, no one is a fan of the management because the stock is not going anywhere and perhaps because of the allegations. However, one thing is certain and that is: Lanza is a Felon (per TJS and Wes provided facts) and none of you airstar bashers have provided a solid proof of your claims against the corporation. Until then, the only logical step is to forcefully (legally) bring an audit of the books and while I am at it, throw the Lanzas in jail, if I can prove all these allegations.

So, everyone, if you got any proof of wrong doings by either the Lanzas or the current management, please fax them to 626-564-3376. This is my computer fax, ie. don't worry about running out of paper (attention the snake!!!).
