Anxiety.... Why? This product will develop. It will not be a over night change in the way we see life. Aliens are not landing. July 30th will come and go. Still, Portico is available. A partial listing of authorized Bay Area Portico resellers: FreedomCall 510-444-4200 Golden State Communications 877-979-9090 GTA9 877-949-0999 TRI Wireless 415-716-6500 I called Freedom Call. They are in Oakland. The guy I spoke to put me on the waiting list for sign up. He suggested prices, but it was not final. He said they have Portico on their web site now and they get an average of 10 calls a day for subscription info. He thought this was amazing since there has been no advertising. I think it would be an interesting product to sell. I can imagine going to a Chevron and getting a 500 person account. The corporate angle will be a good sell. It would be interesting to know what the resellar gets out of a contract. You know in the end, one has to remain realistic. A normal investment goes up 20 to 30% a year. A speculative investment like this might go up 100 to 200%. Already this year, GMGC has topped these figures. Time will tell, but it can't go up everyday. Regards, Mark
