Although I agree that there have been some major dissappointments, I think the most important thing now, is to look to the future, and hope Tom and crew have learned from the mistakes, and they they will capitalize on their 2nd chance. I like what Tom has done since the final order and I hope he will keep us informed in TMMI's progress. **********Thursday June 18, 7:08 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release TMM Announces Final Order CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 18, 1998--Total Multimedia Inc.(TMM)(OTC BB:TMMI - news) Thursday announced that it has received a final order closing the company's successful Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings.

Wednesday June 10, 3:34 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release TMM Announces Stock Swap with ECC CAMARILLO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 1998--TMM Inc. Wednesday announced that it has entered into a memorandum of understanding to acquire Emission Controls Corp. (ECC), a Nevada corporation, with offices in Colorado. ECC is the developer and patent holder for the Natural Resources Fuel Reformer (NRFR) system, which delivers hydrocarbon-based fuels to the internal combustion engine with its proprietary technology as to exhaust near-zero toxic emissions and pollutants. ECC has developed a system which breaks down the structure of hydrocarbon fuels and produces a type of fuel that the engine can burn cleanly and more efficiently. The product is designed as a retrofit for autos that are non-compliant with the EPA emission standards and as a replacement for virtually all emissions control systems, including catalytic converters, on new cars. TMM will begin marketing the NRFR systems for delivery in spring of 1999. The acquisition will be in the form of a stock-for-stock exchange. TMM will provide its technology and multimedia background to build on-line video training and instruction capabilities that will guide the repair and retrofit process for the NRFR system worldwide. ECC President Syd Cooke stated from the company offices in Colorado: ''We are excited about this association with TMM. Their technology background will bring to the venture the ability to train and provide at-work assistance to mechanics worldwide. One of the challenges of our effort is to be able to provide instant instruction for retrofit customers. With TMM's video technology and Internet expertise they are a perfect fit for our marketing effort.'' During the transition period both companies will work out of soon-to-be-announced office space located at the Lowry Air Force Base Development Park in Denver. TMM Chief Technology Officer, Tom Simpson, stated: ''The facility available to us at the Lowry Development facilities are some of the best in the nation. They have full multimedia production capabilities, state-of-the-art conferencing facilities and distance-learning classrooms. ''It provides us access to an infrastructure developed by the University of Colorado, US West, Lucent Technologies and Echostar Satellite. The ECC project will be a model of distance learning and worldwide video database access capabilities. I am looking forward to working on this project.'' Total MultiMedia is a leader in softvideo and multimedia products and is traded publicly on NASD under the symbol TMMI. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Contact: TMM Inc., Camarillo Tom Simpson, 805/444-1494 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ More Quotes and News:TMM Inc (OTC BB:TMMI - news)Related News Categories: computers, environmental, internet, oil/energy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Help ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Copyright c 1998 Business Wire.

I'm with you, Johnny. Ya gotta wonder where we'd be if Pap never took legal steps to stop us from going forward with the MCI deal and ISI, and dumped the Altamira guys. I don't care how much olsen was paying himself. Carol

To make your day better maybe I can try another angle. Judging from the TMM press release April last year there must have been a pending contractual arrangement involving the other parties, but when it was not realized the shareholder meeting turned into a shareholder get-together. A company being in ch. 11 with the possibility of being liquidated, having had reports of being unable to pay office rent and telephone bills, and lacking in both revenue and personnel may have had a lot to do with it. Despite TMM's legal claims, Altamira stepped in and took its place. For all I know it may have been thievery, part thievery, or just arranged that way for the MCI-Iterated team to move ahead without encumbrance. Tom wouldn't have come into the picture unless he saw better potential for his/other investment than with just AMCI. Since then, the preferred lender(s) have given their go-ahead, and the company has gotten out of ch. 11 and about to take over a fully-equipped, up-to-date multimedia center at a credible institution which then allows them to move forward with projects in both CA and CO. Regaining credibility TMM would be able to become part of some aspect or other of the MCI-Iterated team. Note that Tom has said talks are continuing. For all I know, instead of saber rattling, the talks might be friendly and promising. If Tom makes a forecast now, it may be premature just like the press release April last year. Maybe until things materialize that's the situation with a shareholder meeting as well. Once the ducks all get lined up in a row we can have that meeting. Possibly things may not be so bad, but it's about time for us to be finding out.
