FNTN.COM is currently down again. Will the new site be up soon? Here is to hoping! It is certainly coming soon. <eom>

Guarded optimism will be my theme for the next few days. I need to remember that with all that is happening right now I will not expect too much of FNTN. I will be happy with whatever it does. I know that the good old day traders are about to come along and start playing games with the stock I love. But I don't care because I plan to stick with it no matter what. Just my opinion. Regards, Bill Fortune III

Please add another 4,000 today. Thank you. --------------adding 15000 Harry Please put me on your list!!! I have 15,000 stocks -------------- Hi Harry!!! I've been lurking on SI since about late Oct 97... I've been in FNTN since about that time and have been a regular 'lurker' on SI all the way, even though I'm not a member... I've spoke with Malcolm several times through e-mail before... I firmly believe in what FNTN is doing and think it can be a top notch stock in the near future... A friend of mine emailed our shares to be counted long ago, but neither of us is on the mailing list... -------------adding 10,000 Add me to the list with 10,000 shares -------------adding 3000 We share the same dream, You wroth a message saying that you want to buy a boat. Same for me it's a sail boat (catamaran), but I will have to wait still a long time with my 3000 shares need $20/share. Anyway we are on a good start! :) -------------adding 250,000 MUTUAL FUND GROUP specializing in small caps and sometime lurkers picked up at least a quarter of a million shares today ------------adding 410,000 Private investment group picked up 410,000 today ------------adding 1200 Order for 1200 filled at 0.94 holding 5000 for long > --------------A MESSAGE from an SI member Hey fntners: Did we have a fine day or what? This is a fine time to sit back and bask in the splender of the moment. It is a time you feel thankfull for riding out the peaks and valleys and are finally rewarded for all your DD. I just want to pass on my thoughts as some of you have requested them and answer some questions I received in my mail today. As I have said in other posts, today was not the storm but only the calm. A very nice almost uninterrupted steady rise, like a premier company and not a penny stock. But what have I been saying for two months? How many pennies can survive this long with no news? FNTN has never acted like a penny stock and the management does not sit around all day drumming up empty press releases to put out on the wire! FNTN is for real Now about the selling, many asked if I was tempted to sell, yes we are all tempted to sell on what appears to be a phenominal run up, but unless you think this is going to back way up, you better consider tax consequences and the risk that this issue may catch fire and fly before you sell! I have been in AOL five times in the last year and every time I sold I had to buy back at a higher price. If I would have just held my 1200 shares at 27, 13.50 split adjusted I would have made over 200k on that issue alone! Now the news on FNTN has not even come out yet so if it bounces to 2 or 2.50 before we get the whole story, selling is like playing Russian Roulette with five chambers loaded! IMHO Here are a few responses to the other questions: Is FNTN for real?..........YES Is the web site better than average?......Much better Is the IBD acqusition still alive........Yes Will FNTN make us rich?......No one can say that but the people that held are a lot richer than those that sold! Thats enough for now, see you at $2.50 --------------- It was a lot of work today. But keep sending your messages to Harry at pal@pacbell.net
