Wow! talk about being on the ball and getting a job quick!! I find it funny that a company would hire a PR guy that has trouble putting his points into a clear concise manner that people can understand...I mean what got him the job? Bardonics?

Be more than happy to answer that one since the SEC, proper authorities and a news release has been fully diclosed on this issue. Plus they were given this site and MIDL site as a monitoring spot on the internet ... hello!!!

Would developing this "relationship" not take at least the same amount of time required to become employed at a floor sweeper?

I have reseached that stock for 4 months prior to Acron coming in the shell. I have more DD on that stock than any other stock. I have called that company for nearly everyday since September of 1997. I have an equity loss of over $60K ... Now fire away and I am still in it and I was buying into the rise.

And would the word "disclosure" that you two have been throwing around these last 2 days, come into play then?

Come into what ... I talked to the proper authorities about your infamous post and the results I posted. So your point is ... Be careful the sword your weild ... He that liveth by the sword perisheth by the sword.

NOW You want to enter into the MIDL arena be careful. Full disclosure and lots of name associated with that one has been made. It is a fully reporting company with written statements and all have been completely sent to the proper authorities. Your belief is not a fact and you do not have all the information to have an opinion only a view. Now if you want to submit a fact of black and white where you are about to head then I will be happy for you to fax it to the proper authorities.

Now you innuendo is false as usual because you have an intent to come at me because of your post and my analysis of that post of which I wish still exisited. I do not mind at all because the facts are the facts. This is your style and you are reckless and careless as your posts alway show. You state your intent but your transparency is more obvious. You are hurt by day trading and on a witch hunt to find a witch and in your witch hunt you exposed yourself to being a part of it. Just be careful the battle you pick you do not want to involve yourself in something you have no idea what you are involving yourself in.

Now I stepped up as the IR because when it all came down I offered my services free ... I have found out a lot doing research and I am in close touch with the company and the proper authorities. Not often does a man that believes in his convictions actually steps up to the plate. Proof is in every person's actions. Am I crazy for putting myself in front of a train probably but I do not see you doing any acts just talking. I talk the talk and walk the walk.

I will either be part of a scenario or part of the truth. You decide because I personally do not care what you think. You cannot hurt me anymore than what has already happened to me with MIDL which by the way because of my pestering DD I discovered the fraud and did I come on here whining .. no I did something about it. However I am not going to defame anyone but that which was done to the shareholders which is being legally handled.

Pick your wars carefully.

GB

PS ... I am unemployed, not a paid promoter or IR, noe have I been compenstated in anyway for I am just a private and concerned investor. If you have facts other than that please fax the evidence to the SEC and other proper authorities or better yet post it to the internet will be fine also.

Shoot,
I will give it my best shot...(no pun intended)

First of all, while I am not saying that it didn't happen that way for you, I have never had the problem of it taking several weeks to convince someone to hire me. (Granted, twenty years ago my "career" consisted of wrapping tacos after school) While in some sectors there is red tape that would make the hiring process take a little longer, in most industries, qualified people can get hired rather quickly.

Since I was not involved, I cannot really comment on the details of Gary's IR role. However, I think it is only fair to point out that to the best of my knowledge, he is NOT, and NEVER HAS BEEN, an employee of the company. However, since it was Gary who actually discovered the fraud, and initially notified Pierce of it, Pierce was probably pretty comfortable with Gary's knowledge of the stock structure, etc. If you were to own a tennis shop, and needed some quick help because your staff walked out (which is basically what happened to Pierce), and then Andre Aggassi walked in and agreed to help out for free...well, it is not hard to figure out what one would do.

I am not sure of what it is exactly that you are asking. Are you asking whether Gary had an obligation to tell all of us that he had been in regular contact with the company? Well, I don't think there was ever any secret made of that...Did he have an obligation to tell us of his IR role? again, I think he did. Did he have an obligation to tell this thread of his suspicions regarding the former CEO? Well, as soon as he learned of it, he exposed it to the company, who immediately took action and made a news release, so I would think that obligation had been met. I think to do otherwise would be equal to one of the main things he is opposing here...slamming the character of someone without (at THAT time) having cold hard facts in hand, merely suspicions.

Seems like whatever you do and wherever you go, tit-for-tat will always be there. It's a cheap game, but like I said, it beats hanging out in some bar.

Just my opinion,
Binder
