Dear John, What planet are you from.I have had it with your nonsense.you have no/no idea what Tava is all about,sir,nor what the impact of Y2K will be on us all and even on S.I. Hopefully,your computer is not compliant because you will eventually have to show compliancy to post on S.I. Which is good for us then we won't have to listen to anymore of your foolishness. Now, you shorts think your so smart,like as if you had something to do with the drop in price,of course you didn't the short position is not even two days normal volume.Obviously,a large position is being liquidated which will make Tava's upward movement even easier. Furthermore,if you and the rest of these short idiots want to perform a public service,since you are all know it alls,then get in touch with all the CEO's of all the Fortune 500 companies who have signed millions of dollars in contracts with Tava and tell them how wrong they are to have put their faith and companies future in Tava's hands. Since,you are good at writing fiction you should start telling the world that Y2K is a hoax!! And if people just listened to WexLIAR and his alter ego C>R> the problem will simply just go away.Anyway you shorts will be getting your shorts handed to you,very shortly. Good Luck....You'll need it....... Regards, Dave

The only thing I think someone knows is that as a new member stock of the Russell 2000/3000 and, yes, I agree way overvalued when it came on board it had to be put in it's place. Right at the bottom on the virge of marginability. TAVA will have to put up or shut up from here on out and gain the respect of the funds that are to support the stock. When I say a big seller, I will admit, I am speculating, but from watching the bid size swell like it has over the last few weeks and the general size of the blocks going through it has the indications of of one primary seller with many mixed in with. My first assumption was the 4.8mil warrants/common conversion, then Karl brought up the fund that may be liquidating for possible tax reasons. These two items combined with the shorts and their campaign could explain. Arbitrage could be another. I'm sorry if I stated it as more fact and my original post probably contained more emotion then anything. "TAVA is betting the future on a new and unproven area of consulting expertise." That's a hard one to swallow. "TAVA insiders have sold lots of stock." Define LOTS ....some has already been addressed and and I can believe the reasoning behind it. "TAVA is leveraged to the hilt in a deal with a company who has been criminally indicted." That loan bridged TAVA from then to now. Something that is very difficult to do for small BB companies. Do Sirrom's problems effect TAVA unless the loan gets called by the courts? Could TAVA re-finance with another easily enough without having to deal with a loan shark and put up that kind of collateral? Cash flow will probably be the key to that one. I think most would agree that the chances of TAVA defaulting on this loan are highly unlikely. "TAVA issues "press releases" whenever anybody at TAVA farts. TAVA is very good at "namedropping". The names of fortune 500 companies are always popping up in press releases. These press releases imply the potential for large dollar amounts of business but exclude concrete information that would allow thoughtful due diligence about the company's real prospects." Please, what else do you want from them? Namedropping? How else are we to know who their clients are? What are you implying here? "TAVA stock has conformed to the classic pattern of distributin and decline common to "pump and dumps". Where was the pump? Other then a few investors in an overly exuberant marketplace sharing their thoughts about the possibilities of TAVA's future and the Yr2k sector in general. TAVA moving in tandem with the rest of the market and now declining, partially along with the rest of the market to a more realistic and fair valuation. Of course some will come back and say still overvalued but that depends on what the market is willing to give TAVA as valuation. It may not be fair today but based on the future prospects...I don't see TAVA as being that overvalued here. "TAVA stock has no institutional support, even at these low levels." I'll bet the closer it gets to 5 it will rear it's head. And how do you know that there hasn't been some buying by instutions already, still doing their DD and ready to initiate coverage. We don't know, but my guess is it will come. Tired,,,got any aspirin?
