Hey lws, I care!! Einsteins point of view is as pertinent as anything Visnic has posted. At least he is honest, not cloaked in intellectual innuendo. Visnic has raised pertinent points in regards to 10-k information. But his style is to fan the flames of paranoia upon indecisive investors. Every body knows the marketplace is commanded by emotional perception. Visnic is an expert at inflaming mundane issues. He seems to enjoy defending what I consider inflammatory banter. People have asked important questions of Visnic in regards to his stake in Valence. He has declined a response. One can only question his motives in regards to the timing of his involvement on the internet threads. He declined your challenge which you apologized for. My opinion of Visnic is that he very well could be a paid hitman, maybe from a competing company, maybe from someone beyond my scope of suspicion. Or, he is just an egotistical attorney who enjoys the banter on the internet threads. Visnic forgot to include hysteria or playing on emotion as one of the kinds of posts he includes in his portfolio. My conclusion is, he is an ALARMIST, nothing more. I know by posting this letter a long winded verbose response is coming in the vernacular of our learned friends smoking rooms. The response will be much more clever and astute than any of us emotionally attached investors could muster. He will discount instinct, intuition, faith, and belief as weak traits in the investment world (somewhat true). He will stress the cold hard facts and disregard and diminish enthusiastic projection. It is his only style, stuck in the aggressive piranha like attacking frenzy of his lawyerly world. Visnic, probably through my acknowledgement or because we are close to the conference call will continue to terrorize this thread through Tuesday night and disappear for awhile thereafter. Good Luck to all you Valence longs. Something Visnic would not consider!

Hello lws, How are you? If you have a large position in VLNC, you did not take it due to Visnic. You took it knowing that it is a speculative venture. Either you make a fortune,and live to tell your grandkids or you loose it all. Now comes along this CLOWN called visnic . All he is doing is creating doubts in the minds of people. He has not said a thing that we all do not already know. There is this Moron called Mike Burke and he has a band of loyal brain dead lap dogs,who has his thread on SI and the thread is called "Ask M.Burke". Now this dude made a very eloquent and appealing case that DELL was a commodity company,and that the asians would make cheap "Boxes",and put DELL CPQ and GATE out of business. This was 2 yrs ago. The rest is history. Him and his lackies are sitting with their proverbial D--- in their hands while the "Box Makers " have made over 30 and 40 times for their investors. Any body holding VLNC,a large position at that, must know that it is a speculative stock and could go to ZERO. Now, if you are looking for wisdom from visnic you are in trouble.That means you can not make up your mind what you want to do. Must have a game plan. Must know why you bought a stock.Can't change the game plan half way through the race. Can't bet on a horse and then listen to the opinion of every guy offering it. Best way to go broke. Good luck and may god bless you and guide you in your decision making. Robert
