Bill, thank you. As a kid I remember watching All-Star Wrestling, with Haystacks Calhoon, The Krusher, The Viking, Moose Evans, Bobo Brazil, and all the rest of them. Remember the villans who would do anything to win. Gouge an eye, slam someone to the mat by their hair, choke them on the rope; nothing was too low. However, when the good guys got the advantage, they would fall to their knees as beg for mercy, or would protest to the referee that they had been fouled, or fake an injury. However, if they were given any sanction, they simply would return to their evil ways. I wonder why that would come to mind? Hmmmmm. I will not forget that these people are trying to ruin a company. A company that some very fine people are trying to get off the ground. A company that has wives and husbands and kids and mortgages. A company that is trying to do something new. A company that is good enough to get the nod from Siemans, Worldcom, and Comstock S & P. A company that is good enough for me to put my money into. Then along comes someone who tries to sink the whole thing. That spends his day doing what he can from a competitors employment, on his employers equipment, on his employers time, on his employers money, and the only thought is to sink a small insignificant little startup BB company, AND HE DOESN'T EVEN OWN A SHARE!! Please tell my why someone would do such a thing? What on earth would possess someone to try to destroy this company and the peoples lives that work there? Why? The only answer I can come up with is that it is for the betterment of his own company and his company has full knowledge of it, or the person is so lonely that this is the only way they have of getting some type of attention in the black void of their life. Well, I will be calling the Senior Vice President of HR on Monday to answer my question of their company policy. We all know what the answer is going to be, it doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure that out. However, I will do my DD so that I am satisfied, and then I will return to the thread to share what I have found. Of course, this will only be talking to someone of the telephone, and what type of DD is that, I mean, Michael Frank, Sr. VP of HR, could be lying through his teeth. Maybe I should request a copy of the employee handbook and the policy and procedure manual, so I can read it for myself. But wait, what if they have a special manual written up for just such a request to throw us off the track. What to do, what to do!!!!! Maybe I'll just call the dude and see what he says. To come back to the earth plane for a minute, one of the things that impresses me the most is the continuing support by Siemens. If you look at the relationship between FNTN and Siemens over the last few years, you will see it escalating with every step they take. For me that is a very big clue as to where I see FNTN going. While you are a growing company, there is nothing like having a big brother pave the way for you. All is my opinion. No one should buy a single share of this company, or any other company that I speak of without doing their own investigation. Tomato Man
