>>>I know this is an unconventional approach, but have you tried their product and done so in a head-to-head comparison with stevia?<<<

You know what, Hogger? I like sugar! It's as simple as that. I don't know what the big deal is about all this other stuff. When I look in the grocery store.....I see hundreds of pounds of sugar for sale against ounces of this other stuff. Never heard of stevia before this thread. So tell me about the market out there. I'm listening.

Hogger, you posted several times about the bashers claiming altruism as their motive. Are you sure they've really claimed this??

I have recently posted on a heavily hyped BB that lost 90% of its value since I started posting and I was asked many times why I was posting if I didn't own the stock and told that I had no life, that I was a 'paid basher' and other such rot. Funny thing is that no-one has had the courtesy to acknowledge that there were legitimate reasons for skepticism now that the stock has crashed.

Anyway, the reasons I have given (and the reasons I've usually heard from the bashers) include:

anger at scams in general
anger at manipulative hype
'short envy' (wishing we could short these dogs)
genuine curiosity
personal ego
and, a degree of altruism

None of the skeptics are here just to make the world a better place and I don't recall any of them claiming so. The real question relates to AZNT: is the company worth its current price or are the numerous red flags indicative of its future prospects. Time will tell but from what I've read so far I'm in the skeptics camp
