Aleta, I share in the sensitivity of your remarks in response to Jon. Indeed, Jon, Brady did come up with an excellent resource. Soon as I can dig up 50 extra clams, I'm gonna subscribe to it. Knowx could well be helpful in future investments. Meanwhile, Zulu? What can I say? Just gotta wait it out. If you've got the right idea, the right technology and the timing is cool, so stands a chance for success. You see, based on my observations of business from the sidelines, the way this game works, when it comes to making money, the past shouldn't matter. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there an Abscam congressman whose name is at the top of one the leading brokerage firms? Brady sure has listed a lot of Hayton scrapes. But how many other 50-year-old successful businessmen have "defendants" MORE THAN four times? Sure it'd be nice to rest one's hopes on Mr. Clean. But would that really be business? Also worth consideration, is if you're an idealist in promoting new ideas--for example, the alternative energy concepts Hayton was previously involved with--are you always going to have a lot to work with in order to succeed? Is it common to scrape and scrap in order to make something out of nothing? To the another extreme, if you we had a business running under my control, given my instincts, we probably would have been bankrupt a long time ago. I'd have given everybody what they wanted and everybody too good of a deal! I think in the ultimate consideration, if you're it the right place at the right time with the right thing, the right money will eventually discover this. Thus, I'm holding out hope and remain long with my ZuluGroup.com prospects. In the meanwhile, somebody please explain the analysis of Hornblower and Weeks as well as the acknowledging comments of Lance Estes in the Wired aritcle? Yes, plese do give me a valid explanation here.

Aleta, presumably Wired had access to a similar search service. We now know that they weren't exaggerating the truth about Hayton. It's too bad we didn't know about this web site back when Wired published the articles. It might have saved some people here some considerable losses. :( Given this information, anybody investing in the company would have known just what they were stepping into.

Mending the Hole in my Pocket......... My biggest complaint with ZULU/NETZ is that from the beginning of 1998 they led investors to believe that the big day was just around the corner. Always within reach and the stock could start to move any day. Investors held and watched the price drop for the most part because of the above insinuations. We (most of us) allowed our money to languish in a pool of quicksand when it could have at least provided us with a few good adrenaline rushes elsewhere. We pushed aside blatant statements made in the press concerning the historical make-up that was/is running the company. We rationalized the reasons why defamation and libel lawsuits weren't filed. These suits will never be filed because one can't fight the truth. It would have been better if the partys addressed by the press had just admitted to their past and ended the accusations when they started. Some of us (myself for a while) fell in love with this stock called ZULU. Thus, being in love, one can't feel the heat or see the flames that are building around him/her. One can only feel the euphoria that is resulting in a bad case of terminal myopia. Of course we had the motherly types that told us that our love interest was no good, a whore. Did we listen? Some did, most didn't. But just as in a divorce, ones separates oneself from the same person that one was so adamantly in love with at the wedding. I said in the beginning that I have always been able to admit to my wrongs and be a man about it, so I will. Remember though, just because someone was right in the beginning doesn't necessarily mean they have been promoted to a higher position in my book. The ways an methods of some are detestable. Here goes: 1) Sirk was right when he said there were better places to put ones money until this stock showed some evidence of a solid foundation. 2) Joe has probably played this thing better and has the best philosophy on ZULU than anyone. Ready to jump in at a moments notice but out at the first sign of trouble. 3) Jon (yes guys I must), although he wouldn't back up most of his statements and just left the reader wondering, was right to a point. Why he was/is here we will probably never know. It's a shame Jon that you seem to carry such a hate for this stock or someone involved with this stock that you would invest so many hours posting here. You spent so much time trashing the stock that you became unbelievable. Unbelievable because the hate was so obvious. There are others and when I think of them or they are brought to my attention I will acknowledge them also. On the other hand there are those that will not admit the obvious and therefore add fuel to the ongoing romance of some. You are not unlike one who would refuse to tell your best friend that his/her spouse is sleeping around. Sleeping with you too? I do not know that for a fact but the further this thing goes......... What is my current beliefs concerning ZULU? I think this company has a lot of potential that is being wasted by top level management in an effort to ciphon every last penny possible out of her before going public (NASDAQ). There is also the possibility, no make that probability, that the price is being manipulated and held down in an effort to avoid any ongoing law suits that may be more well founded than any of us care to believe. Right now I do not see any logical reason to be in this stock. It may go to a dollar on Monday but it would be due to manipulation or some other fluke created by management. We have seen promise after promise go unfulfilled. The only time the promises tend to be fulfilled is when it is to the benefit of the hierarchy within. In other words, even if good things are happening it won't be announced at an appropriate time. There is no way to intelligently make a decision about the future simply because we don't know anything. Promises yes. But they have a history of those. The smart thing for me to do is to stay on the sidelines and watch. As Joe says, "The money is ready and waiting." The good thing about that statement is that it is my money and I can control where it goes. As long as it is idle, it is not dropping in value. Whew! bb
