Wally, OT I'll let you know after this weekend if I'm willing to trade the "Dead Skins" for the "Iggles". Looks like a wash right now. Tom

Wally, I called FNTN this afternoon about the Barry Stein credibilty posts earlier in the day. I just received Michael Sheppard's response which is as follows: Bruce: RE: Info on SI thread regarding BBS. Mr. Stein spent approximately 14 years on the CBOE floor as a floor broker/market maker. He represented clients who are the largest brokerage firms on Wall Street. For instance: Goldman Sacks Solomon Brothers Morgan Stanley Dean Witter First Boston Lehman Brothers White Weld A.G. Edwards Wortheim & Co. and other Broker/Dealers throughout the country. The information that is shown on the thread is available to the public by contacting the NASD for any persons who have been or are currently members. Regarding the actions of the CBOE against Mr. Stein, all matters were resolved. These actions did not effect any customers or benefit Mr. Stein's account. In speaking with many professionals, actions like this go on continuously regarding members of exchanges. Mr. Stein was readmitted to the floor as a member in good standing in 1987 and continued his career there until 1992. Prior to that he joined the CBOE as a member in 1974. In addition, Mr. Stein's licenses are currently in good standing with the NASD. If the NASD felt that he had committed material violations per their requirements, why would they allow him to have his licenses in good standing? Mr. Stein as founder of FNTN is involved in bringing new business to our company. His contacts in the brokerage community are extensive, which allows him direct access to decision-makers that could be customers of FNTN. Therefore, I suggest that these issues be put to rest and allow FNTN's management to meet its goals. Michael Sheppard
