Vantage: And too many companies with lousy financials go soaring. Case-in-point: Just about every Internet stock. A new company with no sellable product has no profit. Simple! If the burn rate is small or modest and the wheels are still turning that company still has a good chance of getting where they intend to go. FNTN is an INTRAnet stock that shows promise of showing operational profit within months. They cannot be lumped with the Yahoos of the World because they are selling to narrow vertical markets, not the entire Universe. However, they have the same basic advantage of eliminating the client regionalism that had always limited the potential of most corporations.. until the Internet came along. On the subject of BBs (not directed to you, Vantage): There is so much whining and indignance from people on these threads about BBs you'd think their local bank decided to deprive them of their 2% Savings Account interest. This is HIGH RISK INVESTING. There are NO GUARANTEES! None of us, including Michael Sheppard will promise you a 500% profit on a 2 year investment. So we can talk about changing SEC rules and we can talk about respect and we can all go jump in a lake. This is what we've got - this IS the risk. Change the World in your spare time. Be aware, however, that the tighter restrictions become to eliminate the losers, the fewer potential winners, too. Like it or not, they both need the same rules for survival. Wally

I have asked Maura related questions a while ago. Databases are being updated continuously, so FNTN shows up as a search result from search engines. There were no plans to advertise FNTN on YAHOO and other sites since this is expensive. Michael and Maura go to shows to make the company visible to clients and they send publications via mails as well. Around 80% of those customers request more info as per Michael. I also asked if SIEMENS VP (on board of directors) can use his contacts and the answer was "Yes!". Radim
