Great buying opportunity to pick up more at the lows.... 16-16.5 Probably the last chance at these prices. I was glad to add to my long position at .16! Ate at the Rainforest Cafe last night. Anyone familiar? Walk into a big mall, and the first and biggest thing you see is RAINFOREST! And all I could thing about was WOOD, and the great recognition the these nationwide cafes does for the awareness of Rainforest and Rainforest products! As a very long time WOOD holder, I believe we're still only at the very beginning of what WOOD will do. dbl

German Angel ( the creator of the Wood web site) says, after someone on another thread said he could do the Web page in a shorter amount of time, with another canned Web program . ATTENTION!! I am the webmaster for AIE. AIE currently provides consulting and manages the Internet backbone for HIDTA (The Department of Justice), The DEA, ATF, the US Marshals and local law enforcement. Our clients also include the design and maintenance of the Target Travel Club database as well as other high profile companies/organizations. I was quite surprised at the above message especially since it came form an individual who is an "Internet professional". Contrary to the comments that were made, web sites are designed by PEOPLE not PROGRAMS. To say that programs create web sites is just as responsible as stating that your "BUSINESS" was created with Microsoft Word or other word processor where you type your letters. The development of a web site requires the use of 1)Artists 2)Programmers 3)Layout Specialists. An HTML editor (Homesite) neither accelerates nor slows down the development of a site. The MADERA site is being developed with a database backbone and Cold Fusion as the query source. Cold Fusion is an Allaire product, which happens to use the Homesite meta tag stamp. We believe that it is the obligation of any person that holds him/herself out as a professional to conduct due diligence when making comments in their area of expertise. This is obviously even more important when relating to financial matters. If you are interested in obtaining software (NOT PEOPLE) to design your web site, these programs can be found FREE on the internet or simply purchase Microsoft FrontPage (web site in a box). To all others who prefer to put the reputation of their business in PEOPLE - there are professionals to do the job right! Perhaps in the future everyone should place disclaimers at the bottom of our marketing material stating: "The selection of a professional should not solely be based on their selection of "Word Processor". Thank you and please cross post this to other boards. Cordially, German Angel
