Hi Ian, Have been watching your comments over the past couple of days and appreciate your opinion...As that is what it is...Perhaps nobody is talking on this thread about BCE Emergis because we are focused on the strengths of VNE and its alliances. A couple of comments. You are right to speculate on VNE, however the strength of these companies VNE aside is very strong..who would argue the investment advise of Citibank? Inex is a formidable organization with equity investment from Compaq (PS also I know the CEO who is very strong/credible individual)Lasso and Valu-net have good technologies. For someone who is so down on this play I am surprised at the amount of time you spend informing us of your opinion. Secondly my broker did inform me earlier of the Emergis play when it was only up $1 on the day. It was my understanding that very little stock was available as Wood Gundy picked most of it up. I would suggest you refer to the Emergis thread for those comments. Thanks..

Ian, the BCE Emergis deal is a great one. Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with Valu-net and The eMerge Alliance. Quite simply, BCE Emergis and the banks have figured out a way for you and I to pay our bills on line without: - companies having to send traditional/expensive paper envelopes and bills; - you and I having to send traditional/expensive envelopes and cheques - you and I having to drive to the bank and waste our time, as well as, the time of a teller + the cost of handling the traditionally expensive paper bill. Not to mention, it is also enviro-friendly. Thus, congrats to BCE Emergis and the banks! Having said that, what does this have to do with the market and revenue goals of The eMerge Alliance? It seems you are implying some kind of direct competition where there is none. Regards, Agora Internet Relations Corp. agoracorp.com
