Pluvia Responds To The LA Times...

To: The Editor of The LA Times

Re: LA Times Article About Pluvia latimes.com

Tom Mulligan's article (see URL above), about Pluvia & Steve Keyser demonstrates why journalists with Tom's limited skills make no money and give the business of journalism a bad name.

1. Pluvia is not Steve Keyser, as evidenced by Pluvia's e-mail registration.

This quote from the LA Times article is incorrect:

<<<Keyser, as Pluvia, then referred to his new status in a message on the Silicon Investor. At the same time, he disclosed that he had switched from a bear to a bull on Teletek, calling the shares "a very good buy at present prices" of 87.5 cents. The stock today trades sporadically at less than a penny a share.>>>

2. Pluvia at one time called TLTK an undervalued buy (at $.87ish), but several weeks later - after TLTK stock had risen more than 50%, Pluvia publicly sold TLTK stock and advised others to do the same. An associate of Pluvia (Steve Keyser), and Cliffplas were then appointed to the TLTK board to try to pull the company out of the toilet.

On the first day of their appointment to the TLTK advisory committee, Keyser and Cliffplas discovered TLTK was destine to go to zero/get delisted, whereupon Keyser/Cliffplas caused the company to issue a press release informing shareholders that the company had serious problems. After exhausting all possible remedies to help save TLTK, Keyser resigned. Neither Keyser nor Cliffplas were paid anything for their work to try to save TLTK, their work was motivated only by their desire to try to help the TLTK shareholders.

3. Pluvia's associate Steve Keyser did not commit securities fraud in the 14 year old case cited by the LA Times, nor was Mr. Keyser found guilty of committing securities fraud, or fined for any wrong doing in that case.

4. The LA Times reporter Tom Mulligan was given a stiff warning that he and the LA times would be sued if they printed information suggesting Pluvia was involved in securities fraud.

This letter is to inform you that unless you print a retraction to the incorrect and very poorly researched story about Pluvia and Steve Keyser, the LA Times and Tom, (soon to be penny-less), Mulligan will be sued.

Furthermore, upon summary Judgment whereupon Pluvia will likely own the LA Times and Tom Mulligan, Pluvia will donate the LA Times to Larry Flint in the hopes that the quality of journalism at the LA Times can at least be raised to the level of pornography.

Your Truly Yours,

Steve Pluvia
