Wallstreeter would know better than I. He helped and advised with PR news and other things. I must say he has been very informative and seems to spread the word about ETPI. I got no problem with him he's not a hypster Im just a little sad to see whats going on with ETPI. This used to be a great thread and everyone seemed pumped and ready to make money. I bought back in because the water park is opening soon and I was told some big things were happening within a few weeks. Figured I had nothing to lose at these prices. Hey wallstreeter, your JNNE is holding up pretty good. Hope you see $2.00 this week.

I guess that Gator helped them with the press releases and advised them on a few issues. Im glad i never took any free shares . I feel better being on this side of the fence even though my average is 80 cents. Hey Pennyslayer i held onto my jnne. this week is the news for the new board members . Last week they hired the former vice president of franchises for days inn. This week comes the announcment for the new board members who are supposed to be experts in the internet and e-commerce field. If they are big guys then we could see 2 dollars. Thanks for the positive words Pennyslayer. Come on etpi lets get pumped again.Still here with my 24 thousand + sharwes at 80 cents :(

A.E., Yes, ETPI "gave" me some shares. Unsolicited. It was Doug Butcher's way of saying thanks for many hours that I donated of my time to help the company with internet research while they were developing their Performance S&L site and VisionQuest site. I also brought a couple of acquisition/merger candidates to their attention (although they didn't really pan out), and I also helped show them how to word and structure press releases (with related company links) to broaden readership. I didn't expect to receive shares, I was just an active shareholder trying to improve my investment. Doug's gift is an indication of how he feels about his shareholders, especially the supportive ones. I've been staying off the boards lately because I haven't really been following ETPI too closely lately. I wasn't expecting anything major to happen until the 2nd qtr financials (due May 15), when I think we'll get our first indication of how the company is doing with their "focus and finish" initiative. I wasn't aware that Pete had left the company until I read it here. Sorry to see him go, he was a pretty good guy. But, Doug is focusing on the bottom line and part of that I'm sure is streamlining internal operations. A lot of 144 stock was due to hit the market this year with all the acquisitions that were made last year. When we see these waves of selling, I'm assuming it's someone unloading some of their stock whose restriction period has freed up. Not much can be done other than to weather the storm, wait until it seems to have subsided, then buy on the dip and profit on the bounceback. This stock has always been a buy when it drops down to the $0.18 to $0.25 range. Gator Disclaimer: I have received 10,000 restricted shares of ETPI for various consulting services provided to the company.
