I believe that we are overlooking why there is a negative spewing against TVL. It is not necessarily because there are shorters. You might be surprized to find out that some of these people on this thread had another agenda. That other agenda is representative of the Americans who are against the V-chip period. They are part and parcel of the media Networks and libertarian groups. Do not be fooled by them running down this stock as if it was useless, no good, foolish, bankrupt, etc. etc. They may very well be the same ones that infiltrated the forums when the US Gov't representatives and TVL and Collins travelled presenting the V-chip in community after community in the US last year. That is the only way I can explain some of this posting. I have also been informed from reliable sources that the media DID NOT WANT TO CO-OPERATE because they were loosing income. Violence, death, murder, character assassination etc etc are all money makers. When it is "controlled" then there are those who will loose advertising revenues and big money. So why not infiltrate this thread and other threads? Why not bad mouth good companies? Why not bad mouth good technology? Why not call it a scam? I have posted this message twice before. Never once was it "touched" because if it was touched, then the people would identify themselves. We are looking at a great technology here. The information from last weeks news releases in my mind are very very positive for us investors in TVL. Enjoy the ride. Finally I would like to add, that the negative posts have said that manufactures are using a V-Chip but it is not TVL's. I have yet to read on any thread any concrete proof of their arguments. They have made statements, but they have not provided links nor e-mail nor names and telephone numbers of those who would confirm there so called "observations." They are a farce! Their arguments are puny and weak when truly considered. I have been in TVL for over two years and have accumulated this share. I believe in their philosophy, their approach. I understand that people DO NOT TURN TV's off. I understand that people watch without evaluating programming. At least the v-chip gives some control because most parents today are out of control!

With regard to your link as to CIBC, THEY SHORTED ALL THAT STOCK BECAUSE THAT DEAL WAS TERRIBLE AND COVERED WITH THEIR WARRANTS. You think they still own any stock? Let's see a closed deal. If they are holding anything back like you guys claim, that is illegal. Or is that allowed in Canada?
