Yes, printmail01, I believe this stuff as much as any other person posting here. BUT, the rest of us here don't know the future products of SEVU as Rich does.
Oh this is just silly, there are so many false posts on message boards, geesh.
If there wasn't controversy, what would we talk about.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
For what it is worth!!!!
Other people have had "drinks" with some key directors in the past year or so. But, they do not paint the same picture as Ken.
I agree that SEVU has HAD major problems, but they also HAVE a major success waiting to explode. Quite honestly, I have been infuriated at the lack of pertinent information about the SecureView delays, which I believe there is no excuse for. I also bought into the HYPE from Rich's PR's, which burned us all.
BUT, the potential still exists for SEVU. The timetable has obviously shifted, but we WILL see the results of the HYPE in 2001. This stock is a goldmine right now waiting to be found. At these prices, I continued to buy more shares.
As you can see, I am on both sides of this fence, but most of the time I do not need to reinterate the negative. printmail01 should know that I have supported him in a number of questions to SEVU, but we have gotten no answer.
One last thing, I am not afraid to say my name here, because I have nothing to hide.
JMHO, Adam Jordan (TAfirehawk)
Yes, I have SPAM'd myself.
Is this now a SA/Spammers Anonymous meeting?? LOL
But, SH, you usually start with OT for those posts.
And this is the third of fourth time now for that same post.
Oh well, this is it for my part of the SA meeting.
ROFL

paulmk, interesting, do you work for the SEC? How do you know that the restatement of earnings is under investigation? Just curious where your information comes from, or if it is just a hunch?
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Great news, hope others get contacted from their broker.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I beg to differ about West Marine, Ken.
Please look at this link...
http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/commerce/command/ProductDisplay?prmenbr=201&prrfnbr=2514&ou...
I believe we have SEVU equipment for sale here?!?!?!?!
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Thanks FG, Amazing how Ken only tells half the story with the lawsuit against Rich. Ken is doing the same with the X-10 stuff.
Wasn't that last X-10 post of Ken's spam??? Why wasn't it deleted???
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I stand corrected on the form 4 issue. Sorry about that, I never claimed to know the SEC rules!!!
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I could be wrong, but I thought another form had to be filed with the SEC once a 144 sale takes place.
No, I don't expect you to get their brokerage statements!!!
Yes, these are just proposed sales, and that link does not in any way, shape, or form say that ANY shares were sold at all.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
They filed for 144, but where is the actual sale. Form 144 filing is for PROPOSED SALE, please provide a link to the actual sale of shares, then we can talk.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I hope everybody is keeping an eye on the MM's. We should be expecting some good news, based on the latest PR's, and we WANT the market to set the price, not some shorters.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Keep a very accurate log, FG.
I believe it to be very possible for some parties to seek legal action. You hear things around and want to tread softly. Everybody should understand that any person that is not an officer of a company can come after anybody with guns-a-blazin'.
I thought Schoffer's post was pushing the limits, but not worthy of being hidden. We have all come to "take care of" those people that present facts with no evidence. This all makes for good discussion, but lets not attack anybody that is not an officer of the company.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I am not sure about the SEC thing, but the other stuff you mention about SecureView being assembled and Rich in Taiwan, I can also verify personally. I agree with the others here that any of us knowing that much detail about an SEC investigation must be questioned and verified through an independent channel. I can verify the other two "facts" presented though.
I don't know that we will see a Taiwan deal yet or any other OEMs, but now that there is a product available we can get some contracts. I bet most big contracts required the production of SecureView to be underway, that (IMO) is what the $9 million in backorders does for SEVU.
I don't like to give investment advice, but IMO SEVU under $5 is a great deal.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Amazing that I reply to this twisted perception.
You should be in politics by the way you change what I say or maybe a journalist.
It is this simple, I was not giving a disclaimer to the PR, but refuting your statements about SEVU not following through on the PP. I had a little bit of evidence, although it isn't much but hey, as to the validity of the PP.
Been other hoaxes, oh my gosh is that twisting...reminds me of the movie twister...no wait, there wasn't that much twisting in the movie.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
PS. what did you say in your last reply to me that got it hidden?????
I agree absolutely about the $1.5 million, that is why I said I wanted proof too. But, I know from simply talking with SEVU that it is not a hoax.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Thanks, printmail01, but I am not familar with the SEC regs at all.
I wonder what percentage of the shareholders must be notified and attend the meeting? If it is under 80%, well that would be easy for SEVU. About 80% of the total SEVU shares are controlled by just a few insiders, so those people could be meeting. Although it seems like there would be an official filing with the SEC, and I haven't heard anybody mention this.
Don't give me too much credit for being knowledgeable, I just have a very good memory and keep my eyes and ears wide open.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
The latest PR is not hype and is presented as fact and will be FACT until not delivered.
I would also like some more info on the 1.5 million PP. I heard discussions of this while I was at the SEVU office, but didn't get anything specific. It was definitely not a joke, but not sure when it is/has happened.
But how important is the 1.5 million PP when they will ship 9 million in backorders in two weeks???
It may be a broken record from your viewpoint of the glass being half empty, but not bad from the half full glass perspective.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
A stockholders meeting has already been discussed for June.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I will double that bet.EOM
Hey printmail01, they never said the units for backorder were shipping today, April 26th. Duh!!! May 7th man. Please keep up on the past PR's, I suggest you "catch back up".
And the "lots of sellers as of late", come on, please read Brettin's previous posts and discussion with FG. The MM shorting the stock just changed names and has a new partner. This is all being reported to the proper authorities.
JHMO, TAfirehawk
Can't we all agree to disagree?
Can't we all just get along?
I thought we were supposed to talk about SEVU here, what a waste.
Does anybody think the new camera will help sales? I am not sure it is a great benefit, but surely doesn't hurt.
We still need to see some contracts coming in. Good to address the backorder and get some CASH, but we need GREAT news, not just expected news.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
This is absolutely ridiculous!!!
I watched the two of you go through the off topic discussion. FG asked that it be taken off thread after about 5-6 posts from the two of you combined. It was very civil and NEEDED.
Starting off topic discussions isn't bad, just don't flood the board. Man, everything is over-reacting around here and exagerrating.
FG, where is the link to the new moderated thread????
JMHO, TAfirehawk
New PR looks good. We are finally seeing some of those "promises" being delivered. Nice to see SEVU coming through finally, just too bad we all had to go through the last 6 months.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Exactly, that is why I think they should concentrate on those things talked about last year instead of working too hard on new stuff. Although, Rich is concentrating on R&D, until he takes the new CEO position at the other company, so he is more inclined to talk about "the future" instead of the present.
They already have a large product line, but no product or contracts. So why do they need anymore products.
I guess we will see when May 7th comes, just two weeks away. SEVU should have a good PR around that time. It would be nice if they released a JOINT PR!!!
JMHO, TAfirehawk
OK, Golfnut, lets talk about SEVU.
With talk about the Vegas show, I believe SEVU should be concentrating on finishing existing sales calls. Drumming up new business is important for Q3 and Q4, but lets get this ball rolling in Q2.
I also feel the same about new products like the 100W bulb. It may be a great thing, but I feel that SEVU may spread its thining resources to far. Lets hope they focus real strong on getting some of the year 2000 promises delivered before the end of Q3.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Vegas this week....wow this is really dusting off some brain cells.
Actually, I thought somebody mentioned it here. It may be some Home Tech show, if my memory serves me well, which it doesn't always. Seems like we discussed it here briefly, while you were gone SH. Electronics and Automation for the Home, seems like it dealt with residential though.
If that is all it is, well it doesn't seem like a priority to me.
I heard nothing about it at SEVU, but hey, I didn't ask about it either.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
As far as I know, they could be in Vegas this week, but Rich is in Taiwan right now, as he said in the post I linked.
I was referring to another meeting in Vegas two weeks ago while I was in St. Pete. I thought they were meeting with somebody about Taiwan, but I could have my signals crossed. There was definitely a meeting in Vegas, but could have been with anybody.
If you want to know where they are, just ask SEVU.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
In reference to the Taiwan deal...
Rich stated earlier on this board that he was going over there to meet with them. He is currently there this week.
I am going out on a limb here, but since they are meeting this week right after meeting in Las Vegas, IMO we should see something positive happen real soon.

JMHO, TAfirehawk
Thanks for the update Brettin. Please continue this great service, I don't have level 2 on my Datek account yet. I am too cheap to spend the $10....would rather buy $10 of SEVU!!!
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Ken, please provide more detail/links to info about Rich being sued and not making payment to somebody by stock. I am interested in getting the facts on this issue and I am not bashing you, but would like to investigate this on my own.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I agree Brettin, I also believe that some longs and insiders will be looking to pickup any shares they can get at this bargain basement price.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Good point Seahag, Bob should explain himself, but I am sure he won't. I did not follow the SI board, so I have no pre-conceived notions as to his purpose. I suppose I believe in people first. But, I also trust "the regulars" here, so I will be watching closely.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
I don't think Admin Bob was bashing the company at all. Please reserve these attack on bashers when some person actually deserves it.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
One thing to consider lizard, when this "cleansing clarification" occurs, the stock may jump real fast. Some people waiting may lose a golden opportunity right now to buy real low. This is no way, shape, or form investment advice, just looking from the other side of the fence.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Madhatter, just because things didn't happen as you had forseen, why should the original plan be abandoned?
I don't see why in 2001 that the SecureView should go straight to Wally-World and in 2000 we didn't want it going there.
Geesh.
Amazing how people are impatient these days. Instant coffee, instant meals, instant movies and instant millionaires.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Absolutely bigbizz, but the only important one is his personal desire to see it succeed. Yes, his financial interest in the company is very large, but I believe he doesn't need the money and cares more about it from the personal satisfaction perspective.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Bill, did you consider the back orders for SEVU? What if these numbers were "included" in the revenue equation? Wouldn't this make the advertising justifiable?
Seems to me that it is money well spent that did not show up on FY 2000 revenue. I believe we will see huge revenue for almost no advertising money in FY 2001.
Yes, there is a potential conflict of interest, but there is also the potential for great savings. Tough call from an outsiders perspective and unless you email SEVU, don't expect and answer.
By the way, Rich already stated on this board that all these questions should be emailed to SEVU, so don't expect a response from him. And hey, this goes for you to KEN. Rich knows how to get on with his life and get on with future business. I feel sorry for everybody living in the past, please learn from it, but don't live there. Live in the present and hope/plan for the future.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
OT: This is a very trying time for the IHUB concept.
It is sad to see, but this board will be the next SI or RB. Those of us that like discussions that are civil and factual, will just find or create another board. This "other" more civil board will meet the demands of 90% of the population and be welcomed by them. Pretty soon the "loser" 10% will find they are talking to themselves on the old board and come looking for others to talk to. A vicious circle, but inevitable I am afraid. I guess this is the facts of net life.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
The Mustang Cobra part of that wasn't anymore off topic than the ENTIRE POST FROM PRINTMAIL01.
Rich's car is #721 of 1000 SVT Cobras for that year, I saw the certificate after I drove it.
We could have a long discussion on this, but this is SEVU message board, but my 2001 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am SLP Firehawk is WAY better than the Cobra of 1994.
JMHO, TAfirehawk
Well printmail01, here are a few things I have seen from visiting the St. Pete area in response to your post. Here is a copy of the "meat" of your post:
McBride Holdings, bought it. He also aquired a travel
agency. We're booking some tickets through them.
Swapped the Hawker for a Falcon 50, bought a new
house that looks like a Hyatt Hotel. Traded in the
450 Jet Ranger for a new Long Ranger. Sold the Jag
and is driving a cream colored Bently. I just don't
see where seaview could have paid for any of this?
Travel agency, partially true - Rich is looking at some agencies for sale that he wants to buy. Yes, he wants to own a travel agency.
He did not complete the deal on the Falcon. He still has the Hawker. The deal for the Falcon probably didn't complete for money reasons.
The house is not like a Hyatt Hotel, but yes is very nice. The house, IMO, isn't as nice as some others on the street he lives on. But, it does have a simply FANTASTIC view of the gulf. Location, location, location makes this house nice.
He does not currently own a helicopter to my knowledge. He was borrowing one and looking at buying one, but hasn't completed that deal either. Just as buying the Falcon didn't go thru, this didn't either probably because of the money needed at SEVU.
No, the Jag is not sold, or at least he wasn't looking to sell it while I was there two weeks ago, guess it could have been sold by now. His other car is a limited edition Mustang SVT Cobra from 1994. Not nearly as nice as the Jag or even my Pontiac Firehawk, but a nice red convertible car.
I hope this clears a few of these items up for everybody here.
