Again, care to share what specifically you have to explain why Dan is a "dummy?" Personal experience? Past business dealings? Anything tangible other than just sitting here typing "WOLF!!!"

I certainly do not mind negative opinions about this stock - I am concerned about the freefalling price - but can you at least explain something and not just clutter the board with crazy comments?

You're 10 cent hysteria prediction of today was of course for effect, and you continue to trumpet that. Just step up and put forth something of substance, or just get lost. Plenty of room for negativity, just make it something worthwhile.

And at the end of March, you were predicting $4 for this share price? Always bashing Finch, now. What exactly happened, and why do you make such comments about Finch? Previous experience, or what? Hopefully this post will stand, because the comments being made here do matter as a part of Due Diligence. Management is possibly the most imporant part of this assessment.

Down to 10 cents tomorrow? I wouldn't bet on that one...a vested interest in picking up some shares at these levels, perhaps?

That is my understanding, as well. He responded to my question by saying they are still getting things prepared for that.

Pretty amazing, really. Pinkies or no...you need to have some reality in an investment, don't you?

It would seem that for a long time now the permits and moving towards production has been a lower precedent for the "company." Common sense should tell you that until they do anything with a permit - and it still has not been refiled (unless they don't want to mention that to anyone) - there is nothing to deal with here.

Not sure of the financials release timing. All he typed to me was "soon." Maybe the same day as the U.S. contract? lol.

Wow, I would think that looking at the stock and doings some homework would be exactly what he would NOT want prospects to do...

Honestly, my e-mails were not of the constructive kind - ha. In fact, they were pretty accusatory and negative to his responsibilities to shareholders. He did not make me feel any better, but he was merely responding in a defensive manner - which was expected. He maintains that the selling is being done by DLC Capital which is still owed $200K. So, I would not anticipate any possible share price rise until $200K of shares are sold at fractions of a penny per share. But maybe I am missing something, I dunno.

He said to watch for the filings which are coming soon for the true story. He also said we would get a U.S. deal soon - which is par for the course. He said he was going to mention our absence on the Giles Communications Website to them. I just found that a little sad, I guess.

Our little hobby horse remains in the stable. Nothing new or positive to report - just more of the same. And we know where that gets us. Maybe someday a show will turn up in U.S. markets. Until then, we'll never have a shot at much. He made no mention of the Asian or British revenues that were/are supposed to be used to buy up market shares. And so it goes.

I thought I'd check and see how excited Giles Communications is to be representing us in the public relations arena...

They are apparently so excited they forgot to put us up as being a member of their "Client Showcase" page.

Nice to see them working so hard to get our name out there...

I have enchanged an e-mail banter with him the past couple of days - nothing worthwhile or new to report...would mention anything that was. Just thought I'd let you guys know that one of the few here holding out any hopes (me...ha) was really negative to him. Not that any of it matters, just sayin.

I don't think there's any disconnect. Hope and thinking positive reports mean possible future success does not translate into a precipitous rise in share price. I don't anticipate this stock to rise - or even hold price - without solid contractual commitments of a substantial nature.

Most of the statements and info posted here comes from interested shareholders who are interested in digging for info, and talking things up. Nothing unrealistic being posted here, I don't think. Just high hopes based on what seems to be a good product and good connections. My opinion, of course.

For anyone that remains critical of Finch and saying that he has done nothing, I'd say this recap says otherwise. Of course, nothing firm yet, but having meetings in such short order with so many big players really sends a signal that they are working hard. I still think this is the snowball effect scenario. One big one nailed down, and the rest fall into place.

And that - as many of us know - could be big.

No reason to get out of this stock right now, in my opinion. And several good reasons to stay or ante up more.

Good luck, and thanks for the info.

Yeah, I'm sure "it" will be more interesting than the one you claimed on January 11 was coming down the pipeline...

"As I said earlier about news/announcement coming soon probably on friday afternoon. I got a little more confirmation that it's coming very soon. I don't have an exact time yet but make sure your in by Friday though. I have another buy on the bid right now for the weaker hands when they shake off. I'll keep everyone informed as soon as I hear something." – Jed

I guess the excitement you expected then was Clayton telling everyone the permit process was more difficult than he led everyone to believe when he was pumping share purchases?

Again, just keeping it all in perspective...

Anybody else think a reverse split is as inevitable as I do?

God, please don't put me through another one of those...

Anyone have real time trades right now? A lot of big sells, or just a couple, or what? Drama over the last hour or so...and not the good kind!

I have to say, I kind of expected SOMEthing of a contractual nature to be announced in the last couple of weeks. Have nothing to go on, I just thought it might happen. Still positive, but I've seen this stock drift painfully downwards, and I'm definitely holding at a loss. Good luck to all.

And this kind of posts are looked at as positive, helpful ones around here that deserve to stand. And so it goes.

On the contrary, AL, I don't wish you any bad luck or losses. I hope everybody here makes some money. I don't think of investing as something for me to make money at other people's expense, but to each their own.

Food for thought for anyone that can look at things objectively, not that many are hungry for objectivity here.

And yes, I am still holding shares. A paltry, reduced amount thanks to the company, at a paltry price, thanks to, well, the company, I guess.

Sure, I received a very informative update from Clayton, which said the expected...

• They are riddled with issues left to us by previous management.

One could ask, who was the previous management?

• Because of that, progress has been slowed, "but we have now neared completion of the initial phase one of the turn around process."

- Evidently phase one was a doozy, eh?

• The permits and continued operations at JPP are a priority for them, and they will be providing updates in the near term.

What continued operations? lol.

And my personal favorite... • They are in a QUITE period, due to recent advances and are limited at what they can disclose at this time.

A QUITE period? It wouldn't be so funny if it was not a repeated mistake in several places and "updates"...

Now, I ask you...does this sound more like someone who actually has something going on (considering what has been promised and accomplished so far), or someone who is a PR agent that named themself the CEO of a new shell company a while back?

You be the judge. Not saying anything untrue, personal, or bashing. Just typing reality. Hopefully some people will sell some of their recent purchases and lock in some quick profits here. Long term performance here has not been kind to many.

Good luck to all.

I do have to agree that if our "leader" is supposedly best at patents, this is not a good thing for this company. Dismal result, if that is as "unique" as our big time process is...

However, in my opinion, as long as it takes for the permitting process to complete, at best it will be a long time before anything good could come from that. How many permits have we filed for, and how many have we had approved in the past few years?

Should be an interesting afternoon...

I find it interesting that with a strong increase in volume (is that normal in other companies across the board right before a SHM?) and this patent info leaking out that the price is holding. Perhaps there is some good news to release here.

I dunno. Going to hold my remaining shares, and see what happens. I can't get hurt too badly now that I sold off a bunch a while back.

Good luck to all of us.

I am not holding my breath. I am breathing comfortably and have been holding for quite a while. Excited to see what the new company will have in store for my share price in the coming months.

I am satisfied with what has happened here in positioning the company. No idea if we will hit the market or not, but I'm comfortable.

No, I haven't. I will see if I can find something out. I e-mailed Pagnano for a general update the other day, and never got anything back.

Completely ignorant question here, maybe you guys/gals can help. The comment "there was 85% buys today." What exactly does that mean? There were more people buying than selling? Don't you have to have a buyer and a seller on each transaction? Or does that encompass one person selling off a lot of shares - which are broken up to other individuals who buy smaller purchases?

Thanks...just trying to learn "the small stuff."

C'mon guys...let's lighten it up a bit. From a person who has three family members either die or are currently dealing with cancer...you are way out of line. Knock it off. I have no problem with people railing on Pagnano - it is deserved, but use some decorum on a public board, please.

Wow, look what the cat dragged in...lol...how goes it, Zero? Peace, brother.

Yeah, paper, pretty much seems like a one-pronged approach (losing money) to me...lol.

But, moving forward, etc. Right? Good luck to you. Hope you can make some back, somehow.

lol...a "quite" period? Quite...lol.

An e-mail. I had sent one yesterday to my former investor relations person, and the e-mail bounced back to me, guess she is no longer with the company. Then sent one to info@novak, and got one back from Clayton.

Exciting news from Clayton:

I've just been informed from the chief that "We are currently making all of the proper steps and will be putting out updates shortly," regarding the re-submission of the permit.

Glad to know that after all of this time...they are now "making all the proper steps"...towards re-submitting a permit request.

For those of you pinning your hopes on mining gold anytime in the near future, I guess you'll have to wait a bit. Should be some interesting updates coming out soon, eh?

dc, are you currently a shareholder of AIDO? If not, why are you so focused and confrontational here? I doubt you've lost much money if you are a shareholder, and I only notice posts from you since the last part of March. Maybe you've been in the stock from a longer time, I don't know.

Nothing wrong with the other side of the fence/story, but why so negative?

I think your assessment of the price performance is spot on. Good luck to you on the back end of that.

I've never much considered the concerns of an R/S here, but your analogy in many ways makes some real sense in attracting a CEO or some such thing. I do remember sitting at these sad levels before, though, and seeing a rebound, with different circumstances, to be sure.

I moved much of my holdings here elsewhere, so I'm not nearly as concerned as I once was. I will probably always have some interest here, as my hopes for what this company can accomplish are still alive. With what I have now, though, I'm afraid I would never attend Skooby's party, had he ever held one. Man, remember those days? (ha.)

Apparently so. The PRs for them come from Novak, which Clayton handles the PR work for. I remember them being highly touted by Clayton in his Novak reports.

I only bring it up when people ask me specifically about it. I agree, people should know what they are getting into at these levels, that's why an even give and take should be even more important on a board. I wish you well, too. Have a great weekend.

I have a VERY small position here, minute in respect to my original purchase which morphed into this shell. It's small because of the poor performance of the share price, the "management," and the reverse splits that simply took away shares when the price could not hold ground at all after the R/S.

So, the fact remains, that if this company ever turned into anything, I'd hope to regain a small part of what I lost. Doesn't make any sense to sell what I have at this ridiculous level, for the reduced shares that I have left.

But I do watch the show...always good entertainment.

It's only a big deal in the sense that I remain a shareholder (beyond repair) and continue to care about what has happened here to a lot of people, both in the past and present, and what might happen to future investors. Of course I care a little about what you, and some others here have posted about me, but in the big picture of the Drake investment, that's not a big deal. It's just silly how some people were so adamantly protective of their positions here, to the point of hiding anything of value opinion wise. Had there been an honest give and take, some people may have saved some money.

The past was never allowed to be talked about here, but I assure you it's eerily similar to the present.

I REALLY hope Malcolm is aggressively questioned about the partnership with Stonebridge. This remains the single biggest question mark on the page for me. What is he/they doing for us? Is it about his connections or his PR acumen? Is he/they a large shareholder, thanks to the partnership?

Still so, so strange to me, Malcolm, Shizzle-my-nizzle.

It's no big deal for me personally, Curious. It's never been about me, about bashing, about anything other than what can be plainly seen. There are plenty of facts here that have always been available for common sense review to anyone who cared to try to get past the group hug.

Again, I've said all along that this could be something real, just like the other companies previously could have been. But there's a big difference between hoping for things to happen, and things actually happening. Something could still happen, one way or the other.

But most know that if they care to admit it to themselves. We should all be on these boards to find out information and make (or avoid losing) money. In time, the agendas are usually found out, good and bad. That's why both sides of the discussion are ALWAYS important, and what these boards are supposed to be for.

Peace.

Regardless of how this shakes out, I wish all of you good luck in your endeavors. Hopefully none of you are taking too extensive a loss to this point here. A buyout of whatever shell this is would not surprise me...I fully expected this to morph into something else when the most ardent supporter(s) became quiet at the same time Clayton did. It certainly would not be the first morph in this history, nor, I fear, will it be the last.

Again, good luck to all.
