20% stock dividend-Who cares? When you take a piece of crap and split it up into smaller pieces it's still the same piece of crap. I noticed you fail to post the default news from 03/02/06 http://biz.yahoo.com/e/060302/hybt.ob8-k.html and any other uninformed person who planning on buying HYBT should read these articles published by an award winning Dow Jones journalist. http://www.newratings.com/analyst_news/article_1105666.html

and on Hybrid and Frito Lay...NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Hybrid Technologies Inc. (HYBT) must really think that
investors are in the market to buy a bridge.

This small developer of battery-powered vehicles, which has issued
exaggerated press releases in the past, published another misleading release
Friday in which it said that Frito-Lay Inc., the snack food unit of PepsiCo
Inc. (PEP), had agreed to purchase a fleet of lithium cars. Hybrid Technologies
also said in the release that it and Frito-Lay entered into a preliminary joint
marketing and public relations partnership after executive meetings at
Frito-Lay's headquarters in Plano, Texas.

Turns out that neither Frito-Lay nor PepsiCo authorized that release.

"Any meeting held between Frito-Lay and Hybrid Technologies would have been
exploratory only," said Frito-Lay spokesman Charles Nicolas, adding that
Frito-Lay has asked Hybrid Technologies to retract the press release.

Scott Meehan, a lawyer for Hybrid Technologies, said told Dow Jones Newswires
that the press release had been approved by PepsiCo. Meehan provided Dow Jones
with copies of two emails written by Frito-Lay employees.

According to one email dated Nov. 22, Frito-Lay had "processed the invoice of
$100,000 for the purchase of Hybrid vehicles." It also said its next two steps
were to get one Smart car delivered as soon as possible and a "Hybrid
Technologies facility tour and test drive of Hybrid vehicles on Nov. 30, 2005."
In the other email dated Dec. 2, one Frito-Lay employee is asking a press
spokesman about his thoughts regarding a vendor's (presumably Hybrid
Technologies) desire "to communicate the following press release which is
factually accurate." A document attached to that email was not forwarded by
Meehan and it's unclear whether that document was in fact the press release
later issued by Hybrid Technologies.

But Frito-Lay spokesman Nicolas said that "under no circumstances would a
press release like (the one issued by Hybrid Technologies) have been authorized
or even considered." Nicolas said that Frito-Lay told Hybrid Technologies not
to issue the press release before it was disseminated by several corporate
services.

Nicolas said that while Frito-Lay had at one point considered purchasing two
to four vehicles from Hybrid Technologies, Frito-Lay had now ended discussions
regarding this matter and that no money was paid to the electric car company.

The spokesman said Hybrid Technologies' publication of the release over its
objections was in part responsible Frito-Lay's decision not to move forward
with the hybrid vehicles company.

As reported in an "In The Money" column on Nov. 17, on two previous occasions
Hybrid Technologies has issued misleading press releases that were disputed by
some of the companies or people mentioned in them.

On Nov. 2, Hybrid Technologies announced an "historical partnership" with
Volkswagen America which involved a deal to "jointly produce a lithium-powered
concept vehicle to be utilized by Volkswagen."
A VW spokesman told Dow Jones that his company only signed a letter of intent
with Hybrid Technologies. He said that VW didn't approve the press release
which he said "overstated things." The release disappeared from Hybrid
Technologies' Web site after Volkswagen asked that it be retracted.

On April 6, Hybrid Technologies said its "inaugural R-Car, number 001, has
found a new home with Tonight Show host and car aficionado Jay Leno."
Not so, said Leno. "I'm not connected to it and have no interest in it," Leno
told Dow Jones. "I'm a car guy. I get calls and I look at things. That's it,"
Leno said, adding that his attorney told Hybrid Technologies to stop using his
name.

Hybrid Technologies' stock, which trades over the counter, was recently
trading at $6.77 a share, down 4.4%, or 31 cents.

Press releases aside, there are plenty of reasons for investors to shy away
from Hybrid Technologies.

As noted in the November "In The Money" column, Hybrid Technologies,
previously known as Whistler Investments Inc., has no revenue, not much cash
and about $4.3 million in liabilities and has fallen behind on some of its
obligations. The company carries a warning in its financial statements from its
auditors raising "substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as
a going concern."
