What does any of that have to do with Fred's background? For example: "Fred's background: links provided <A HREF="http://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/lr16842.htm"" target="_new">http://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/lr16842.htm"</A> Not one mention of Fred or ASTN in that link. Also... Warning: You at high risk to click on a link to anyone's personal website as they can grab your IP and ISP information. Sara
